Foul languge is almosr de rigueur these days. Call me old fashioned but the ideas on your blog deserve better than this ubiquitous adulteration, Captain.
I kind of agree. I have a wide vocabulary and I can always find a substitute. I just don't. It isn't laziness either. I like to use swearwords because, like it or not, they are part of our language.
I do take your point though.
If there is a chance of reaching a wider audience, I may be happier to compromise.
Well!
ReplyDeleteI didn't see that one coming.
Thank you very much. This is praise indeed.
CR.

Just because I rarely swear in print myself, doesn't mean I don't appreciate the value of a good old rant... ;)
