True, but I can't see myself screaming, "EXPLATIVE DELETED!" I don't know the "origins" of curse words but obviously someone had a bad day, and then it caught on... <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
Or not! I think expletives derive from the "natural" uncultured personality. Culture being a generally agreed upon set of mores. The dark side is that culture is unquestionably a control mechanism. Whoever establish the mores, establishes class structure and controls society. Hence, a never ending battle between society and the individual.
Personally, I always feel better after I've turned the air "blue". Being a rebel at heart, it helps that the behavior is anitsocial.
