I like the f-word because of its versatility. Noun, verb, or adjective (with an ing) |  | | |

Similarly, no cockwipe. Although it is vaguely homophobic. But very suitable directed at someone with cleaning OCD. |  |

About 15-20 years ago a friend pulled me aside to tell me I was using the word caaant way to often and advised me to try and cut down on its use.
He was quite polite about it til he ended the conversation by saying ' it sounds loads worse with your pikey accent'.  | | | |

On this subject, when did you start to introduce swear words in front of your parents?
I can recall testing the water with a 'bloody' when I was a teenager. I got the full Ronnie Corbett in 'Sorry' treatment. |  |

Do love a well placed swear word. Couple of new ones for me in there though, "Father**cker" as other have said, but also Pimhole... What the heck is a Pimhole? | | | |
