I tend to use the F word when I'm really pissed off, though I use the other words as well... to a point.

I never used to (ie before sophomore year in college), but I realized how much more effective it can make some (read: very situational) informal dialogue. I'm also an aspiring comedian, so it sort of comes with the territory when you want to yank a laugh out of the audience. On the whole, however, I try to keep it to a minimum out of taste (and respect for my crowd, which generally comprises professionals, parents, and children these days).
As if it was prayers for a global religion, and I was the only member having to sustain the workload. To express anger, though, I use a full barrage of literary techniques, mostly without such vulgarities. It keeps people on their feet, you see. My Grandpa used to tell me that people who cursed were too stupid to think of a more intelligent word, and I applied that to anger and confusion.
Yes, yes I do.
In general, though, not as a way to place emphasis on a point...I have a plethora of somewhat wittier and verbally dextrose literary excesses to use for that end. When I'm trying to tell a story, though, I tend to find the F-word slipping in where most people use 'um.'
"So yeah, fucking, I was talking to my friend, and fucking, he, fucking..."
It wins me many friends and admirers.

Only around children and other people who get uncomfortable because of it. Otherwise, I use normal words to express any sort of disdain.
Like a sailor. But only under my breath.
I am, however, fond of saying "Son of a-" and letting any passerby fill in the blank with whatever word they choose.

The correct word, however, is *****.

God damnit man, you fucking don't swear!? Fucking wrong man, fucking wrong!

In other words, yes. Excuse my *Hems* ..language.

Depends on the situation, scene, place, time, etc.. for example; A Bad Religion concert, FUCK yeah but at the cinema with my girlfriend, god no
For the record it is swearing but it's to the point of crap or damn and has become a minor swear where no one cares. It originated as the saying 'God's Blood' which back in the day was a terrible thing to say.interspark said:
ANYWAYS (now that I'm done being a geek)
I swear sometimes, usually when I'm angry or excited. But only when I'm around friends or friendly people.
I only swear when;
1) I'm quoting something.
2) I really think something needs the emphasis to come across right.
3) I'm just on this side of punching someone.
So, only occasionally. I usually make do with milder variations (Dang, crud, etc.)
