I swear like a trooper irl.

It's just something i've grown up around, it's basic vocabulary to me now.

Pokemoerules May 16th, 2009 12:05 PM

What happened to the days when I was such a prude about it?

Same is true for me, actually. I was completely dead-set against the idea of swearing (especially the f-bomb, I thought it was the most evil thing to say), but slowly through my teen years I got over it, and nowadays, as I said previously, I curse like a sailor. I think that as long as they aren't used at inappropriate times or places, they're really just words. I'm a prude about enough things already.

Hehe... I'm a potty mouth. :X

I'm pretty good at not swearing in front of my mom or someone who would be offended by big, bad, naughty words. Around my friends though, we can get pretty vulgar. :D

...censorship is stupid.

Pokeyomom May 16th, 2009 2:17 PM

I try not to indulge in public, because someone spoutin out the F bomb every 2 words is pretty tacky. But as far as the homefront goes, ohhh F yeah.

I really lament the 'gangster' lookin kids who walk around like they are tough stuff cussing every two words. Makes me wanna pop em in the mouth. /end mini rant:D

Cham May 16th, 2009 2:23 PM

I used to swear a bunch and didn't think anything of it, until my non military friends pointed out how much I swear. I've been trying hard to break the habit and I've been doing well over the passed year or so to cuss less and less.

Åzurε May 17th, 2009 7:19 PM

I don't, generally, but it does happen every now and again... never in front of anybody. I'm trying to stop, if only because it could offend someone eventually.

Spearow May 17th, 2009 7:27 PM

I try not to rely on swear words too heavily in daily conversation, just because it's limiting and it can make a person sound unintelligent or even kinda pretentious. Sometimes there's just not any other way to put it, but for the most part I do my best to think of a more specific word before I resort to the vulgar.

When I stub my toe or forget something important, it's a different matter altogether.

Gyro Zeppli May 17th, 2009 7:28 PM

All the time, mang. All the time.

It's like having an accent, I can't control it.

Åzurε May 17th, 2009 7:36 PM

Ah, but you can control it. It's your own head, after all.

Herald Riddler May 17th, 2009 7:40 PM

YEs I swear, but not often and I only do for humor or being sarcastic or joking

Alex May 17th, 2009 7:48 PM

Yes, I do swear both on this site and in real life. It's become a part of my vocabulary which isn't very good, but I also have a friend who hates it so it's fun to do it around him and watch him react. :3

True Reign May 17th, 2009 8:20 PM

I swear when I get a bad grade on a test or when I get hit hard.

It's fun to cuss.

Translator May 17th, 2009 8:24 PM

Well, sometimes I swear and sometimes I don't. :)

Xairmo May 17th, 2009 8:55 PM

**** yeah I do!
In all seriousness, yes I do swear. Not execively, but I swear none the less.

♣Gawain♣ May 17th, 2009 10:39 PM

I don't usually swear, 'cause it'll lessen your reputation. But sometime's and unintentionally, I can't help but swear.

kissing. raindrops May 17th, 2009 10:44 PM

Lol yeah I sure do. I swear in real life. My friends swear a ton too. Some way more than me.

pokerus34 May 18th, 2009 3:24 AM

I SWEAR THAT I DON"T REALLY SWEAR TO SWEAR WHAT TO SWEAR... SO I SWEAR I DON"T SWEAR. I SWEAR I DON"T EVEN KNOW HOW TO SWEAR!

XD- Well really, i don't swear (as of highschool)... I watch what i say... I hate swearing... Swearing always lead me to the wrong and ugly conclusions...

P.S. - Better :) not to swear! :)

Idiot! May 22nd, 2009 7:32 AM

Of course I swear. It's just that I swear in a foreign language so that other people don't know I am swearing.

templekeeper May 22nd, 2009 7:36 AM

No way...if my life depends on needing a colourful word, I'll get a thesaurus. I teach various age groups, and leading double lives is unhealthy. It's better to avoid altogether.

The Red Chain May 22nd, 2009 9:55 AM

Honestly, who doesn't?

With that said, yes I do.

disagreed.

swearing is great! especially since I don't care about what anyone will say to me, it's really rather fun.

any harsh word exists in my dictionary, because to me that's just what they are. they don't offend me.

only bad time to swear is every 2 words... it just then sounds boring and stupid.

s l u g May 22nd, 2009 10:16 AM

Well i dunno but i hate swearing, i kinda find it cheap to use sthat kind of language and i have never sweared ( am being honest ) but on chat's i just put the sign marks like *,@,# e.t.c just for fun, cause lot of my friends do.. and over my place people are always swearing.. a kid in the first grade showed me a finger just because i said him he's cute.. >.<

looks like people love swearing.

Franceschi May 22nd, 2009 10:21 AM

Due to fact I've grown up with three brothers and a mother who is very lax (the same can't be said for my father), it's not surprising I swear.

I swear a lot in real life; although most of the time I don't realise I've done it. Online? Not so much, but that may be because I know the filter is there and I therefore don't bother.

Caelus May 22nd, 2009 11:07 AM

Swearing is a habit of mine that I've been trying to stop for months.
I don't mind using it every once in awhile, but using a lot of swear words in only a short time is what bothers me, so I've been cutting down the swearing.

I don't mind others swearing, just as long as they don't go overboard with it.
