Quoting: plus I think it's a sign of idiocracy. As people's working vocabularies shrink, bad language seems to become a bigger proportion of the words they use. You notice it crept into movies, music, then tv first? It's amazing how that works. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74809459 But as always there is an extreme to everything. Some people take it way overboard and sound like they have tourettes.

It is only foul language because that is what you have been told and brain washed to believe , why is the word fuck any different than the word love ? ..... Because you are a sheep and you think that when someone moves their mouth and makes a certain noise forming a certain word that you should become offended by this . Chill the fuck out and stop taking offence to everything , you might even try dropping the f-bomd yourself , it might actually release some of that offended to everything attitude you have . |
