Myu wife is every bit, if not more foul than me. She's great :)


Nothing like the look on someone's face when they pull something stupid out driving, and a pretty woman calls her a "cunt". They look urprised to say the least :)

urgeok 06-16-2005 05:29 AM

depends why it's being used ..

if its loud obnoxious swearing - like lets say some punk ass kids on a subway - in front of small children - it bothers me because it's pathetic posturing.

if its the only way someone is able to articulate - it bithers me because the person sounds like a dumpster diver.


if it is used in exasperation - as an exclaimation - i can understand... but it's better if someone establishes a measure of intelligence first - otherwise they look bad too ..

I could care less about it. Although it does get annoying in movies like the new Dawn of the Dead and Phone Booth where every other word is fuck:rolleyes:

i once worked with a girl (read: ugly read-headed whale) who was a dullard to put it lightly.

I dropped something and said "Shit"

She took it upon herself to try and put me in my place and said "You know, swearing is a sign of low intelligence".

:mad:

I went a little psycho...

"Swearing is a form of commuication. if it is all you use, then yes, you are stupid, like you. BUT, if you are capable of using other words and choose to use swearing then you are most likely using it because it best articulates whatever you are trying to express, hence 'shit', rather than 'oh heck', because i was frustrated. Now that we have that out of the way, dont ever fucking call me stupid again, because i can talk circles around you, you stupid bitch...."

She never spoke to me again :)

Bree and I should hang out. I'm forever calling other women "cunts" when they piss me off.

I fucking swear...I'm a godamn pirate. Zwoti says he swears more than me, but that's something we'll have to put to the test the next time I go to England.

i swear on occasion - probably too much - but my wife is a bit worse.

once you have a kid it's really hard to turn that switch off ...especially driving

newb 06-16-2005 06:09 AM

Every time I swear when i go home to visit my ma, she'll say something along the lines of "I never was allowed to say things like that in front of my mother." Then she'll just laugh.

I'm pretty lucky... she's the only woman I know who lets her son get away with saying the word "fuck".

Sorry to hear that. But you seemed to be extremely well adjusted considering the disfunctional upbringing.

Yeah....eat my shorts popa!


!?!!?!?......can't get the hang of it.

ChEEbA 06-16-2005 10:23 AM

I don't make an effort to swear during conversation...the majority of the time I DO let fly, is out of exasperation.
Although, there is the occasional profanity thrown around in a colloquial manner...eg: Occasionally saying "shit" instead of "stuff", that kinda thing. Most people just overlook that as being part of everyday speech, I think so long as you don't accentuate it, your modern english speaking person will let it slide.
However, I'm generally pretty well spoken, and polite...so anyone that calls me out on my occasional swearing usually gets called a petty motherfucker.;)
Oh yeah, and I hate it when people don't have the common decency to tone it down some whilst in the presence of young children...it's just rude...

like a fucking docker

barbra 06-16-2005 10:29 AM

some of my favorites are:

fuck face
Fuck tard
cunt bitch
cock sucker
I like using "faggot" at work, paired with cock sucker usually.

Acording to Jonas, the other prep person, I use words that would make a marine blush, but honestly there is no pent up rage with in me at this moment so I can't think of any. I'll try to write down a few at work.

Cussing is alright in my book, pair it with tits and a lougy flying through the air and you've got me at work.

Ooh, you swore! I still say I'm a bigger pirate than you.:D

My dad is really old school so he gets a little ill when I say "fuck" in front of him. The worst I can say would be something that takes the "lord's" name in vain. However, I have heard him yell, "Jesus fucking Christ."

urgeok 06-16-2005 11:14 AM

the only thing i heard my dad say ever are 'horse shit' 'god dammit' and 'jesus christ' interchangeably.

i dont know where horse shit came from as a swear .. eveyone else says bullshit..

fucking weirdo

Haunted 06-16-2005 11:21 AM

Urge...do you find that your kids pick up a lot of swear words at school? How do you handle it?

If, of course, you don't mind me asking.

Ahhh... One of my favorites. Usually said while doing some housework or yardwork, and something unpleasant happens, like trying to fit a 60 inch tub into a 60 inch room......


One i picke dup from 28 Days Later that has been in common use with me lately is "Fucking Hell!" I love that one.

well let me put it this way ...

when he was two we were told by the daycare owner that he was standing on a chair outside in the middle of the playground yelling 'fuck you' over and over again and laughing.

(he's heard us say 'fuck' - mostly me when driving - but never fuck you)

he seems to know whats right or wrong but he does pick up some stuff from kids ..

one kid had him saying :

i'm sex-ay, i'm sex-ay

another one taught him the word buttocks ... which he pronounces but-tocks ...

but he doesnt say the bad words now because he already heard them from us and knows its wrong ...


just the other day i had to say to him :

'for fucks sakes, you know you're not supposed to say shit !!'

MoonLit Meadow 06-16-2005 11:35 AM

I think it really just depends on the situation. Generally, I don't do it. I just don't find it necessary. Seems as though when I DO swear it's among friends and it's just for a laugh ;) Any other time is just when I'm really angry about something...which doesn't happen too often.

I agree with Urge and I think a few others who said they can't stand it when it's in front of small children. I totally agree. It's not cute at all to me when toddlers go around saying shit, etc...and I HATE when their parents think it's funny and/or cute ;) Maybe once...after that...not so much.

How do we mechanize this duel? I vote no insults, but rather raw and creative uses of the viler forms of language. Oh, and it has to be in English, as well.
