The Melbourne God-botherer has a post on his blog about swearing. Here’s some choice quotes
Blogging using cuss words has become a trend for some new bloggers hitting the scene, but I?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢m wondering is it really to any avail? I want to take this time on Problogger to analyze the pros and cons of putting the S-word, B-word, or any other X-word that might be whispered into your eat by that devil on your shoulder…..Your blog will have a friendlier, less hostile look. Saying a swear word creates a more hostile atmosphere to the sentence you have just said. This applies to blogging, as well. Keeping your blog friendly encourages people to enter and comment….I don?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢t particularly enjoy swearing on my blog, Blogosis. I might throw in an ?¢‚ǨÀúa$$?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢ or a ?¢‚ǨÀúI3!tch?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢ every once and a while, but I don?¢‚Ǩ‚Ñ¢t overdo it.
What, ass and bitch are swear words? What the Fuck?
Ass (or more correctly arse) is something I sit on, bitch is a female dog 🙂
The fact an entire post can written about swearing without actually swearing is a fucking miracle in itself I guess.
Surely there’s more important things to worry about in the world than this…well, probably for some involved there isn’t.
