Profanity
January 14, 2014 at 11:19 am
Fucking Jesus fucking Christ, I'm so sick and tired of people treating the god damn word fuck as if it has some kind of magic fucking powers. Its not as if Jesus sents a god damn kitten to hell every time you say. For fuck sakes it is just a way of adding a exclamation mark or expressing frustration. IT IS NOT MAGIC
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Honestly, what the fuck my reasoning has to do with my shitty language skills or expression?

Good golly! Was that even a sentence? Blimey with mayo and pickles on top!.

It's verbal spice, to me. Sentences have a natural rhythm to them, and sometimes that requires an extra few syllables in there, a little additional punch to the fucking mixture. And so I swear. So much that I'm sort of blind to it by now.
But then, I'm Australian; the people I interact with regularly are fairly free with the cursing themselves.

I think spice is a good analogy. Language would be bland without it, but if it's OVER used it just becomes passe.

Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken."

I use the word "fuck" all the time in every day speech. It amuses the fuck out of me that it offends some people like it's magical.
