   It can make an impact to the right persons.  For instance, if     
   someone were to try and mess with me in my shop, a simple "Get     
   the f*ck out!" ends all further discussion.   
      
   Meanwhile, someone gave me the heads up that Nicholas Cage hosts   
   a new series on The History of Swear Words.  One episode per     
   word. I've only seen 2 episodes so far. Episode 1 is the F word.     
   Episode 2 is the S word.  It can be very funny. Afterall.. what     
   those words?  ..they basically just sounds.   
      
   I have an aunt who's daughter had the habit of using the F word     
   in practically every other sentence. One time when I was     
   visiting, I asked my aunt why doesn't she step and tell her     
   daughter to cease her cussing.  My aunt immediately broke out     
   with something like "F*ck, sh*t, p*ss, etc.. are just sounds.     
   They mean nothing to me."   English is not her 1st language, but     
   her english is otherwise very good.  She has a point.   
      
   Try it yourself.  Here's a video clip of "How to swear in     
   Russian" that was posted in the MUSIC echo recently.      
   Technically, their strongest word sounds like HOY.  Is that all     
   so devastating?  ;)
