there is a woman at school who is such a prissy pita that I couldn't resist saying the c word in front of her

[moopdaloop]

no children around and it was relevant to the conversation I was having, although wanker would also have done. The people I was talking to laughed and agreed

I never use the c word normally

ooh no, FM, you mustn't use words like low-class (or chav) as I think some here find it offensive

So only low class people swear

How can anyone be offended by the term 'low-class'? It's 'just a word' after all. lol.

FWIW, I hate the term 'low-class' as much as I loathe the word 'cunt', but some here are not bothered by 'just words', so am aping a poor argument laid down by others here. HTH.

i havent read the entire 7 pages of this thread but i find the C word offensive and i wouldnt consider myself prissy. why would you enjoy making this person feel uncomfortable?

Good on you - I like the c word it's very expressive but bit strong for school perhaps..

How very Anglo-Saxon of you

However context is everything: to use it in a children's playround to upset someone because she's a 'prissy pita' reflects poorly on the OP.

Agree with what some posters have said here. I think swear words used in the right context can be acceptable but using it just to annoy someone is no better than bullying. Just how does it make the op look good?
