In lemmo we say fuck because why the fuck did you censor fuck?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago (1 children)

because not everyone likes to swear. i know, shock horror!

But...then...use a different word?

I'm so confused. You still swore. We knew what you meant and you knew what you meant. You just censored the text. We've got alternatives with no censoring. Message me for Jesus Approved cursing. (please don't)

Edit: removed zoomer slight.

sorry, are you the swear police ??

the phrase that people are repeating is not 'screw ice' or 'screw the police'. 'f***' is much closer to the original. i just prefer not to type out the actual letters; is that so bad ?

Sometimes, yeah. A lot of the time peeps don't know what they can get away with.

I don't think it's bad, but it does confuse me and confusion is no fun.
