Hi -
I am looking to have a passage from the book, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil translated from English to German.

LADY CHABLIS: "It's like my mother always said: Two tears in a bucket, motherf*** it"

I believe I have correctly translated the first part:
"Es ist, wie meine Mutter immer gesagt hat: Zwei Risse in Einem Eimer..."

I hope someone can help me with the motherf*** it part. I don't know how to translate it other than breaking down each word which I assume isn't correct 'slang'.

Thanks,
E
