^^^^I view profanity as a verbal exclamation point, to enhance a statement. I begin to become fatigued when it becomes an adjective or adverb in every sentence. It loses its effect when used routinely in every sentence, becomes verbal laziness. You lose your audience. If your message is effective or important to your audience it is unnecessary.

Stated better than I could.
A well placed swear word can really drive home a point you are trying to make, and believe me I can drop one in with the best of them, but it really gets old when you are in a conversation with a group of guys and every other word out of their mouth is the F-bomb.
"Man did you see the F...ing rack on that f...ing buck, that f...er must have went 180. I'd shoot that motherf...er - I wouldn't think about it for a f...ing second. Hey toss me another f...ing beer"
What bothers me more is when I see parents (both mother and father) curse like its normal language around the house (or out in public) in front of their kids.
Everyone is free to speak how ever they want, but the whole trend towards normalizing the kind of speech I gave an example of above, is a bit concerning. The argument "that's just the way people talk now days - get used to it" is lame and a pretty sad commentary on where our society is headed.
