Tw*t, I assume. Is that clearer?

And I would swear more frequently, but I think that you guys would just make me feel really awkward and bad about it, so I don't. Wink

'Bugger' isn't really swearing. Here in Australia Toyota ran a whole series of TV advertisments with that being the only word in the whole ad - and not at midnight or anything.

Buggery, however (and Gautam would agree) is a whole different thing....

Out of a total (current) number of posts of 837,349, this is an average of 1 swear word every 98 posts.
So my dear fly-speck picker. One point of view might be: Praise the Lord! What restraint! These are really civilized geeks. Another might be: Yikes! Better not let Little Deb Law see this! She'll Sue us for certain.
While we await your solemn judgement, I'll be practising chanting "Heaven's Sakes The Cakes is Bakin'!

Now, my contribution (and that is a loose term) would be somewhat shorter if all the good words were banned. And they do already. I started to insert a @ instead of a 'u' to overcome that little problem.

I find it interesting that the 'c' word (not Craven, tho) appears. As we are being monitored it couldn't be in an offensive way - did someone mention it in a feminist thread?

I also use the word 'bastard' a lot too. It is not such a big deal in Australia - I may even introduce an acquiantance as an 'alright bastard' with no offence given or taken.

I would like to see that c word rehabilitated.

It is a good, solid, Anglo-Saxon descriptor - and has only been ruined by the sexist cr@p which makes a word for a woman's genitalia into the worst thing you can call anyone in the west.

I use it happily in ...er...close relationships - and have no qualm with it.

It is only the way it has been debased which makes it sound so ugly to our ears, I think. Any word can be made ugly if spoken with hate and mindlessness.
