I Have Something to Say

Why do some people swear so much?

I have just come back from a quick lunch in my local pub. While I was there two men came in and sat down at the table next to me. They were ordinary respectable blokes, in their 40s I would guess, chatting quietly and amiably to each other about nothing in particular. No bother to anybody - except that virtually every noun they used was prefaced with the adjective "f***ing". Why? What is the point?

I so agree you. Apparently to some people it means nothing, but they should realize that to other people it is very offensive. Plus, it doesn't make you sound exactly educated or intelligent.

@daydeeo: Precisely.
