No. I swear like a trooper.

It's a valid form of expression.

Depends. I wouldn't say it offends me as such, but I do find it a bit off when someone swears in a post for no reason, there's always an alternative to swearing.

No, I dont and hardly anyone does which is why I dont know why people like myself are given infractions by saying words like 'Idiot' to another member when it probably doesn't offend them in the slightest.

No,not really. But it all depends on the context,if people are trying to be offensive than it is offensive but usually it's just people just swearing in a joking way or talking about general things.

Linda!!!! Did you see the Grey's finale??

Not offended, but sometimes I think it's uncalled for, like people just swear for the sake of it.

My thoughts exactly!! It was probably one of the best Grey's episodes EVER. Upset about the baby though.

I know, and when she knew she'd miscarried, and still carried on operating... so much drama. GA is always dramatic, but I think they excelled themselves with this finale. I absolutely loved it.

No. I cannot be offended by a few letters strung together to form a word which has been given a meaning by some unknown twat.
