To be appalled by the bad language used on this forum

[moomoo44]

I know I will probably be shot down as I am a newbie on here but I recently found this site whilst searching for something and found the AIBU threads very interesting. I find it intriguing how different people react to the same situation and it really makes you realise that we are not all the same, and the world is better for it.

What I have found so appalling though is the frequent use of swearing throughout these posts. I have been truly shocked by this as it is a forum used mainly by parents. Is this the example to set children?

There is something about swearing in writing which makes it so much worse than in conversation, although that is not nice either. It seems so much more deliberate in writing.

When did it become acceptable to use such language unnecessarily and excessively just for effect?

CuntingWeaselBalls!! ElephantTwatStick & 'welcome'/goodbye OP.

Mine says clue clue...

But yes, it's good that you can swear if you want to. You don't have to, but sometimes 'sugar' just doesn't cut it

I think the OP has gone. To change her name to mitmit99 or something!

Fuck's sake - what a heap of monkey jizz!

This thread has made me laugh nearly as much as the swearing one a while back - and that one was one of the reasons I joined MN.

So DisgustedOfTunbridgeWells MooMoo44, I think you are in the wrong shop. Try the one next door, HUN.

She's gone. Bet it's cos I said nut up or shut up. Ice cold!

Fuck! Another thread where I agree with fabbychic! What is the world coming too

I love the swearing on here and agree that if ya don't like it then go!

I just read STG link.

LMFAO at

'Can we call someone fuckface'?

What if I were to moo at you??

Love the fact that the op has started a thread that will go down as one that is one of the rudest ever! Hilarious!

More swear words ladies please! I love a lady who has a big fat potty mouth!

Scarlet I know what you mean. I am a north londoner and I thought I knew what swearing was all about.

Then I moved to East London.

I am on a whole new level of sweariness now. I live in an Olympic borough. If only it was an event.

After months of seeing the word hanging around mumsnet, I finally decided to google it.

Next time somebody mentions DRAGON BUTTER can they please put a public health warning alongside.

I need a lie down, you bunch of rimjobbingtwatmunchingcandlefuckers.

What bibbity said on page one.
It's a site for adults, so it's not setting any example to children whatsoever.
Just because someone swears like a navvy on a forum doesn't mean they speak that way to their children.
If you don't wish to swear yourself, that's no problem at all.
Some people love swearing: Live and let live.
Lots of people get vital support and information from mumsnet, and many of the nicest, most helpful members swear frequently - it's just their style.

I would never start an AIBU, OP- it brings out the worst in people.

Hah. Twatphone.

Can I smell cowpoo?

I have never googled dragon butter. I have managed to retain my innocence for 5 years

I think I am addicted to MN

I need help though... I dont swear! I cant! No matter how many glasses of wine, I cant do it!

MrsDeVere We currently live near Greenwich in SAAAAAAAAAAARRFF East London...it's pretty much as bad here.

There is nuffink bleedin' bad abaht Saaaarf East Lundun, ScarlettLady01. :o

Come to Glasgow, OP - you'll love it!

Swearing makes me happy. It's good and healthy and cleans out one's tubes.

So ner. ( taunting face emoticon )

Anyway, no kids here, poppet ... The clue's in the name ...
