Seriosly There is so many words in the world why do people have to cuss? Do you think your cool,tough,brave, or does it make you popular? What's the whole point?

I don't use insults, cuss words or anything like that. You can just as easily insult someone without them, you illiterate monkeys! See?

Err... don't kill me?

If you swear a lot that means you lack vocabulary or a word to replace it with.


Not necessarily. I cuss occasionally and it's not because I don't know another word to use, I usually do use other words, but I want to add effect to what I'm saying.

Well, **** ******* **** ****! **** *** ****** ****! Just kidding. . . .

The lack of vocabulary thing is absurd. It's kind of a pedantic thing to say, goddammit. 'Oh, I don't neeed to use cuss words because of my burgeoning vocabulary!' It's snobbery.

People think it makes them fit in with the "cool" people. People who swear are though of as "cool".

Plus, I've sworn a few times and it makes you doesn't feel as bad when you screw up or something.

It's something else to swear just for the fun of it though.

That's a rather accurate definition.

Another accurate definition is the first one does not fit for some groups.

I do not understand why repeatedly saying the word f*** is cool.

Let us also remember that I once read about a person who exhibited a symptom of Tourette's Syndrome in a medical book. It said that he could not stop uttering the word f*** because of that. It may seem funny to some, but imagine if you were always saying that word.
