— A Pong Lemon, by Prince Janus

Bayonetta’s supposed to be a classy and in-control sort of lady, so when she goes "Fuck off!" in the middle of a combo like a cockney market-stall vendor noticing a police man it feels a bit incongruous. What, so you just disco danced a purple frog into existence and made it lick a centaur to death, but now it’s time for some gritty realism? I like my swearing, but in the wrong place it brings down the whole gosh darn tone, <Beat> you cunt.

Eddie Murphy: (impersonating Bill Cosby) "You cannot say filth, flarn, filth, flarn, filth in front of people." (normal voice) And I say, "I never said no 'filth, flarn, filth'." (impersonating Cosby) "You know what I’m talking about. I can’t use the type of language that you use, but you know what I mean when I say 'filth, flarn, flarn, flarn, filth'." (normal voice) I said, "I never said 'filth, flarn, filth'. I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’m offended you called. Fuck you." That’s when Bill got pissed and said: (impersonating Cosby) "That’s what I’m talking about. You cannot say... 'fuck' in front of people." (normal voice) And I got mad. Because he thought that was my whole act. Like I just walked out on-stage and cursed and left. I manage to stick in some jokes between the curses. You couldn’t give no curse show. Walk out, say, "Hey, filth flarn, motherfucker, dick, pussy, snot and shit. Good night. Good night. Suck my dick. Bye-bye."

— Eddie Murphy: Raw

Scott The Woz: Swearing is the generic staple of the video game player, you truly play video games if you can say (bleep) about them. And if you aren't willing to say (bleep) uncensored, get the (bleep) out of here.
