I wonder if Lord (Sir) is considered blasphemous.

Must be a regional thing. Seems there’s still a few that the shock value hasn’t lessened.

It has to be one of the most flexible words around. And, it’s an acronym for a law with such a highly legal sounding name.

Now be honest - when you see "f-word", do you really think it means some abstract four-letter word that starts with an “f”, such as fart, or do you say ****?

Also, a “fart” involves both “body parts and functions”, and it definitely is “common today”, but it isn’t considered swearing. I guess members of the AARP are doing more farting than f-wording.
