(I tend to use swearwords from Farscape more often than not, though I still use smeghead from Red Dwarf as well.)
At the risk of being a sad, embittered old pedant.
I'm not a fan of swearing simply because it fills a gap as in a tmesis "abso-f*ckin-lutely" or where it becomes the only language some people can ever use. "That was f*cking hot!" "He's a F*cking tit etc" When it is used well it is effective and sometimes very funny and quite appropriate. I don't take offence at the words, I am more likely to take offence at the goon who can't use anything other than swear words in their vocabulary, than the words themselves.
However T-shirt like this do get on my teetahs. Why? Because it is basically saying "I will do what I want and f*ck you and your opinions, in fact I will mock your puritannical, naive ways, because lets face it your kids know "fuck" anyway, so I am going to shove it right in your face regardless."
I do like funny t-shirts, just ones like this get on my tits. You can be amusing without being rude and trying to irritate and upset folk, especially those with kids who may not want this shoved in their face. I always think if you have to resort to this to get noticed and a laugh, then you must be a pretty dull individual in the first place.
It's not the language that gets on my wick, just the rudeness. I'm a sensitive soul you see. It's why I can't watch a lot of TV programmes like Dragons Den because it is just an excuse in rudeness. Amusing to some, but I fail to see when humiliating a member of the public, however misguided, should become a sought after national past time. If they had any talent, they'd be able to tell people and their crap inventions how to improve them, rather than ridicule them in such an obviously, and poorly, scripted manner.
I'll go away and take my happy pills now.
:lol:
