I've never really considered "douche" a swear word.

OH... I didn't know what jerkoff meant before coming here either. I'm such an innocent little darling, aren't I?
I put moderately, but it is really somewhere between moderately and all the time. (I didn't put all the time because I will bite my tounge if someone requests that I not swear). More specifically, I don't swear in public, and I consider AF to be public, so I don't swear here. (Additionally, because this is not in real time, I can more easily think of substitute words for obscenities that still get my point across).
To me, words like the F word are mainly used for emphasis, and to express disappointment. You can say "darn it", but that will never properly express your disappointment as compared to advanced vulgarities. In my opinion, people are thin skinned if they are offended by swear words, unless said words are directed at them. If you say: "Today was awful" you could interject the F word for more dramatic emphasis than "very", while not insulting anyone.
I don't, however, randomly interject profanities into a sentence for no reason. I swear (no pun intended) that some of my classmates in high school had a kind of magical linguistic power. How else do you create a sentence in which three out of every four words is an obscenity while remaining grammatically comprehensible?
