More words
On a second note I would just like to add the fact that words in and of themselves are quite neutral and their context is what really determines their virtue. Take the universal word "fuck" for instance. The way I have used it right now i.e. as a n example, is neutral. It doesn't convey anything negative nor positive. It is still amazing to find people who would be appalled at the usage of the word in the sentence above. I would have to hear things like "well, you didn't have to use it now did you?", "couldn't you have censored it and used you know those symbols to hide what it really says?". These are all fine and dandy points and I have nothing against them but what these people fail to see is that I have not used the word in a negative context. I think it is important to teach our children and younglins about verbage. Rather than teach our children to not say these words I think it is important to teach them the value of the context; the deeper meaning if there is one to such shallow usage. That way I believe we would have cleaner mouths and a more intelligent society. It takes an idiot to start a ruckus at the hearing of a word. I am not saying that these words have no effect whatsoever. They can be used for dramatic effects and such purposes signifying intensity and anger but for someone to get upset and offended is really stupid. Just because you called me a "motherfucker" doesn't make me one does it? Only an idiot would really give value to that statement and usually the instigated party is looking for an excuse to start an altercation anyways, so this a convenient way for them to get the ball rolling and the finger pointed away from themselves simultaneously.
I do however, and quite strangely, belive such words have a therapeutic effect during anger. Just shouting aloud "fuckin hell" or "go fuck yourself" or something along those lines during anger does relieve the stress momentarily but for the sake of not heightening the tension because the other party is usually stupid I would not sanction directing such a tirade at anyone else. Then again such an effect is shortlived and it only increses the dependency on such words to relieve stress. So again an intelligent person would not use such words.
People seem to be caught up with the cool image such words seem to portray but then again people are generally stupid.
