I could never remember the title of one of my favorite Richard Thompson albums.

Every time I rediscovered or remembered the title, I’d LOL, or get pissed off, or summa each.

I went thru that for years.

Unbelievable.

Too many of these aren’t even swearwords.

Idiot?! Smeg? Prat? Jerk? Git? Crap? Twit? Bum? Bloody?! That hasn’t been a swearword probably since the 60s at the latest, and even then only the most uptightest old folks would’ve objected. Poo? Heck?! That’s a minced oath! I’m surprised they didn’t include pillock, if they went with so many non-curses.

It just goes to show the wild range of opinions recorded. 10% are at least mildly offended by a word that doesn’t exist, but sounds a bit rude, whereas at the other end of the scale, 18% of the population are not particularly bothered by the top word on that list.

People- they’re a bit odd.
