Hmm.  Hate to be the guy who calls this out, but I've noticed a higher than
normal use of "casual use" vulgarity in the last few weeks.  Not really from

but it's there.

Just a general call to keep it clean, folks.

No, thanks for calling it out! There's a multitude of interesting and diverse
ways with which to be offensive without resorting to vulgarity :) (1)

Or use non-juniorised imagination and invent your own words - even if people
don't spragle and just think that you're squiffy.
