I've been paying attention to when, where, and how I curse, just because a friend mentioned to me that I curse relatively frequently, albeit in slightly abnormal situations. Here's my unscientific account of my swearing for the past week;
(note, I take each swearword as the basis, rather than each instance. This means that strings of profanities, while isolated to a short span of time, take up a larger percentage)
2 words, 3.8%: Hockey
Example: "Goddammit Lu, gotta make that save."
Reasoning: This figure was up significantly during the Cup Final, but this week it was about finding out a player was injured or something along those lines.
7 words, 13.5%: Games
Example: "Egypt you son's of bitches, I will end you!"
Reasoning: God damned Egyptians stole my city in Civ 4.
8 words, 15.4%: School related
Example: "How the fuck did I get a D? Oh wait, that's good here."
Reasoning: D here down under means 'Distinction,' but sometimes it messes me up. It also included some swearing at deadlines.
13 words, 25%: Australia
Example: "Put on some god-damned shoes, fucking Aussies."
Reasoning: They look like assholes wearing flip flops around all the time.
22 words, 42.3%: Eggs
Example: "Fuck you you piece of shit bastard, don't you dare fucking break on me shit sucker!"
Reasoning: I get really upset when I accidentally break the yolk of an egg I'm trying to cook over easy. I like my eggs to be runny, dammit. Pretty much all 22 words came during two cases of eggs breaking.
Total, 52.
