Avoid excessive profanity. Posts with egregious profanity may be deleted or moved to the Temporary Forum. Please recognize that empirical studies have proven that frequent and gratuitous use of obscene language reflects poorly on the speaker’s / writer’s credibility (SOURCES: http://bit.ly/profanitystudy1 http://bit.ly/profanitystudy2 http://bit.ly/profanitystudy3). On the other hand, thoughtful and unexpected use of profanity can have an effective, and at times, artful effect. I shit you not.
