In reply to the discussion: DU Community: Do you think the word "fuck" on DU posts/subject line [View all]bottomofthehill
(8,327 posts)12. I don't think I used it much before 1/6
But when talking about Domestic Terrorists, I use it often. 16 months later it still makes my blood boil. My father was fond of saying cursing is proof of a weak mind, he would be disappointed in many of my word choices when it comes to the Terrorists, but I dont have a better way to explain my anger.

I don't know about DU but in society as a whole the use of the word has gone up in a straight line.

I've had a friend that used "fuck" as a noun/verb/adjective and (once, I think) as an adverb.

In fairness, the word "fuck" is kinda like the Swiss Army Knife of language.....

True. The overuse of the word has diminished its once shocking veneer.
