    Default Language

    I often read, or try to, and sometimes post, however I very put of by the foul language that is allowed to be used on this forum. To me it unnecessary and sometimes abusive.

    Sorry, I couldn't resist. I really don't see what the problem is with swearing. It's just a way of expressing yourself as you would with any other words in the language.

    Thanks to CzarJunkie

    I am offended by spelling mistakes and bad grammar. In addition, no one on here gives a fuck what I think so I don't give a fuck about what you think.

    Oh, welcome

    Can you cunts pipe the fuck down? This guy is making a perfectly valid point. Sadly it went straight over my fucking head as I always feel the need to swear as I am so unimaginative with my spiel.

    I bet you were fucking surprised when you had to get all the way to ten posts to open up the forum properly. Your use of English suggests it's not your first language, care to enlighten?

    When my lad was doing an advanced english course at school - 11 years old at the time. His tutor informed us that there was no such thing as foul or bad language, only inappropriate language.

    In this place it is wholly fucking appropriate judging by the amount of bollocks that spew from the shit-for-brains keyboards.

    I must be constantly in fucking agony!

    Cunting link: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/health/8147170.stm

    Swearing 'helps to reduce pain'
    TV chef Gordon Ramsay is notorious for his swearing
    Uttering expletives when you hurt yourself is a sensible policy, according to scientists who have shown swearing can help reduce pain.
    A study by Keele University researchers found volunteers who cursed at will could endure pain nearly 50% longer than civil-tongued peers.
    They believe swearing helps us downplay being hurt in favour of a more pain-tolerant machismo.
    The work by Dr Richard Stephens' team appears in the journal NeuroReport.
    Dr Stephens, from Keele's school of psychology, came up with the idea for the study after swearing when he accidentally hit his thumb with a hammer as he built a garden shed.
    If they want to use this pain-lessening effect to their advantage they need to do less casual swearing


    Researcher Dr Richard Stephens
    He recruited 64 volunteers to take part and each individual was asked to submerge their hand in a tub of freezing water for as long as possible while repeating a swear word of their choice.
    They were then asked to repeat the experiment, this time using a more commonplace word that they would use to describe a table.
    Despite their initial expectations, the researchers found that the volunteers were able to keep their hands plunged in the ice water for a longer period of time when repeating the swear word.
    Natural response
    On average, the students could tolerate the pain for nearly two minutes when swearing compared with only one minute and 15 seconds when they refrained from using expletives.
    FROM THE TODAY PROGRAMME





    More from Today programme
    While it is not clear how or why this link exists, the team believes that the pain-lessening effect occurs because swearing triggers our natural 'fight-or-flight' response.
    They suggest that the accelerated heart rates of the volunteers repeating the swear word may indicate an increase in aggression, in a classic fight-or-flight response of downplaying a weakness or threat in order to deal with it.
    Dr Stephens said the findings might also explain why the centuries-old practice of cursing developed and still persists today.
    But he cautioned: "If they want to use this pain-lessening effect to their advantage they need to do less casual swearing.
    "Swearing is emotional language but if you overuse it, it loses its emotional attachment."
    Rohan Byrt of the Casual Swearing Appreciation Society said he thought the study was the first time swearing's benefits had been proved.
