How Profane Are You?

The problem I find with answering is this is that profanity has different definitions to different groups. For example, my parents consider "hell" and "damn" as curse words to use sparingly and only in serious situations. Freshman year in high school, I was astounded at how many teachers had no problem with using profanity; there was even a priest/monk who probably have the worst swearing problem I've ever seen; meanwhile I saw a student get a detention from another teacher for saying "bitch".

Over the years here in I've seen profanity become a lot less shocking. I remember watching The Shield on FX and not even realizing characters were saying "shit" freely until the show ended. Let's not forget that one SouthPark episode. Supposedly now it's okay to say "fuck" on network TV so much as it's not referring to fornication. (Admittedly I've never heard it said on network TV.) When I was very young, just saying "damn" would pretty much get me slapped, but nowadays my parents wouldn't even flinch if I said it.

So I can't answer the question with a definite answer. All I can say is that I use every word up until "fuck" fairly often, but it depends on the circumstances. It's hard to be less vague without being boringly specific.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
