| 11-15. :33 |

| online: constantly irl: worst i say is 'shit' |
| Used to be in the 200 range, now it's limited to 51-100. Replace stuff with shit, use fuck as an adjective or interjection; thats about the limits of my cursing. I do use racial slurs when the time yearns for it, though. |

| Amongst my peers, I'm always cursing, they are just so much a part of my normal vocabulary. I attach fucking to many verbs, and I use shit to replace most nouns. If you understand the context to which a person uses curse words then you can realize that most of the time there is no added significance with the use of said curse words. Around my family and little children I hardly ever use curse words. I always stay away from racial slurs because I never intend to demean anyone face to face and behind closed doors. Only strife can come from those words. |

| I don't use racial/gay-bashing slurs at all. I do use profanity on a regular basis, a bad habit picked up in high school. |
| I've actually never sworn before. And I'm not religious nor are my parents strict, I just never saw the need to. Most of my friends swear constantly and I don't really mind, I just think it's an impolite thing to do, particularly around people you don't know. |
     |
| not that much, but if someone really annoys me than i have to i think~~ |
     |
| idk it really varies not that much usually but really i couldn't care less |
 |
| I rarely do... its so pointless :P |
| OVER 90000000!!!! I swear in school all the time atleast once per sentence and also i swear at home or the fucking internet. |
 |
| Heh, my mom doesn't even care if I say fuck anymore in front of her. The only words I can't say in front of her are cunt and hooker. Not so sure why I can't say hooker, but whatever. |
| I'm back. |
| I swear out of habit, especially when I'm angry. I should try to get out of it, as it doesn't really give off an impression of intelligence. |

Too everybody saying swearing is for uneducated people or people who can't express themselves in other ways; George Carlin You got a point there, there are probably a handful of people in the world who have even a fraction of the command over the English language that Carlin had. He will be missed. Words like fuck and shit usually make people come off as looking dumb, but as for 'intelligent' curse words (heh, forgive me), I would say damn and bastard might be some of them. I mean they are quasi-bad words anyway. Both have more than one meaning. You know what's sad? I just realized my User name has a cuss word in it. I never really thought of bastard as being a bad word. XD |
| I'm back. |
| it really has already became a habit for me, sometimes i say them without knowing uuntil its already too late haha :D |
| lol |
| Hmmm.. i suppose not too many. I mostly swear in my head and not directly to someone else. Unless they really piss me off. |
 -Love is but a binding without the shackles- |
| agree with ripped2bleed most of the times i can control myself, fortunately :P |
 |
| I hate swearing and it really bothers me!!! |
| The amount of profanity I use really depends on what I'm doing. If I'm around family or at work I don't swear much. When I'm with friends, or alone playing a game, I generally swear a fair deal out of frustration. |

| I'm trying to reduce the amount of swearing I use, it kind of detracts from the impact of the words. I don't use the word c**t though, for reasons I'm not bothered to explain. |
| Your search on "Oran Solus" returned the following quotes: "Oran Solus? I know him. What a wanker. He still owes me a tenner." Oscar Wilde "Oran, you're so intelligent and awesome <3" Bakayaro "Oran's sexy." LolitaDecay "Oran is a sophisticated penguin." Drybananna "Oran is a Hand-Eye you faggots." EddieSpaghetti "Oran for Prime Minister." the_prime_one "Oran is all that is stated in his sig and more." orbitzz |
| I will occasionally, but I try not to xD Lol, I like using retarded words in place of the profane word, but I usually forget >.> |
 |
| I don't really swear a lot, I usually only do it when I get angry or surprised. I can barely imagine swearing 251+ times a day; I don't think I even swear that much in a year! XD |
| Give me yuri and I'm good to go. |
| None, and proud!:D |
| I don't usually, but every now and then one word will slip out. |
     |
| I'm not so much offended by those terms as I am by their sometimes usuage. For instance, I don't like it when people use the word pussy to mean weak. I'm not sure what all cunt entails in meaning, so I won't answer that one. Wanker I just lover for some reason. Nigger is a word I would have never been okay with as a little kid, and probably have some reservations about now, however, I hear it in my head all the time due to the internet. Hell is a great word and I don't understand why it's considered profanity. Shit, piss and damn, also not considered profanity as far as I'm concernded. Fuck, with it's various usuage, I don't like how you can say "fucking a person" and then "you're fucked", it makes it sound as if penetration is a bad thing. Same with cocksucker, what's wrong with sucking cock? Also, what's wrong with fucking mothers? Anyway, I generally only say the ones and usages I'm not offended by. |

| I try to avoid using profanity, and don't in public places (sometimes I'll let something light slip like dammit, or what the hell, or something). But out loud on a daily basis it comes around anywhere from 1-10 times. If the day gets frustrating it can go waaayyy up. |
| i curse alot. i like too. too most it is bad words. but they are just words and nothing is bad about them. i curse when ever and where ever i want. cursing is fun. the only time i wont curse is infront of my grandma. i curse infront of lil kids. cuz they arent suppose to know what that words mean. so if they do someone close to them use it alot and they figured it out. :D |
| I always seem to say the word nigga. |
 |
| Almost never swear at home, my parents still think I'm a good kid. At school I would lose count how many times I swore in front of friends, heck even in front of teachers where my mouth just slip without noticing them. Except it's high school, and apparently teachers have a low tolerance for it. |
| I've counted once those my classmates use, just for the lolz, and it was like 252 during the day, just in normal conversations. Boorish retards. I mean, I got kind of used to it, they like me cause they think I'm smart and I'm okay with that. |
| I do it when I want to emphasise a point. |
 |
| Profanity has pretty much become a normal part of my speech. I use the words regularly not even thinking of them as bad. I voted 51-100, but I'd say it's more like 75-125. |

| You might not believe this, but I haven't sworn once in my life. I only say stuff like "crap", "damn", and "dammit". |
 |
| Usually i don't sworn while i talk but is not because of morals or anything. I just don't need do. The funny thing is that i say those words some times. Not when i am angry but in conversations like " I saw a hentai yesterday and it was a girl that had ten tentacles in her pussy and ass" or "last night i saw a comedy and there was a stupid guy that went in to a bar with black people and call them niggers. They beat the crap out of him.That was fucking funny.What an asshole?" But you wan 't catch me getting upset and start yelling like " you stupid motherfucker" and staff. Or speaking like "can you get me a fucking burger when you go out". I don't speak like that. |
| I usually never cuss out of anger, it's just a habit, but when I start cussing a lot is if I'm talking about sex or something. I just can't bring myself to say stuff like "Yeah, shes hot I want to have sex with her.", it always comes out "Damn! Fine ass! I wanna her!" Also; and I the only one who gets really annoyed when in Fansubs/scanlations when the translator spells "dammit" as "damnit"? God damn that pisses me off. |
| I'm back. |
| I curse alot especially when am mad |
| well, as long u dont curse when u are not mad, Im okay. Cursing in every sentence sounds just wrong. I dont curse. Very rarely. Dont think cursing will help me or any1 else. Maybe "Oh, God" (im not religious XD) or "teme" (ppl wont understand what Im saying) to myself, when losing a match in S4League xD |
| A goot question... I think I use profanity about 26-50 times a day. |
| Maybe about 26-50 times a day. I have recently picked the habit of adding the "F" word in the middle of every sentence (when I am with my friends) ... I really need to stop that |
 |
| Only when i'm extremely pissed off, at something or someone in particular. |
