"Fuck" & "cunt" among my favourite words, which is probably obvious by the amount I use them (see also "cock" & "wanker").

There are kinds of linguistic correctness that I think are essential (ie preventing misunderstanding) and kinds I think are probably a waste of time, but I don't like how use of the vernacular is often confused with having a poor grasp of grammar - see also "people only swear because they don't have a decent vocabulary". No. I swear because my meaning is best expressed by swearing!

I do have a rather severe attachment to the avoidance of split infinitives, however, even if it's not a Proper Rule in Englisj.
