Along the lines of more traditional "cursing" like you mentioned, would you count more modern/internet-popularized examples like "die in a fire" or "get canceraids"?

Seems that sort of curse is still around on the English-centric parts of the web and now that I think about it, I wonder if it's just naturally emergent or if it's partially the result of US/UK English speakers coming into more contact with people from elsewhere where those sorts of curses never went "out of fashion".
