Buzzfeed put up an interesting quiz recently related to how much people swear.

Here's the quiz

I got 29/70, making me "very fucking sweary". Some of the swear words were fucking hilarious.

I don’t even know anymore.

I'm scoring a 29, too. I mean, I probably swear a lot and I really do try my best but... it seems I'm just not creative enough. [lol]

Last one in the list though. That's rather hefty, I'd think twice before saying that to anyone.

21/70.

Like how "Piers Morgan" is at the end of the list.evil grin

Also, what does "Quim" mean? 'Cos "Quim" is also the diminuitive version of "Joaquim", a common Portuguese name.

9/70. I've never heard some of those used. The list seems kinda UK/Europe biased though.

[up][up][up] An older word of uncertain origin referring to female genitalia. Made famous(ish) in recent times through its brief use by Loki in The Avengers.

6/70, and half of them I used the literal meaning instead of cuss connotation.

I didn't see chingada on the list, which should be familiar to peeps in US education system.

23/70 Very Fucking Sweary. These phrases and compound words sound so weird to me. And does it count if I said any of them during the test? Because that would be some serious dick-tickling shit.

11/70

There's a fuckton of combinations/terms that I haven't heard of before, and I don't recognize a majority of those as such terms.

Am I the only one that has actually said "douche canoe?"

Technically, two of mine were said when I was quoting a Daria episode. Thanks, personified Guy Fawkes Day....

I don’t even know anymore.

9/70 for words that are a part of my regular vocabulary.

29/70 for words I would say if quoting or reciting a script (and expect to see often).

So, so, so much British slang that isn't part of my local culture on that list.
