-
i say the f word allot cause of my attitude.
-
I use them mostly for shock value and my limited vocabulary when I am really pissed off.
-
I do have quite the mouth. I try to keep it to a minimum, but it just kind of slips out naturally.
-
Yeah - because often they are so very descriptive of how I feel at the time!
-
No,I do not. I think it makes one seem...less creative b/c they could not find a better word to say in its place. Which is not always the case. It is usually what they've always been around or just plain Habit. I always try to be creative in the replacement of the curse word. gets fun! and if I am mad it usually adds humor and gets me laughing at myself.

I curse all the *$*$ing time. Sometimes I do it for the #$(@*$! shock value, but most of the time it is just how the *$@! I feel. Occasionally, even I am shocked at the *#!$ that comes out of my mouth. I try not to do it around kids though.
-
I do alot. I've been doing it for so long I don't realize I'm saying them. My husband is always getting on me about it.
-
No. I don't need curse words or crass wording to get my point across. I have enough of a vocabulary to do it without those words.
-
I try really hard not to. There are too many good words in the English language, and I believe that a person who speaks well is perceived well.
-
No, My position at work requires me to 'maintain a professional attitude'. What I do requires me to talk well with people. At home I have no reason to curse. I am not saying that I never swear, but I have to be very angry to do that. For me I don't like to see people walking around cursing like sailors for no apparent reason.It doesn't sound good hearing f--k this, f--k you,f--k off all the time.

i use them in alomost evey sentence because they are useful and they fit better than dangit or a-hole instead of damn or asshole
-
I do because that's how everyone talked in my family. Like Eddie Murphy, I spent the first 12 years of my life thinking my name was "Goddamnit!"
-
yes, when i hurt myself
-
More than most people. Personally I do it just for the hell of it.
-
Yes. It's a trait I inherited from my mother.
-
I have in the past, but work at not talking like that. If I get around people that do, sometimes i talk that way also. One thing my son told me when he moved to hollywood, was how bad the language was. I went to visit and it was terrible hearing police cursing in a casual conversation on the street. that cured me when I heard how it really sounded.
