I do take your point LT that sometimes swearing excessively may actually detract from a conversation. I've made a point to stop using "common use"/"lazier" verbiage, including dropping some swearing for emphasis. It can be a conversation destroyer and I do feel like it helps us to keep someone elses attention for longer for much bigger topics of conversation... points made using "emphatic" language tends to be overlooked during complex conversation, as we all tend to overuse to common platitudes/phrases in order to make the listen feel "listened to" and that we "agree completely", etc... kind of like a "f--- yeah" instead of actually illustrating to them exactly where we relate/connect with them on the other person's points... but there are social situations where it really doesn't matter at all and no need to give a f* about it.... or even, they can give all their f*s...
