What is it with the F*** WORD THAT IS GUARANTEED TO make people throw up their hands in horror, after all it is only a word, and cannot really hurt anyone or kill them, I find it very boring when they are saying it all the time in violent films, as it is an insult to the intelligence of the viewer.

It causes offence because its an inappropriate word to use. I have very rarely used it in my life, which is good considering my age group and gender. At the rate that social standards are falling though, I doubt it will be too long before this word is mainstream.

Basically, the "upper classes" (like those that live in Ecclesall ;) J/K!) start using a word like "POO". Because they're using it, it makes all the "lower classes" (like those that live in Ecclesall Road ;) J/K again!) want to use it so they sound "posher". Eventually, so many "lower class" people are saying "POO" that the "upper class" people stop using it and use something else instead, like maybe "PLOP"... and then it goes full circle.

Many swear words today didn't offend your great-great-great-grandparents as they were everyday words.

(Or so I was told... but I've got no references, sorry.)

I think it will eventually become a substitute for the word 'very'...

Interesting point, but I thought it was more a matter of bad upbringing - Sheffield lower class children swear with just as much frequency as lower class scousers

As the Vicar said: When you hit your thumb with a hammer - 'Oh Dear!' doesn't quite make it.
