This is a pretty tricky question.

One person's profanity is another's funny word.

This is exactly what I was thinking while reading this. I personally do not think "pissed" as in I am pissed off is a bad thing to say. BUT if my kids went to school and said it they would soooo get a detention.

Trust me when you use the replacement words like freaking, frickin', Friggin' etc, I get the drift and it has the exact same impact.

And you say twat like it's a bad thing

I was just at the bank, and a father was walking to his van with his 6 or 7 year old, she was mildly crying...and he yelled "Shut your f**king mouth, and get in the f**cking van." Then he got in...sat down, and lit a smoke. (but he cranked the window half an inch, it was raining)

So, if using full out foul language here will curb you from saying stuff like this to your children, I'm all for it.

I fail to see any coolness in sh*t language....and for some of you it takes you twice as long to say what you want to say.

Yes but for no reason should anyone ever be able to use 'minerals'.
