Yes , you read that right. I like to pepper my conversation with a few choice descriptive words. People have been doing this for hundreds of years. Christ's bones used to be popular, also Christ's blood. I think the eff word has existed since time began, right out of the garden, probably first used by Adam. Another thing is using words from another country. what is swearing in the U.S. is acceptable in the U.K. and vice versa. I like to think of it as a bloody cultural exchange. When I go to Canada I make sure to throw a few buggers around. I am practically an ambassadress . I realize some are offended . Why right here in my own home there are those who don't appreciate a finely placed MOTHER...…, but tell me this what other phrase will have the same directness of meaning and expression ? Even the most obtuse will grasp exactly what I am saying. If you are of the mind that swearing is used because of a limited vocabulary I beg to differ. I have a fair amount of words at my disposal , but on occasion it takes a choice word that will impart the flavor and exact temperament of my feelings. When I say I feel like s##T today, who doesn't immediately take my meaning and steer clear. Where I come from ( southern Ohio ) (think red neck) swearing and cussing are an art form. People are admired for their ability to turn the air blue. So think about it. We could be much more expressive on form . My doctor was a real MoFo today. Short and sweet. Pam

I LIKE SWEARING and CUSSING
Sometimes a big F*$% you is needed! Or a "What a B****!" I totally agree. I cuss a lot. It is a part of my regular vocabulary. It expresses feelings and descriptions. It is no reflection on a persons intelligence at all. It is just a way to express feeling or a heavy description. I can tell you someone is being an A**hat and majority of people can say "oh yeah I have met some of those."
I would love to learn to cuss in a different language. I never even thought of that. I am off to research some new foreign cuss words!
Oh and I'm sorry your doctor was being a total MOFO today. S/he can suck it!
Oh I'm sure . lmao
Sometimes you don't always have to be a "sweetiepye" haha. Cursing is releasing and I think we need to get over the whole "it's a sin to curse" thing. I love cursing. So, you go girl! Glad you said "F*** it and posted this :))
effing brilliant
sweetiepye, I don't know how to attach a video...but in case you haven't seen it on YouTube..check out F*** that: An honest medication 🤣🤣

I have known you now for many years on various sites and I have never really seen any Anglo Saxon phrases or words from you. However I suppose I could have either been asleep or like now my memory really is now away with the Teddy Bears. So I will now go to bed it is after Midnight in the UK and hopefully I will not dream in any other language than straight English without using that aforementioned Dictionary written before 1066.
All the best Pam xx
BOB
I try to behave myself on site. I'm deep Bob. I hope you are feeling better, reasonably better.
Pam
I am hoping, you are not to deep, to deep you will get the bends, a very painful condition. One thing about myself, I fail to bend to negative expectations of others now, my health, i need to remain positive and bite my Lip. Negativity, I do not speak any Ancient contributions on here, I prefer to refer to the Oxford Dictionary.
How is your Health, Are you feeling better
Keep well, Pam, Keep a hold

I'm working on my health issues (a full time job ) inching my way forward. A quick word to Pax, woof woof.
Pax sends a lick or two. Pam
We are sitting watching the Edinburgh Military Tattoo tonight, not as good as it was when we used to go in the seventies/eighties. Personally I must be getting too old Even the performers seem to be getting older. I suppose you will get the chance to see it at Christmas.
Take care and keeping a hold is still the best way.

Fracking frack on a clock sandwich my toe hurts.

Lol😂😂😂
Love the video!
Oh, what a way to start my day. Thank you so much. It's been awhile since I've had such a good laugh. Marvelous.
🤗👍
I was watching spongebob squarepants with my niece many years ago and they didn’t call it cussing. They called them sentence enhancers. So just tell everyone you are using sentence enhancers.
I always litter my conversation with swear words and I have an IQ that will admit me to Mensa (yeah, tested that F*#*#* once!!) So low intelligence is not the reason.
As you say, sometimes the only way to describe things is to use mofo/s*#t/d*#k - whatever - as an accurate description.
I also find that swearing releases anger, and it can also help if my pain levels are flaring, to throw about some swear words.
It’s just gone 7am in the UK now, so I hope you all have a really f*#*#*#g good day today.
Take care & thanks for this post x
Whatever.!!
🤭
Good morning sausage!!!! Was thinking about you last night when having my tea. Yes it was sausages. He he . Oh well, little things for little minds !! Hope you are well and have a good bhmonday.😸
I’ve worked on a lot of building sites and there really is only one word that comes to mind when you hit your thumb with a hammer 🔨...fiddlesticks...thank you enjoy your day too another hot one here in the u.k 🙂
Yes I'm here in the UK as well and the heats not too good for the fibromyalgia but I can always ease the tension with a few choice words when it gets too much!! Enjoy !!
I love swearing too. I have a very foul mouth.
Studies have shown that people who swear have a higher physical pain tolerance and better vocabularies.
Keep on swearing!
I like to call them sentence enhancers. Nothing gets a point across more clearly.
WTF is one of my faves.
So useful in a variety of situations and quite effective coming out of the mouth of a 72 year Grandmother. I am always aware of my surroundings . For instance I don't indulge myself in church. Sometimes my mind wonders and I sit there wondering what would happen if I uttered a loud mofo. It keeps me edgy .
I love my edgy-ness. One of the terrible losses when I’m in the black hole is the loss of that trait. In fact, my friends noticed that I started to get better when my prickliness returned. I’m a Jersey Girl, and we have sarcasm, cynicism and edgy in my DNA. I wouldn’t be me, if I was any other way. I love my own sense of humor and get a kick out of myself. Glad to have a sister-in-character 😎
I feel that , but don't know many who do. Good to know I'm not alone.
Not only is it false that swearing is an indicator of low intelligence, swear words do not come from the language sector of the brain. Language from the left and swearing from the right (put simply). I am a firm believer that swearing is necessary at times.
To be sure.
Hi Ya Sweetiepye
The earliest recording of Adam introducing the F**K word was.
On entering the wilderness Adam bursts out " really F***ING good idea that was Eve" and "God I want my F***ING Rib back".
On a less serious note did you catch the news about the pharmaceutical company that recently conducted a study and concluded swearing is a n effective form of pain relief., and it homeopathic. itsTrue
I like the pay attention effect preformed by a well place profanity.
Be Mello MaxV4 xx
You know Max, since I posted about swearing I think I'm meeting a better class of people.
🤣
From 1972, but still holds up. Needless to say ... language follows, so listen at your peril:
And brother, I have said them all and enjoyed every minute of it. I miss George Carlin , he could always find the ridiculous in human behavior.
Perhaps in your group, people would not mind, but general population would rather hear an alternative word. We still get the meaning. Its not that it would offend me, but hearing it so much sours my already tough day.
In a setting where explicatives are truly not appropriate and it is truly a comfortable habit you you and your friends, it may offend the wrong person just enough where you might lose a job, lose a friend, or get a fist to the eye socket.
It also perpetuates the red neck stereotypes. If you can filter yourself by setting, no one cares. If you can't then be ready for consequences, because not everyone is tolerant. Good luck to you.
Please allow me to put your mind at rest. I have no group and I speak only for myself. Those of us on this site have some serious health issues and any time I can lighten the load with a little tongue in cheek fun I am going to do so. It lightens my load too, to hear the responses, and I believe it builds supportive relationships. If you are offended hie thee to another place. Pam
Perhaps you did not read my reply fully, as I said it does not offend me, but in certain situations you could be putting yourself at risk. Do you not have friends or colleagues or family that are your "group"? Of course, we all have serious health issues. Of course we need some fun.
So, Pam, before you criticize me, remember that we are all here to help each other grow, heal, and be comforted. I have been in the group for a long time and people who just are venting, say they are just venting. If this method of communication, with cussing and swearing works for you then, to each their own.
I have worked in customer service in a variety of settings and if someone approached me with that tone, it would make it difficult. What is the old saying about "you catch more flies with honey than vinegar"? I wish you well. I will not reply to your posts, as you do not wish them.
Well, all I can fucking say right now is that this post is fucking awesome. 😂😂
Thank you
prone to the odd naughty word myself but not in general conversation but as a way of getting out how I feel about certain situations frustration anger to name a few.said this on here before our geography teacher said bxxxxxd wasn't a swear word then my friend shout sir your a bxxxxxd and got suspended from school.
Unfair, I protest against that teacher. In all seriousness , I don't go around trying to offend people although I do enjoy shocking people on occasion. I really don't feel anger enough to swear about it.Usually in my car lol
The day I knew, I was a real adult was when one of my parents cursed in front of me. It is a right of passage and a privilege.
sorry to hear about your doctor. Just remember the guy with the lowest score in medical school is still called Doctor. Sometimes the fit just isn't right. Maybe it is time to go doctor shopping.
My Mother used to say 'Jesus H. Christ '. Does anyone know what the H stands for. Something tells me this is the group to ask.
Okay now I have to ask. What does the H. stand for?
I agree, swearing is wonderful, it's an art form. While some folks around me whose cursing is akin to a Picasso are great at it, me, not so much. It just doesn't come out right, unfortunately. For instance, let's say I was late for work and the car wouldn't start. I can't say "F'n car" as the ending is too slang and just doesn't seem right coming out of my mouth. On the other hand, "F'ing car" is more like me but that's grammatical, if you know what I mean. Once in a while, but only in jest, I throw down a c&*k su@#&r which is just one of the hard hitting words, like a hammer, and that's not too bad. In the end, I wish I were a more natural swearer.
Practice and attitude and you'll own it.
I agree! Searing is prime! It goes with colour! It's abstract and f#@king creative. It gets to the core. The world would be bland within cussing and colour. 😁
Not what you're looking for?
