[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020
Mostly because I find Americans in general don't appreciate swearing as much as people this side of the pond. Am I just being crazy?
Have to join the chorus, 'cause my first reflexive response was "Fuck, yeah you are!"
Um. Ya shitbag.

Heh. Excellent. I know I'm being a big generalising racist about it, really. But I really don't hear people swear much when I'm in the States. Maybe they're just trying to be polite around the foreigner.

Swear words in cute foreign accents are better appreciated than the local voices. It's hard to take "fuck" seriously when it sounds like it should be on PBS

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
should I be worried that the medical testing center is next to a pet cemetery? Also, very angry @ my doc for not filling out the test order form properly, and also not faxing a fixed copy TWO DAYS AGO when I brought it to their attention. Grrrrr.

Compassionately intolerant
My father swore vehemently but I never did in front of him. In his mind, flashing the peace sign was tantamount to swearing and the one time I did that in front of him, he very nearly broke my fingers. So yeah. Reserved the swearing for much later in life...went a little overboard with the pendulum swing into sailor-mouth and am now comfortably conscious of my swearing. I was so glad when frak came into vogue.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Totally. Plus "arse" is such a cute word. Even better when it's used as a verb....

Jars, the only thing I found kind of whoa when hearing Brits talk was the number of times the word cunt was used in conversation. That's, at least in the circles in which I travel, a word that's used veeeeeeery rarely and always as a serious insult. I swear constantly in general, probably more than I should, and call my friends all sorts of horrible things in an affectionate way--jackass, jerk, bitch, ass, etc.--but would never in a million years bust out the c-word unless I meant to be as insulting as possible.
ETA: Whoa. X-post-o-rama! That's fucking awesome.
