OMG DB (oh my goodness Demon Blaster)... Good version, I use God & other religious words as expressions, never disrespect for religion & have always known it as OH MY GOD, like that what you said)
I thought about the others like ffs etc but wasn't sure they'd allow it here cause of stronger swears but I could put some in separately then if they allow them I could add em aye
lol at too much work, nah not for me :D, I'll go the quicker way anytime:)
Goody onya Mathy many thx for that, & comments, always lovely to hear I'll update in near future 🙂
Hadn't hear a couple of those so learning too. As for the MH one's a lot I'm learning. All good, like learning.
Q (Quercus) I'm hoping it's the one's you mentioned that we can't have here cause I slip the odd mild swear in but unusual they didn't show in email the post that I couldn't have published which I thought be the case, fair enough though and thx for input & time 🙂
We'd prefer people didn't use acronyms for swear words - when writing your posts, imagine you're in mixed company and use alternative language rather than swearing.
Well there goes NFI as an acronym. Curious, as these are well used, and generally not in an abusive manner towards another individual. Usually used to describe a person’s thoughts/feelings, about something they are talking about/relating to? After all, OMG could be regarded as blasphemy by some people? Not wanting a fight, just interested in reasoning, Cheers M:)
