Poll: Do You Swear?

[oppp7]

A good amount, but not as much as a lot of people.

 

[seryoga]

english is a dead, emotionless language. the only way to really express youself is to swear

 

[DarkenedWolfEye]

I tell people to "Fuck off!" almost as a reflex now, unless it's my parents. Is that a problem, or ...?

I go to a college so needless to say there are at least 3 people i regularly interact with who say the F word in every other sentence, ITS BLOODY STUPID!!! (bloody, you see? not swearing) If people swear all the time it becomes perfectly meaningless and you're left with nothing to show genuine anger except shouting and violence! So what about you? Do you swear?

My father's the same way, he just constantly swear at even the slightest annoyance. "Hey honey you burnt my fucking toast, goddamn it." For a while it was omg he's swearing, but that quickly turned to, omg he's talking again. point is like you said, if you abuse it it loses its meaning, and just sounds stupid and annoying.

I've never really seen the point in swearing, and as such, I don't. It's not because I think it's wrong, but I just don't let myself get angry enough to warrant cussing.=/

 

[crudus]

like a fucking sailor. I don't do it in every sentence like OP said but it is quite frequent. It also depends on the crowd I am in more than anything.

Same here. I'm making a habit of trying to substitute other words for the swears, although this gets more strange looks than if I just swear in the first place -sigh-. :/

My favorite is to swear around children so the parents yell at me which starts an argument. I tell them that I will give them a written apology and money if the convince me that what I did was wrong. They can never do it.

 

[ace_of_something]

Very rarely because I have nieces and nephews that I'm around a lot and mine is the kind of job where I'd get in trouble for casual swearing. (Except in interviews there I swear about as much as the person I'm talking to)

 

[Sakurazaki1023]

I try not to, but when I'm really angry or frustrated about something it slips out...

I also occasionally use it for emphasis... *****

Me cuss? Absolute fucking bullshit!
I dont fucking cuss you cocksucker!

 

[xHipaboo420x]

I tactically deploy the odd swear word into my discourse should the situation call for it.

Helpfully, the situation usually fucking calls for it.

 

[Captain Blackout]

As bloody fucking often as I can.

I've never seen you before, yet you seem really really familiar. Hmmm....

You might recognise me from another site? I use my actual visage as my avatar on a few things, so perhaps that.

[sub]Or maybe, in my bitter search for individual identity, I turned in to some kind of archetypical stereotype...[/sub]

 

[Jezzascmezza]

Only to my grand-parents

 

[Maltyz]

YOU FUCKING HOE!

 

[CloggedDonkey]

Of course I don't fucking swear goddamn it! Why the fuck would you get that fucked up idea?

 

[Nubbinsmustdie]

All teh fookin time....

 

[Hollock]

every now and then, but It ain't no thing.

 

[gilbro7]

I swear most quite a bit when I'm with friends but for some reason I stopped saying shut up unless I'm reeeeaaaallllyyyy angry

 

[OGRC]

I am so guilty of swearing frequently >.> Then again I work in a steel mill and everyone curses all the time. I swear there's some quota or something everyone has to meet each day.....
