Yes, I’m aware I can curse on the internet - it’s not my first day here. I use the exact words I mean to use, and I’m more a fan of the precision F-strike than indiscriminately carpet-bombing the place with “fucks”. Stop word-policing me (and others).
Edited to add alt text.
Yeah, this went over about as well as expected. And the irony and hypocrisy of the free speech absolutists coming out of the woodwork to tell us all what we can and can’t say is not lost on me.
To me fork makes way more sense, I feel like it conveys a totally different tone, and therefor has a different function in communicating
I guess a sensored f—k does too, but not anywhere near as distinct.
You’re forking right it does.
Censored f–k or f*ck or whatever doesn’t really convey a different tone, other than trying to say something without saying it. Which is annoying and frustrating, it puts work onto the listener that should have been done by the communicator.
Fork does come out with a different tone, because it doesn’t sound as harsh. It’s like how saying shit is a bit less severe than saying fuck - fork would be less than both of these, maybe on par with crap.
