I'm down to 70% trustworthiness on that stupid trust meme?? Yikes. I seriously would do anything for someone, at least in my opinion. Am I a shit? I'd hate to think that was true.
Je pense qu'elle est correct. En français, the swear words are very religious, and quite varied in interpretation. Many would accept maudit tabernac (from tabernacle) as asshole, but "tabernac!" would also be roughly equivalent to "fuck!"
I'm not certain if merde would work though, I'm not sure if it's used as a ... I don't even know the term, but you of course would, mister language person... but a noun describing a person. I'm sure there's a more elegant insult that's equivalent, we'll just have to wait for Vinny to weigh in (since his French is better than yours, mine, and Sarah's combined)

As for the whole tabernac debate, I'm unsure. That's the sort of stuff that they tried to not teach us in school.

And besides, with that cute smile you have, who couldn't trust you?!

"Me, I'd trust him to the end of the world."
"Oh, and when's that, then?"
"About 15 minutes from now."
