Depends. Nowadays, the frequency is pretty inconsistent. When I was a child, in summer camp, I would especially curse my head off like a sailor. Just about every statement on my part would include some form of curse word. My favourite cursing phrase that I made up was: "Mother Fuck Shit". It wasn't until quite recently when it hit me that this basically was making allusions to Scat. A mother that likes to fuck shit. It's unpleasant to think of visually. (I am not thinking of my mother when I do this.) I think part of the appeal for cursing in general, the phrase included, was that as a kid, I thought that this was cool and badass. I had nothing else that really put me on the same level as my peers so, I am guessing that I held hard onto this "privilege". It is pretty pathetic, now that I think about it. Of all of the other things that I could have latched onto and felt a connection with, it had to be this.
P.S. There were times when my friends, most of which did curse, even got annoyed at the bizarre frequency of my cursing.
How often do you swear?
