Swearing

[lynmilne65]

AIBU to detest the amount of swearing on posts ? IMO it adds nothing and makes me think posters are uneducated to do this.

Netmums is less sweary I believe.

I think studies have suggested that sweary folk are actually more likely to be intelligent.

Of course, every other time this thread has been done, it’s filled up with increasingly sweary posts.

I don’t know why you get so upset. I like the inventive lengths people go to with their swears - cockwomble being a particularly favourite new word I’ve learned lately.

And many posts?

I enjoy swearing, unless it's used in an aggressive way, or just filling in because the speaker can't articulate any other words.

It's not the words that are offensive, it's the intent behind them. And you don't need to swear to be offensive.

Educated to fucking degree level.

Swear words can be fantastic for emphasis!

I love a bit of cursing to be honest. If every other word in a sentence is fuck then it's not nice but a well phrased expletive is good fun and shows a well rounded vocabulary in my opinion.

No, intelligent people are more likely to swear. Don’t you read the fucking papers?

I'm terribly fuck

Oops fucking sweary and terribly fucking educated.

I’m a swearer. If it adds nothing then I’d conjecture it detracts nowt and all. Jog on. Politely.

I know, it's fucking awful isn't it. Nethuns don't like swearing, they are ----->> that way,

I'm a big fan of swearing - I do however absolutely fucking loathe all the stupid abbreviations on here!

I fucking hate swearing.

Yes you fucking ABU.

Yeah, I’m a fucking postgrad cunt and you don’t see me using bastard swearing. Yawn. If you don’t like it, feel free to fuck right off.

MN describes itself as 'the one with the swearing', so it's not reasonable to be surprised that it does exactly what it says in the tin, and that it has a community which is happy with that.

Other sites, which do not permit searing, are readily avaiobake for those who do not want to read it.

swearing adds nothing to a decent argument. A waste of words. Use only in extremes, eg a brick falling on your foot. It is for extreme emotion, not casual banter. Boring

What a load of cock and bull, there have been many studies to show that fucking swearing shows a higher intelligence and a wider bastard vocabulary. Ps OP cuntytits are you a troll?

I don't think I swear a lot but sometimes it feels fucking good to tell someone to fuck the fuck off, and then when they've fucked off they can fuck off a bit more. You are being fucking unreasonable.

Anyone else love the kings speech when Bertie fucking swears? Cuntflaps is a weird swear word for me fuckgoblins is hilarious, cocknobblers made me laugh. anyone else heard of bitchychesticles?

I'm terribly fuck

Oh me too!!

I'm an adult, I can handle a bit of swearing. I know where the door is if I don't like it.

Oh good, yet another one of these threads-not like we haven't gone over this before... Oh wait, yes we fucking have
If you're not a fan then I'd suggest you give Netmums a try, apparently they're less sweary but more cliquey folks.
