AIBU..to ask that Mners who want to use foul language in their OP could warn readers first...

well?

< polite cough >

Anyfucker, thank God you showed up. I love swearing.

On that note, thecrackfox - your name really creeps me out. I can't help but squirm every time I see it!! (sure you are a lovely non scary person really)

General swearing (ie not AT anybody) is awesome and fine. I guess it must be quite annoying for people with small children that can read - but alas, this is life, and I can cope.

Is anyone else finding it really hard not to post profanity on the thread.
I keep seeing it in active convos and mentally spitting four letter postings...

probably just me

TBH, given the topics that are discussed on mumsnet, small children that can read should preferably not be within screen distance anyway, imo. Swearing is probably the least of that.

Quite true RubberDuck. The thread I started about DCat1's Brazilian would distress pet lovers too.

yabu ffs

Do you consider "Arse" to be swearing anyone? It is not real swearing is it?

I rarely use fowl language (had this been done? didn't bother reading)

Surely fowl language should be restricted to the chicken-keepers topic....

Is water-fowl language as bad?

fuck-a-duck!!!

mwah-ha-ha-haaaaaaa

OI... I'm a monogamous duck, I'll have you know

AIBU? To ask that MNers who want to use naff Daily Expressesque cliché in their OPs (and whinging responses which only demonstrate their own lack of imagination) to one of the richest forms of expression in our language just fuck right off?

Or not?

Oh fucking ell, if we as adults, cant swear and cuss on MN, where it wont be heard, where can we?

Just hide the thread if you dont like, your
eyes are not going to fall out if you see bastard/cunt/twat/fucker in text

Futue te ipsum! Si hoc legere scis nimium eruditionis habes and i really mean it

YABFU

I don't care if it's general. I think it's not on ol' boy if it's directed at a particular poster. eg, fuck off liffey, not ON. Imho!

Accipe fucking hoc!!

believer07, have started a new thread for you!Here
