One must get acquainted with The Miller's Tale, then.

I know there are many people who use 'swear words' out of context and grossly inappropriately, however I am defending one's right to free speech. Afterall you cannot possibly generalise every youth who swears into this obstreperous nature.

It is unfortunate that the English language is so awfully crafted that there is no room for exaggerated expression without the stiff upper lip getting involved.
