"Thanks to its creator Martin Gingras, a junior at Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada, the map not only tracks the F-bombs as they happen, but also features pins that can be clicked to see a tweet and who tweeted it. On Twitter, @FBomb_co retweets random tweets that make up the map."

I'm not a Twitter person, but I did find this map mesmerizing, and funny has hell when you click on individual tweets.
Fucking enjoy!!
