Get the Funkmug. A polite way to say fuck when there are people around and you really shouldn't be saying the f-word.
At some reception:
Woman :Funking hell! What is that fat cow wearing again? Can't believe she's with the Vicar.
Friend : Ah funk it,who cares ?
Woman : Looks like your husband does.
Friend : Oh funk,yeah!
Vicar: Ooh did I hear anyone talking about funk ?
Both Women: Funkadeliiic!
and that's how you save the night!

Get the funkingmug. A style of music emerging in the late 1960's blending soul, jazz and R&B, mostly played by African Americans at the time.
These days, most people mistake bands such as Red Hot Chili Peppers and Rage Against the Machine to be funk bands, when they are actually funk METAL bands. There is a lot of difference. These bands simply take the base styles and drum styles used in funk and incorporate them into metal.
REAL funk artists use pretty much the same lineup as a jazz group, which includes saxophones, trumpets, trombones, keyboards/pianos, drums, bass and sometimes guitar.
Examples of real funk artists are:
Herbie Hancock
James Brown
Stevie Wonder

Get the Funksmug. Term to describe something incredibly cool.
Useful in situations where the term "fu*king cool" would be deemed inappropriate and/or where cool just won't hit it.
Add as extra dimension to the term "fu*king cool" because you are doubling up on the cool. There few things cooler than funky.
Best used as an adverb.
