Every once in a while. Probably would be more if I didn't replace **** with frak. I didn't even do it on purpose, it just kinda happened while watching BSG.

I believe that people who use the f-bomb for every adjective they use and in every sentence they say have small vocabularies and are to be pitied and educated. Remember, folks, if you hear someone use the same few curse words over and over, buy them a dictionary.

The "f-bomb" is a verb and using it often does not show any signs of possessing a small vocabulary.
Unfortunately it's been "all the time" lately and I need to work on cooling it a bit.

It's an extreme rarity for me to curse on the internet though, the community I'm a manager for doesn't like it. So I've learned to refraim from it on the web.
In real life though, as I said, I tend to sprinkle them throughout my words. Usually when I'm ranting or bullshitting (see, first time in 200some posts) I do. Just cursed IRL too, talking about what just howled. And twice moar. It's a gift and a curse.

The "f-bomb" is a verb and using it often does not show any signs of possessing a small vocabulary.
It can function, for the proficient curser, as an adjective (f-ing), a verb (f-), an interjection (f-), a noun (f- or f-something, such as f-ton); in a pinch, it can replace every other part of speech as well. It is said it's the only word that has enough meanings to form a grammatically correct sentence by itself.
And using it often DOES show signs of a small vocabulary. The fact that they only express themselves with a few choice curse words means they don't know any other words to use; even if they know a word and it's meaning, the fact that they don't use it shows that they don't understand the full use of the word. So yes, using a small vocabulary of words means you have a small vocabulary of words.
You're not by any chance someone who uses curse words to express yourself constantly, are you?

Never. Why should I? There are much more intelligent ways of expressing oneself.

Swearing is pretty common around here, can't say I've seen a day where I haven't heard someone say '****'. Even the 'c word' is pretty common nowadays too, no one really seems to mind, it's become pretty acceptable, even during everyday conversation. Although there is the exception for parents/teachers/some females, although females probably wouldn't swear near as much as males. But that's just called being respectful anyway.
I live in Australia, where swears are less words than a intricate language in itself. They're used so colourfully and often that to make any sense of a sentance you would have to grow up listening to it. For instance, "*******" can mean many things in Australia. It could be a genuine insult, an expression of admiration, a noun, and much more. The actual meaning of the word can be safely ignored in everyday use.
That said, swears just find their way into my sentances somehow. It's gotten to the point where I don't consciously swear, it just slips off my tongue, largely going unnoticed except when in the presence of a prude.

I'm a little tempted to sig everyone in this thread.
I'm a little tempted to sig this.
I was actually legit going to sig that, but now that you've said it, it won't be as clever and original anymore, so never mind.
(Btw, I hate that they are called "curse/cuss" words)
How often do you "curse"? I do. Alot. It's prolly' because I grow up where it's used a **** ton. I have no problem with it, my teachers dont, my parents dont. It's pretty acceptable to say "****" "****" "crap" "*****" "****", etc, etc, around here. How about you?

Mutha ****in cursers should go duh hell y'all.
Anyway, I do cuss a lot. Not on this forum though. I do cuss here moderately.
This, more or less.
It comes with being Australian.
