Swearing


Swearing has pretty much become part of society's vocabulary these days, so why is it that we still find it funny when we hear someone have a good old rant thats full of expletives?
It could be to do with how we were raised (isn't everything though, really). As a child if you heard someone swear and repeated it infront of your parents, usually you would get told off, this was the same if a teacher heard you, or in fact anyone in an authoritarian position to you. So naturally, like alcohol, as soon as you get the chance to let rip, you do.
When a public figure, especially one in an authorative position such as say, the President of the United States, decides to drop out a naughtly word - it's funny, and everyone talks about it even though it's just another word and isn't of any importance. However, if the person they're talking about when they swear happens to be one Kanye West - then it is appropriate and funny! See below to see what I'm talking about, although many of you probably already know..........
