Watching your language

[journo25]

What word(s) do you find yourself blurting out that you probably shouldn't... in public, among colleagues at work, etc.?
I say "asshole" a lot, usually not too shocking, but there have been a few prudish workmates who give me a look.
"Fuck!" often passes my lips. Usually under my breath if I am somewhere public.
Also I love the words "cunt" and "twat!" So descriptive! I was at the wheel carpooling with a few passengers when I screamed "You fucking cunt!" to a stupid woman who cut me off in traffic. One of my passengers was a lesbian who I barely knew... and she laughed. Another straight male acquaintance smiled. Third passenger, a straight woman, made other carpooling arrangements!

Just the word 'fuck', occasionally, but since I often pronounce the 'u' as in 'university' (I blame watching Scottish movies for this), no one notices it.

How interesting! Have never heard it pronounced "fook" or "fuke" and, having grown up in Canada, I have a number of Scottish friends.

I have an awful habit of repeating people in an annoying voice. Because like to do it to my friends to mess with them so much it occasionally carries over. I did it subconsciously to the office girl once, but ive gotten control of it since then.

 

[rareboy]

Fuck.

And all the variations thereof.

And the Irish pronounce it feck

 

[journo25]

Fuck, cunt/cunthole, motherfucker, twat, arsehole and shit.

Though i don't really swear much in rl.

What a relief to hear that, Seth! Some of my favorites are here. LOL!!!

 

[eastofeden]

I adore "fuck" and all the variations.....

 

[blackbeltninja]

"Cunt" and blasphemy are reserved for when I am properly pissed off and I need to let it be known. The others pop out all over the show, including some from other languages.

You are quite correct , we Scots Do not pronounce Fuck as Fook or Fuke .

'Cunt' is pretty taboo in my neck of the woods, like the n' word

Exactly---I have a few close friends who I can say "cunt" around---but I know Brits here who use it all the time.

It's getting more offensive with time here. You can't say it around women period.

I try to avoid foul language except during sex. When I get angry, I yell "applesauce" or "John Brown" rather than a curse word. I do slip up sometimes, but I make an effort to keep my language in check.

 

[backagain]

"Mother fuck."

It happens when I am frustrated.

 

[ravenstar]

Fuck tends to pop out randomly without any thought. I've also been known to drop cunt into a sentence without thinking about it.

 

[Agent Provocateur]

I have a mouth like a fucking gutter. If you can think of a commonly-used English swear, I use it daily.

 

[dereperez]

"Fuck" or "fuck me" have been known to slip out of my mouth.

Other than that, I don't fucking swear.

Hey there RP we know...................

 

[SaskGuy]

I swear a LOT, but I still don't find it hard to censor myself when speaking to certain people. It's like my mind does it subconsiously. When i'm with friends, it's fuck this and fuck that, but not in professional environments.
