Damn works, fuck doesn't; ass works, shit doesn't, but crap does. I don't recall the status of any others.
@AmyTheBruce Really? I don't want to play.
@barjoe because now there are only a few words left? Poor baby.....
It's high time they did this. Sometimes I do wonder, though, how many words that I use are unwitting ethnic slurs. I regularly hear people use the word "gypped" - I wonder how many of them know that word's origins?
