Severity of swear words

Heh. Except on TV people use bastard and prick all the time, and shit is censored. lol.

WHAT THE ****? More people say the N word is not swearing than say Wanker is not swearing?

Jesus ****ing Christ man.
 
they actually list "balls"...awesome.
 
as much as i approve this thread, i'd like to see the author of that study dead. THEY ARE JUST ****ING WORDS, YOU COCK EATING DIPSHIT.
wasting money on a study that's purely eye candy and has no practical meaning.

"oh look i called you a dickhead, but hey at least i didn't call you a **** which would be much worse"


edit: and why the **** is **** censored and dickhead not?!?!?
 
That's super funny - **** is absolutely at the top of the list. It's the one word that we never spoke to a woman here without risking a boxing match, but wanker? Maybe in England, but here (California), it's just funny, something you might hear in elementary school. I didn't even know spastic and bloody were considered swearing, and I've never even heard the word Paki or Slag.

True story: I never used profanity until I was a senior in high school (18 years old). Now I cuss like a sailor.
 
'Jew' is on the list. lawl
And sodding and bugger are swear words?
 
You all are bloody slags. Ye' wankers.

I felt so British as I typed that.
 
Page 56 lol. How the hell for example did the c*** get above n*****. And how did piss of get above d***head
 
i love how you can say "nigg3r" on television but you can't say "god" before damn. makes perfect sense.

what television are we talking about? In movies or TV? If they say nigg on TV, from what I've seen, it's a historical depiction.

In movies they say what they want, and they get a rating accordingly.

Not over here. People say "god" all the time but I have never heard anyone say the n word before 9.
 
Ah yeah. :>

Great show.


In the US, they can (by law) say whatever they want on paid television programing, but they usually don't spout off things like that or they would normally put off their viewers. Dave's show was an exception.
 
What about HBO and Showtime? I've seen shows on both of those where they use c*nt. Weeds (on Showtime) is also the only American show where I've seen genitalia (both male and female), on HBO I've only seen tits so far. Are both of those channels above regulations because they're on cable?

Rome had quite a lot of swearing and nudity as I recall.

They're allowed to do that even more so than cable. HBO/Showtime are premium channels, so they're allowed to do whatever the **** they want.
 
^Precisely. I've got basic cable package and you don't hear any of the upper-ranking stuff on that list.
 
Niggerfaggot.

I like the idea of ranking words based on how offensive they are. It's so ridiculous it's funny.
 
How do I open the link in .html format like the option your given if you find it on a search engine?

Online .pdf files are slow as shit on 56k.

"Fuckcunt" sounds like something a wine critic would say about a wine.

Tres fuckcunt, with a strong body and an insistent aftertaste.
 
Curses! My family name is Prikk, guess I'll never be able to work in an English speaking country.

You're...shitting me right? :O

THAT IS AN AWESOME SURNAME, that's on par with BACON for awesome surnames! :D
 
"Don't be such a dick, Prikk!"

:LOL:

I'll let myself out.
