What are some interesting euphemisms in Russian language? Like when around babushka?
I'm asking this because, if I'm ever around a younger and more expressive Russian, I want to be able to say the sneaky form of (or the euphemism of) a slang or curse word. That would really be gettin it in my book.

Maybe the most widely used word is "Блядь" (whore, slut, bitch). In whole it means a woman of sexual work, but Russian people often use that word without any context, just to express any dissatisfaction, indignation, or fright, even pain. As euphemism you can use "Бляха-муха" (wodr-for-word, Plate-Fly)

It seemed that people here mostly don't understand what does euphemism mean)) Guys,euphemism is neutral word used instead of rude! I suppose that this link will answer on your question in details.

Блин instead of блядь, пиздец.
Фигня, хрень = хуйня.

Вместо "х.й" (dick) - хрен, хер (уже само стало ругательным).
ёперный театр, еще)

Here're some phrases instead of the well-known "блядь": ёкарный бабай, ёж твою медь, ядрёна вошь, писец, пипец, ёшкин кот.
If not to say about curse words only, then it's more polite to say пожилой, зрелый instead of старый; нетрезвый instead of пьяный; нуждающийся instead of побирушка or бедный; одно место instead of уборная; etc.
