Is it normal i think censored beeps are more funny than actual swear words

Example: in the play The Book Of Mormon, there’s a scene where the main character is singing the song “I believe,” and he barges in and tries to convert a group of Africans, and at one point one of them says “what the **** is this!?”

Now, the version I watched bleeped it out, and I really don’t think it would have been as funny just to hear him say the actual word. I really don’t know why, but it just is.

    It depends on the situation to me. Sometimes the bleeps are funnier. Sometimes they just sound weird.

    Yeah, I've watched stuff with the beeps, and then watched the uncensored version and it just sounded crude. I don't care about swearing at all, but it just sounded weird to hear them swear then.

    It's only funny to me in a show where people don't normally swear, or if they just throw in random sound effects like they did on aqua teen hunger force.

    I totally get it. When I was younger and I thought swearing was a horrible sin I thought beeps were hilarous.
