Yeah I agree with that. The only time it is a problem is when it slips out in front of my mom. thelastguy
The next time she scolds you for using a profanity ask her this:
"What is the difference between "Holy crap!" and "Holy ****!"?"
And make sure not to settle for the "because it's a bad word" response. Ask her for a logical reason to why she thinks one is more offensive than the other. Since there isn't a logical reason, she won't be able to give you a logical answer and you will have caught her off guard. I like using that on people who tell me profanity is somehow "wrong" since it shows them that profanities are just words like any other and in themselves not inherently offensive.
In mixed company I'm very well behaved. But once I'm comfortable with the people around me I can exhibit quite the foul language -- probably more than I should truth be told but I'm entering my cantankerous period and refuse to be swayed.

Oh man it seems I'm swearing more and more and more lately, nearly one in every sentence. Lately my teachers heard me swearing and I got told off and I accidently blurted the F-Master in front of my sister and my mum when I was yelling at my sister for kicking me, luckily they didn't hear me. :P
Daily. It's a habit, whether in real life or online. I don't see why people take such offense to profanity unless it's used in an extremely rude way. Just saying **** when you're upset means nothing at all. All depends on how it's used, I suppose.
I use profanity a lot, almost like it's like normal speech...not the best habit but it developed growing up in a bad environment I guess. I made the mistake of telling my Marine Bio teacher that one of of our assignments was f****** BS, needless to say she wasn't happy :P
