What do you gain from swearing on a forum?I agree with this, and a very clear and intelligent theory I have for life.
I honestly have no problem with cursing, it is just a part of life for people to curse. But my one thing about it is simple. If you're cursing, then you must not be smart enough to have a larger vocabulary.
What a dumb and needlessly self-righteous statement.
I'm not saying that we should curse all the time. But saying that cursing is dine because of low intelligence? Come on. I know you're smarter than that. I am, I just didn't realize I'd have every lawyer from Timbuktu on here baring down on my one statement. I cleared it up with the post above though, which I'll put below in quotes.
Perhaps the statement was originally created too generalized then. I didn't realize I'd have to cover all my bases when I wrote up that first post.
I believe that you would be better off not cursing, because it is better, and more indicative of a higher intellect when you use a broad vocabulary. Of course, to assume that there is any correlation between the usage of curse words and a low IQ would be absurd.
But when one is using a forum, such as this, there are more times than not that arguments arise. When such moments come forth, both sides are almost always going to be disputing over their differing opinions.
In such a case, a strong opinion is often backed by a logical thought process, that of which is derived from an intelligent individual. If that were the case, then they could further this understanding, that they are in fact an intelligent person, by circumventing the need to use vulgar words.
The reason why my first post was so direct is inpart due to the fact that I can't always be bothered to be absolutely and completely politically correct, as well as this thorough. You'll forgive me if I offended you.
