Quote: No I f***in dont!
I appears you are missing a couple of essential apostrophes, one after the "in" indicating a missed letter, the "g"; secondly "dont" is an Old English word meaning "to want to do" as opposed to "don't" which short for "do not" - which is actually almost the opposite in meaning. Curious!

A common misconception amongst the more prudish residents of the country that invented the word "rooster" so that they wouldn't have to say "cockerel".

Somebody researched that?  
That research is not clean enough to spit upon.

Swing a hammer and hit your thumb as hard as you can. Please show how your educated and grown-up self would express his immediate reaction.

No. I swore a couple of times when I was probably about 5 when I was mad at my brother. I got my mouth washed out with soap and I have never sworn again. Not even once. I just don't see a need for it.
I guess it's hard for some of you to realize there are more civilized people than yourselves.

I was gonna reply "ok boomer" and leave it at that, but that would've proved your point.

What's a boomer? Is that a swear word?

It's a reference to baby boomers. I take it you've been blissfully unaware of the meme...?

Oh. And no, I'm much younger than a baby boomer.

Nope. I even pronounce it wrong. I pronounce it MAY MAY, and my kids have to remind me it is meeeeeem. My way is better.

I've been called a boomer, even though I'm nowhere near the age range.

Au contraire, as our French friends say. Cursing and swearing are simply alternate choices of expression for added emphasis, based on those expressions' connotations.
As with all forms of human expression, you must consider your audience. For some groups, dropping a mild 'damn' into conversation might be quite daring.

It's either an adjective or a possessive: your choice.

This is a formal setting, so avoid ambiguity: "for the sake of f***".
Or, if you really want to sound like a posh twat: "nam vulpes eruit".

Hmm. I've always thought it was "For f***'s sake", as if f*** was a possessive proper noun.
But then, I'm a neo-briar from Ohio, so what do I know.
