Over the past three days I have sworn 1.42 times a day. And don't ask me how I came up with that math.

Wow...lots and lots of votes so far. I actually like the results!

And interesting ideas on the matter, as well.

I swear often-ish

but now to something random that shocked me so much i had to say something

Sajainta, one of your random-avatar pics was of two of my friends from delaware and shocked the hell out of me.

just so you know.

edit:  (upon doing a refresh fest... i saw the pic again but no live pics of anyone else...  kinda creeped out. )

Um....really..  ?  Because I only have three real-life pictures in my rotating avatars, and all three of them are either of me or of me and my boyfriend.  0_0

Which picture were you talking about?  Here's the entire gallery::  link.

And I've never been to Delaware so I'm probably not the friend you're talking about.

I swear a hell of a lot, I try not to but I can't help it sometimes. To be totally honest, I say 'Don't make me kick your ass' and 'Shit' at least twice a day, but over here saying those things is just part of every day life, just look at Kevin Rudd XD

In my opinion, the day isn't complete until you've threatened to kick someones ass. Try it!

Only when something terrible happens, generally. It'd have to be worse than smashing my hand with a hammer, because I'd probably just go "AUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGHOWOWOWOWOWOWOW!"

I do say "God dang it" a lot, if that counts as a swear word.

I swear on line sometimes--more often than I do in real life, anyway--but even here...not that much. I tend to just make things up on the spot. "Keaton vas vadra dasriva iiiken magura!"

"Iiken" comes out a lot when I'm surprised. I suppose it's a corruption of 'Eek!'

Anyway, that's not all that interesting. Laters.

I think I'm going to start saying "Merlin's beard!"  I also used to say "Holy Sonnet" a lot (thank you, John Donne).  I may pick that up again.

I have several conversational styles, all depend on context. It just so happens I have one that entails swearing like it's going out of style when I'm around select close friends. I would never dream of using it out of that context, as it would surely offend even the most profane people.

I am the exact same, I only swear in specific social circumstances, as a form of expression rather than offensive action against someone else.  In any other given situation, meaning in my common daily life, I just say something like "curses", instead of an actual swear word.

Swearing in my mind right now, actually. My jaw hurts like hell now.

Thank mankind for the invention of pain killers.  :franky

Pain killers for swearing?

Never heard of such a thing.

Then again, there are lots of things I haven't heard of yet and probably don't wish to hear of at all.

How often do I swear?

All the bloody fucking time, God dammit.

Actually, you'll almost never hear me swear in my day to day speech. Depending on my mood, you might not even hear me say a word.

Yea i realized it wasnt them after remembering her hair was dirty blonde and not that dark, but your bf looks exactly like my friend back in DE, I can't even see a slight difference.   I showed it to a mutual friend when I was home and he thought it was them at first too.  Just one of those crazy things i guess  :)

Haha, that's amusing!  I think my boyfriend has one of those looks or faces that looks like a lot of other people's faces.  Over break we were at a Baskin Robbins and the cashier asked him "Has anyone ever told you that you look like John Lennon?"  My boyfriend laughed and said yes.  The cashier then said "Wait, Harry Potter too, right?"  XD

I also think he looks a lot like John Oliver.  It's pretty funny that he looks like so many different people.  And I think John Lennon, Harry Potter, and John Oliver are all pretty awesome anyway, so more power to him I guess.  :D
