Bring It Back ya bleep.
Let me be honest - and normally I am, but sometimes - and actually a majority of the time, I'm not. Ya dig?
I would curse like a sailor in this shin-dig I call my blog. I would shout profanities. I would make satellite radio look like your local cable channel. But I can't because I'd feel bad. If my future in laws read my lovely string of bleeps and bloops, they might disown me.
If you ever want to become educated and feel like a malicious donkey at the same time, Google a curse word and read the Wikipedia article on it, and you'll soon learn that there's no reason to give a, uh, you know a poop. It's all Germanic stuff.
Speaking of Germany - everything evil comes from Germany. The beer, the pop music, those terrible suspenders with the fedora hats. Why do you think the German people came up with all those expletives? They had to describe all the horrific things they were seeing and tasting. I mean, imagine back in the middle ages the guy down the street in Berlin is trying to sell beer made from pine bark - you would be calling it something too.
Okay, I'll admit, you can take it a little overboard. I mean we all like sprinkles on our ice cream, but not the other way around. In the show Spongebob Squarepants, they called them "sentence enhancers." So of course, they shouldn't overpower the sentence - use sparingly.
If you have an accent - especially a very thick southern accent, you should NOT use sentence enhancers. They actually tend to have the opposite effect - it's like giving Ritalin to a kid that doesn't have ADD.
If you are a man with an exceptionally deep voice, don't curse. You'll lose the trust of your employers and the women in your life. You will also sound like a 'roid ragin' animal. No one wants to be around that.
Since there are a lot of dimensions to these rules, let me demonstrate with a brief illustration:
