AIBU

[Curiosa]

Am I being unreasonable to be put off by the amount of swearing on Mumsnet?

YABU to not use a proper thread title in AIBU.

OP's got a thing about language if you advance search her, .

Eatshitderek- you're so right. Not clever to have swear word in your name. Who would do that?

Your username and that first sentence in your second post are making me cringe craddle. I swear because it can be expressive. Just tell your kid there's nothing wrong with hearing it but there is with using it. Jobs a fucking good'un.

andsoimback I'll fucking well swear when ever I cunting well like especially on threads like these

I don't swear in front of DC, but I fucking love a good swear amongst adults. Humans have had swear words since we had language, I wonder the fuck why?!

cockwomble . that is all.

Fucking spot on paulAnka

They're just words. Most intelligent people can amend their language depending on the circumstances.

So, YABFU

Baddogooder- I find it very upsetting. It's all gone to the fuckin dogs.

EatShitDerek 😂

Incidentally, I've heard far worse language in Waitrose than I have in Asda.

Oh shit me. I'm an awful cunt for the swearing, but yeah, I can see why you think it's fucking shitty use of language.

Can you really get banned from Netmums for saying arse? Wow.

develops new ambition in life

Me and DP swear constantly as part of our vocabulary,

I have neversworn in front of my mother as she hates it, and we don't in front of DD. We're adults we choose how to speak how we like and we can control ourselves. Don't get people who swear and people who are rude in asda confused.

andsoimback It's a fucking disgrace, won't someone think of the children?!

You know what word I love?

Cuntychops.

Is excellent.

Is wankbadger swearing?

No more than cuntychops is.

Off you fuck Cuntychops is one of the sayings from here that had me actually sniggering out loud.

I didn't spit my tea out, howl or have tears rolling down my cheeks but I did snigger.

Cuntychops. 👍

I got banned from bounty for saying dildo once.

You couldn't swear there (poor Scunthorpe folk) but everyone just used a little accent over the vowels to get around it. Eventually the entire place imploded and is no more

Much prefer here where you can freely drop a c-bomb without fear of the ban hammer. I've learned some fabulous swear words here so, far from having a limited vocabulary, I've actually expanded it.

So thanks to swearing you have more vocabulary?

Hurrah!
