You lot are definitely more cunty than ever before.

[OvO]

I couldn't sleep so decided to do this. [insert loser emoticon here]

I used 01/01 - 01/02 for the years 2004-2012.

Cunt was used this many times;

2004- 0
2005- 1
2006- 3
2007- 17
2008- 129
2009- 63
2010- 115
2011- 356
2012- 498

Also "fuck" grew from 18 mentions in Jan 04 to 6,277 mentions in Jan 2012.

"Cock" went from 14 mentions in Jan 04 to 498 in Jan 2012.

BUT "cock" is down this year from 585 for Jan 2011.

"Message deleted by Mumsnet" has gone from 2 in Jan 2004 up to a whopping 847 in Jan 2012!

I do have all the fuck and cock stats for every year but didn't want to kill you all with boredom. If I haven't already.

Thanks for this OP, it's given me face ache

A pie chart would be absolutely the wrong kind of chart for this piece of research 📊 📈

When did the message poster start? That must have had a deflationary impact on cunt as the 'Cat me...' phrase became redundant.

There are a lot of cunts in chat, which will have been deleted 90 days after first appearing.
Love this thread.

What a fantastic thread, op you are genius! I will add a cunt and a cock towards your data

Bravo, OP, nice work.

Love this post. I do have an interested in cock though

Please post the You're a Complete Cunt Song, again Vanilla.

Can we have a Cunt Amnesty, MNHQ? A Cuntnesty, if you will.

2008's sharp rise in swearing is explained entirely by the arrival of my DC2. Sorry for setting a bad example.

I have a little happy moment every time this thread reappears.

OvO - are you counting cuntychops in the stats? I feel it's important that it's included.
(and yes, I would love to see a bar graph or pie chart to show the cunts as a percentage of threads. MN has got bigger over the years)

Er, I've hardly had any deletions actually. And beyond seasonal namechanges and a shortlived flirtation with two others, I've always been recognisably "me".

This is great work. If you wouldn't mind putting the cunts and cocks on a year on year bar chart but then the number of threads on a line chart with a secondary axis that should demonstrate whether it's an increase in cuntiness or just a numbers game.

Much better chart suggestion.

BellMcend - are you sure you want me to sing it? It mentions cunt a lot

Vanilla yes yes!!!

I love it when this thread pops up again

Ok, by special request. Please don't get me banned!!

You're a....
Complete cunt
A complete cunt

A complete cunt
A complete cunt
A complete cuuuuuuuuuuuuuunt
A complete cunnnnnnnnt.....

You're a complete cunt
A complete cunt
A complete cuuuuuuuuuuuuuunt
A complete cunnnnnnnnnnnt 🎶🎵🎶🎵🎵🎵🎵

Verse 1:

I'm going to ruin your life
Gonna ruin your life

Gonna ruin, ruin, ruin your life.

I'm gonna ruin your life
Gonna ruin your life
Gonna ruin, ruin, ruin your life.

Why?

Because....

You're. ....
A........

Complete cunt
You're a complete cunt
You're a complete cunt
You're a complete count
You're a complete cuuuuuuuuuunt
You're a complete cunnnnnnnnt

You're a complete count
You're a complete cunt
You're a complete cuuuuuuuunt
You're a complete cunt.

Of course, the count words should read cunt - my phone auto correct went all puritanical on me.

what tune do we sing it to?

I may need to hum it under my breath in my next work meeting when my boss starts talking.

I think the tune is part of a Lily Allen song. The one about her brother Alfie ..... along those lines, anyway.

"You're a" is. the same note
"Comp" is a note lower
"Lete" is the first note
"Cunt" is 5 notes lower than the first note

Then just go on from there and make up your own little Happy Hum!

I can't get it to fit to Alfie, but can sing it to Fuck You. Which is useful, cos if I get the two confused I'm still saying the same thing, basically.

Have I been cunted counted in the stats?
