Mr_No_Swearing OP ,

Maybe? I find more joy in a clever remark then a person saying the same 7 or so words in a - what seems to be random - order.

Mr_No_Swearing OP , (edited )

I disagree with “polite” words having no emotion. Tell me you don’t get anything from this sentence “Go to hell, you subhuman pest.”

I think the tone & emphasis matters more than selecting some curse word. When I wrote the sentence, I was thinking the “subhuman pest” part was biting since it would be said in a sharp snapping tone & conveys more info than a swear word.

Mr_No_Swearing OP ,

In what way does it add emotion? I’ve heard people say “f you” to mean all different kinds of emotions. I find it hard to believe that saying “I’m f-ing sad” is more emotional than taking time to think it though and get something such as this “I think losing a family member would hurt less than what I’m feeling right now.”

Mr_No_Swearing OP ,

You’ve my sencerest condolences.

That sounds as if a punch-line that an alien trying to learn how to be human would have in a comedy.

Mr_No_Swearing OP , (edited )

Maybe I miswrote it. I mean that choosing from a wheel the 1 out of 7 words to use, isn’t as clever as thinking of an insult that stings. I agree that cursing doesn’t take away, it just isn’t needed.

Mr_No_Swearing OP ,

Yea, because it’s easy; just as saying f you is a brainless task, lacking any depth.

Mr_No_Swearing OP ,

Depends on the situation.

Mr_No_Swearing OP , (edited )

I think there’re better words to use. “Appropriate” makes it sound as if I’m a nanny or something; I don’t care about appropriate, I care about if the phrase made an impact. There’s not much impact in swearing other than (maybe) showing anger.

Mr_No_Swearing OP , (edited )

I get what you mean, however that last paragraph seems to be mistaking something.

I was showing how saying “fat-f**k” is shallow than the more biting “don’t get up, I know you haven’t done it in years.” It’s meant as a comparison.

I’m just a tiny-bit tired so maybe I need to rephrase it again, but I hope I made my point.

Mr_No_Swearing OP , (edited )

Then, to curse is to show that you’re a wimp.

Anti-cursing for the win, baby.

I guess don’t know how to break it to you that saying “f you” is not creative without being on a high horse then.

Also, speaking of cope. To say that a person using curse words instead of a witty remark is somehow smart cause smart people use curse words doesn’t sound right but I don’t how else to interpret the ETA you made.

Mr_No_Swearing OP ,

And this is called not understanding a joke.

Guess it needed the /s then?

Mr_No_Swearing OP ,

Ok, I understand what you’re saying, saying “f you” is faster & easier.

2 points I want to make:

  1. I getting this sense that instead of speaking to someone, it’s to let off steam. As you put it, “it’s cathartic to say.” I find that telling of a weak character to need to blow off steam because of a conversation they’re having.
  2. Since curing usally indicates aggression, I can’t help but think if you are short on time then making people feel aggression is not the smart thing to-do.
Mr_No_Swearing OP ,

For the 1st point, all I read is that smart people curse, & I’m on a high-horse for pointing out cursing isn’t that creative.

You don’t seem to refute that cursing isn’t super creative, so I fail to see the counter argument here.

And if you going to say that I’m condescending for what was stated, then guilty as charge, I guess.

For the sencond point, read again what you wrote me. I see “smart people are more likely to use curse words.”

That doesn’t state when nor to what degree do they curse.

Also my point is that there’s better words to use then swear words, I fail to see how it’s suppose to matter that smart people use swear words.

Again I ask, does it make the swear word more intellient because someone smart says it as oppose to a witty remark?

The best speakers tend to not use them if we’re going to bring who says what in this.

3rd point, clichés exist for a reason. I hope that after you let out the steam (probably by cursing), you can see how - even in your rage - you thought of insults instead of cursing. Would hate to think it would show you as lacking brain power than the smart people cursing away somewhere.

Mr_No_Swearing OP ,

Would it help make it more sarcastic if I added some f**ks in the sentences, sensei.
