Nah, not really. It made me realize that swear words are just words. They're not inherently wicked or bad, they're just words we've been conditioned to view negatively.

It alienates me from civil company but I think also makes me more free mentally. But then sometimes when I hear myself talk I sound really stupid.
It's obnoxious when people swear at people who can't swear back, like people in customer service. It would be better if we could get rid of the concept of swearing, though. People can be even more obnoxious without swearing but in a way that they know they won't suffer any consequences for.

Made me love swearing. It feels good to let it out. I do work in an open kitchen at the moment, so I have definitely offended some guests.

It's wonderful to be able to insult someone brutally without using swear words.
That's not a matter of class and civility so much as practice, intelligence, and imagination.

I used to do it a lot as a kid... even more than I do now.
