On a related note, there is highly educative book on Yiddish called: "If You Can't Say Anything Nice, Say It In Yiddish" by L.B. Epstein [1].
Yiddish curses put any other language's curses to shame. They use a lot of very well thought analogies. They also sometimes revive a bit of the (lost) history of the Jewish people pre-wwII.
