They can accuse you of being Irish though .

It does amuse me that when YouTube videos started being demonitized for having swearing in them and loads of youtubers cut the swearing, jacksepticeye (very sweary little irish fellow) was like " I literally can't stop". It's just part of the normal flow of language. My wife's little Irish 80 year old grandad swears so regularly that any normal sentence is R-rated

yeah, it's not even angry swearing or anything (mostly) it's just words, I can't help it

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...

[GoldHeart]

unfortunately there's people that can't string a sentence together without swearing first . it can get boring if every word is F this and F that .

You miss the point some of you, its not the swearing (which incidentally I do hate) its the unnatural usage to try and make the others think they are someone they are not.

The girls using the f word sounds just awful most of time its very unladylike

people usually modify there language to their environment naturally. If this is a sweary house, its because thats what they do.
