The current image on Pardon My Klingon is a fairly textbook Ja Faa C; in particular, neither the picture nor the caption do anything to indicate that caption actually is some sort of a swear.

For some examples, I like the last two panels of this Questionable content (although I realize it suffers from qwerty being a real thing in English), or the first panel of this Chainsawsuit. I'm sure there are other picture examples.

The QC example could work provided the text is readable at wiki size (might take some Photoshopping) although I think panels 2 and 3 work a little better.

The current is J3FAAC and needs to go.

Questionable content could work.

Also, yeah, current has to go.

I like swearing Cthulhu for simplicity.

The current one doesn't work. +1 for pulling it.

Bump. Other thoughts?

I have no idea what is going on in the current or how it's an example.

Pull.

I think we have more than enough of a consensus to pull. The question is getting a replacement.

The current's pulled and the page is tagged for this thread.

Anybody else for the first panel from the Chainsawsuit comic mentioned in the OP? Simple, but does the job well enough.
