The answer of course is to introduce our own non-swear swear words, such as:
You stupid Ganson.
You annoying little Tomkins.
Why don't you just Boris off?

Absolute bunkum but beautifully wrapped up as if it actually made sense.

Quote: karetaker "Rugby crowds are far more mild mannered than the football mob, I don’t go to footy games as I don’t follow any team,but the stuff I hear when I bother to watch a game on Sky, well I laugh my head off about someone moaning about someone shouting f***, especially when the footy lot really go OTT.

Anyway we at a sporting event were passions can and will run high, we not at the opera.'"


I was actually taken to a Soccer match some months back at Anfield (second match ever ... as I dislike tip tap). I was expecting it to be horrible compared with rugby league. But I was very pleasantly surprised. The behaviour on that day was superb.
TV are always apologising for something ... they will be offering counselling next if we happen to hear something which we may not like.

Just my opinions unless it's a FACT, in which case it's a fact.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_74166.jpeg



I only recently discovered that French Canadians have their own set of swear words all based on different parts of the church (building).
To develop silver2’s point how about
“You totally wicked stadium” as an equivalent of “bloody” all the way up to the nuclear option of “you’re just a cheap DW”.

Is it though? The word has no intrinsic insult value, it's what the listener applies to it.

If you heard a swear word in a different language that you did not understand, you would not know. The word remains the same it's all about the intepretation and how the listener wants to react.

In reminds me a little of a Buddhist approach which would be to take this swearing situation as a learning opportunity and instead of "reacting" to it (taking offence) take it as a chance to learn about why this is hurtful to you and if it even actually is hurtful or if perhaps you are carrying around some heavy preconceptions about things that could be shed and hopefully lead to a more fulfilling and happier life.
