... Er, in person/in real life/outside this forum. Ya know, like use fuck and shit as every other word.
I seriously don't know why people NEED to swear. They extend phrases and sentences unnecessarily!
Why say "Shut the fuck up!" when you can just say "Shut up!"? Afterall, they're both rude!
Anyway, I don't really find the words offensive but it's just sort of annoying when people use it a lot when they talk. The only time I ever use those sort of words is when I'm really pissed off. :/

Occasionally. I use racial slurs, for instance, in spite of the fact I have (had) friends which are of the race related to said racial slurs; I only use racial slurs when debating against drug smuggling hypocrites. I'm not exactly Adolf, KKK or blood/crip material, considering I'm quite open and may infact someday find myself in a comfortable position with others of other nationalities, blood and skin type. Not to mention I am a proud supporter of senator Barack Obama.
As far as swearing goes... eh, only when my blood's pumping. Otherwise I sit with my mouth shut like a bust or an ornament.

I don't do it at all now. I used to when I was younger though.

Amazing! You're two inches taller than I am! Heh, I bet you'd never believe me if I told you I knew a chick about a foot taller than me though. My weight fluctuates frequently, between 120 and 140.

Very occasionally, when I'm with certain friends. xD Or like MP83, when I accidentally hurt myself.  When you hit the tip of your toe in a table, that kind of thing. I keep mumbling swear words until the pain is gone. xD But basically, I avoid them as much as I can. |

Quite often, but most of the time I'm alone.

Consistantly! They add an emphasis to things which is personally pleasing, and I grew up around a lot of swearing, so it seems pretty natural to me. However, I also tend to steal profanity from other English-speaking regions, as they sound exotic and different; I think I am the only person in my county that routinely says bugger and bloody.
At the same time, I also avoid racial slurs religiously. There's simply no reason to use them, they lack the poetry of real profanity. And they were made especially to hurt people, as opposed to true profanity, which was decided to be offensive more or less arbitrarily.
Well, I kinda tell a lie, I use anti-white profanity like cracker and honkey. But that's because it never really had any power, it was mostly just a bitter powerless protest against those who were abusing.

I mostly just swear to ease my pain whenever I hurt myself somehow, like when hitting my head on a ceiling lamp, which happens quite often considering my height (197cm / 6'6'').  damn didnt realize you were so tall |

All the fuckin time!!!
I come from a very British family and we all love using curse words. Its a word, and its a part of our language. I dont see a problem with it, as long as you are "good" at swearing. Some people talk sometimes, and you just want to rip their jaws out.

I'm not a short person, and when we met in Stockholm I was amazed at how tall he is. Also, when I broke my ankle in 1996 it was the worst pain I've ever felt, and I didn't cuss, but I was sure thinking every swear word ever known. I just told everyone around me not to ask me any questions, and I just wanted to be left alone. (WORST PAIN EVER!) |

While I do not normally swear out loud, nor like it when other people do it... I love it in written form. I don't know why, but it makes the text a little more spicy.  |

Indeed, written profanity is more fun than spoken.
