What claig says is true Wink

Apart from icooksocks, who let me in on her MN name the other day Grin

You can be subtle and still funny as fuck.

WhereYouLeftIt · 04/06/2011 00:41

I quite like them! Indeed, I still miss Queenoffuckingeverything, which I always imagined being preceded by Because I am. No idea what she namechanged to, I miss that name it made me smile every time I saw it.

As for what it's all about - because we can?

BooyHoo · 04/06/2011 00:43

i haven't noticed. who is doing it? why wasn't i invited to play?

livetolaugh · 04/06/2011 00:46

Go somewhere else then? Not being rude but this is why I like this forum.

It's different!

peeriebear · 04/06/2011 00:51

I have to say it doesn't bother me at all. If everyone did it it'd be dull, but it's only a cunting few. :)

MindyMacready · 04/06/2011 01:05

It's all Simon Cowell innit? All the cunting anyway Grin

mrsdonkeybucket · 04/06/2011 01:12

Yeah, it's all a feckin' fix. Grin

HengshanRoad · 04/06/2011 07:06

Swearwords are just clusters of letters like any other word. Don't be so precious.

sausagesandmarmelade · 04/06/2011 08:33

Dunno...

pushing boundaries, getting a reaction, to be accepted by other likeminded members, showing they don't give a toss, displaying their agression....because they can???

Who knows!

But your as welcome to stay as anyone...

Flisspaps · 04/06/2011 08:33

Icooksocks, I like that one, very clever!

JemimaMuddleFuck · 04/06/2011 08:41

It's cos swearing is big and clever innit.
And I'm a chav with limited vocabulary.

fuckmepinkandcallmerosie · 04/06/2011 08:42

Oh dear.

That's me told off then Wink

Wellnerfermind · 04/06/2011 08:46

It all seems a bit sixth form to me,

'look how daring we are'

Probably not allowed to swear in real life.

fuckmepinkandcallmerosie · 04/06/2011 08:49

I have been on here a long time. I name change regularly. I almost always have a swear word in my name.

And I swear like a trooper in RL.

CadleCrap · 04/06/2011 08:51

I like some of the clever ones - Bupcakesandcunting for example

(quite proud of my own rude word too Grin)

BelovedCunt · 04/06/2011 08:52

i know! i do like this name but sometimes i do offend myself, esp if i am trying to be serious on a thread.

JemimaMuddleFuck · 04/06/2011 08:53

Mine was just a reaction to reading the same books to same child for longer than I could be reasonably expected to tolerate.

Mumswang · 04/06/2011 08:54

I always read your name as slartyfartbeast OP so YABU because in our house fart is a swear word Grin

FannyPriceless · 04/06/2011 08:57

Ooo... I really hope this thread attracts all the sweary-namers!Grin

I'm surprised you say it's a recent thing though. The classic sweary names have been around for ages. AnyFucker, CUNTuesday, etc.
