When I was in the Army I used it Frequently . I can't shake the habit as a civilian leading to a lot of awkward stares like this.

I have no problem with cussing, I just rarely do it, to the point that sometimes friends I've known for a long while look at me in surprise when I drop an f-bomb irl

I don't think it is a generational thing as much as a society thing. Pretty sure coarse language has always been favored in military life and certain other professions, but limited in acceptance and scope outside of these smaller circles. In the modern age we have just eliminated common courtesy in favor of narcissistic impulses.
I noticed it the other week in a gathering of 40's to 80's folks where the language was more relaxed, yet 1 adult had brought along 2 small children (between age 7 and 11) and a few of us had to remind the others to keep it clean in front of the kids.

There's a funny YouTube video of a Bobby knight interview on the use of the F word. Can't link cause I'm on phone

It's my second favorite word behind motherfricker. I often use the two in combination. Like "frick that mothafrickin' frick." Everyone knows I carry bag of motherfrickers wherever I go. It just comes out. I think Samuel Jackson may have fricked my motherfricking momma.

My son is a Marine and drops it frequently, but he does try and monitor it around me. That is just out of respect for me as Mom.

Definitely more of an age thing than a generational thing. I heard plenty of cussing from my parents and older siblings growing up, but now they all roll their eyes when I do it.

More socioeconomic than generational.

I don't think so. A few weeks ago I watched Saturday Night Fever and it was a frickton of frick.

Patently false.

how much someone swears is a good way to determine how intelligent and trashy someone is.

I'm probably in a minority but I have never said this word out loud. I don't cuss hardly at all, but that is one that's never said.
Seems like this would lead to some disturbingly clinical dirty talk in the bedroom...

I love a good frick :wink:, but goddamnit is just such a pleasure at releasing my frustration.

See, I think that's fricking bullshite. Unless you're in a work setting, where the word frick is not appropriate anyway, then part of being treated equally is getting used to hearing the word frick said your presence. If women want to be equal, they have to take the bad with the good.
