Yes, I'm aware I can curse on the internet - it's not my first day here. I use the exact words I mean to use, and I'm more a fan of the precision F-strike than indiscriminately carpet-bombing the place with "fucks". Stop word-policing me (and others).
Edited to add alt text.
Yeah, this went over about as well as expected. And the irony and hypocrisy of the free speech absolutists coming out of the woodwork to tell us all what we can and can't say is not lost on me.
You can speak in goo-goo ga-ga talk but I’ll interpret that active choice of lingo as coming from the mind of an infant
My young one has explicit instructions that the main reason he is only permitted the childlike imitation curse words is that he is still learning how to express himself. Cursing, as an intensifier and in its capacity as general purpose verbiage, is an expressive crutch. You don't learn by doing things the easy way every time.
It is my (perhaps unsupported) conviction that one's thoughts are the words that compromise them, and if your lexicon is impoverished by neglect the quality of your thoughts will suffer. If you have spent any significant time around young people, whose expression of choice in nearly any occasion is "bruh", perhaps it will be equally obvious to you that these people are not learning to express themselves, and that diminishing of expression is decreasing, by turns, the general scope of human experience.
Language is a fine art, and all art is the study of choice. What words we choose in the course of our lives are as much an expression of our deepest selves as they are an attempt to reach out beyond oneself, to create meaning and thereby banish, even if only symbolically, the nameless emptiness that seems to pervade life. When we are with someone who cannot reach us in that way, we are lonelier for it.
All the foregoing is merely preamble to the question, in preemption of the shortcomings of brevity; are you sure you're not being just a bit of a cunt?
