lol ddb    its not the word  its the tone that counts .

Yes!  and the intent behind the word.

A poster on here told me the other day that she is a far better person as she doesn't swear - the day after that i saw her drop the f bomb on facebook - i just laughed.  :^O

So many use some of the really bad words in their everyday language and their tone is not rude or abusive. Its just the way they talk, unable to string a sentence together without swearing.

Are they bogans?

Am i being a bogan by using the word bogan on them?

nah...."bogan" is not considered as a profane term.   The other one is.

I can safely say I don't swear or blaspheme....... I never have and can't see a reason to.

I am not so precious that I object to anyone else doing it... unless they are saying it TO me..... or in the hearing of children or older people they know don't like it.

Intent, tone and circumstances are all involved.

It's wrong to swear I'm going to pray for the CS swearers
