Never understood why ‘damn’ is a swear word. Is it a religious thing?
It’ll never stop being funny to me how in the US it’a apparently considered pretty bad and even gets censored while here in germany it’s one of those child friendly swears that you expect kindergarten kids to say.
In Norway “shit” is considered the child friendly way of swearing since it’s not religious. I still have no idea why it’s considered swearing in English/USA
Interesting, here in germany I’d say that’s like a medium level swear (the sexual ones are what I’d consider high level, the religious ones usually no one cares about, at least in the north).
I wonder if the 3 usual categories - religious, sexual, fecal - can be approximately ranked (at least with one being the clear “worst” or “least bad”) in every culture or if sometimes it’s all over the place.
That sharp drop of fucks is when Torvalds took some time off to work on his anger issues
