Some of the things these days are revolting. It makes me ashamed to be a part of this generation. I see sh*t on Facebook that actually encourages these girls to become sluts and become pregnant. They're all so f*cking stupid. They get mad over the stupidest sh*t and spell like retards because they think it's cute. And they're all attention whores too. It's all "like this if" and "like that if". It's f*cking annoying. Everytime I see a display of that stupid sh*t I want to slap somebody. [Supreme]

I also am ashamed to be apart of this generation. I see kids down the street, that about about 9-10, smoking. And the girls are losing their virginity at a younger age as the years go on.

[Yossarianite]

Everybody is crazy nowadays, the explicit words are usually brought from useless kids in their friend circle or class, anways, I swear and abuse a lot too....... when I'm angry...

[zoo3891]

I don't remember ever doing it to sound cool, I just sort of started. Maybe at one time I thought I was gruff, or badass for cussing, but kids seem to do it because it's natural.

[deepthroatgta6]

Cussing has been a way to express frustration or anger but today its the 'in' thing for the kids. Its everywhere. Some might not even know what the word means. They just pick it up.

[Icarus]

I'm from Atlantic Canada, so cursing is part of my genetic programming.

I used to get detention all the time in first grade for swearing, because the same fat kid would always rat me out.

I swear quite a bit, but I try and tone it down when the situation dictates (e.g. with my family, kids, work). Around my mother and grandparents, I will swear, but I will keep it to very basic swears; I would never say f*ck, for example, in their presence (or c*nt, but I think that's implied).

[RomansMoobs]

If you're going to get offended by what someone says you need your head checked. There are more important things to worry about.

Agreed. Especially about the part where girls try to "talk cute". I have a few FB friends who happen to be girls and they make stupid statuses like " Like if yhu wannha qood morninq' post ; ) " and dumb sh*t like that. They also bash on other girls and claim that they're normal as f*ck when in reality people know they aren't. $20,000 here in New Jersey for just 1 of these chicks to go to school. 5 bitches at a bus stop is $100,000 dollars and yet these bitches can't even talk right let alone know where Bangladesh is. Ridiculous.

Don't replace your g's with q's also. It's retarded.

I would say it's T.V, video games, and other forms of media that caused it. Another possibility would be that they hear other kids saying these words (most likely older children they go to school with) causing a chain-like reaction.
When I was in second/third grade, I knew most of these words, but I would very rarely say them, and if I did, I was mad. I never did it to act "cool" or "tough", until I got in 5th/6th grade.
To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if I heard these kids speaking in that manner; we live in a world where 7 year old kids play GTA, CoD, and other games above their age.
When I was younger, I would mostly play games such as Burnout/other racing games. It wasn't until 4th grade when I started to get into violent games. CoD was the first, and then in 6th grade, I discovered Grand Theft Auto. After that point, I played rated M games. Times have changed, and with the popularity of CoD/GTA increasing, younger crowds of kids will stat playing these games. The only people that can stop this are the parents of the kids. Age laws don't help, as kids will just get their parents to purchase it for them.
Overall, media caused this. Young girls now learn how to dress from watching Jersey Shore, young boys now learn how to act/talk from CoD/Southpark.
My two cents.

[Gst0395]

Ugh, I agree with you. Just watch this. Typical CoD kid who won't stop swearing.

Xbox chat is the lowest common denominator, you can't expect it to represent the common populace. As for the topic, sh*t's normal. Maybe people are swearing younger and more frequently, but saying it's the end of the world or civilized society is asinine. Culture changes, whether you like it or not. Whoever said the fault is in the parents who cheered on the fighting is right. They also need to smack their kids around for insolence next time that kind of sh*t happens.

Anyway, the folks who say "I wish I was born in a different generation" are being just as contrived as the folks who say "like if you think this is REAL music" on youtube. Seriously, you live in 2012. You have access to almost everything from the past, you have good technology, you have the internet and most of all you never know what's going to happen next. Get the f*ck over yourself and live in the world.

Nah bro, I'm pretty sure the 80s was the best time to be alive. None of this Justine Beaver or Lady Gagger crap, only REAL music (there was no pop music then you see, only stuff like Guns N Roses), REAL video games (OMG retro games are way better than MW2) and GOOD movies (have you even seen Scarface? Nobody my age has). People were all mature and did none of this attention seeking stuff you see today like on facebook. It doesn't matter that I was born nearly a decade after it ended I KNOW all that stuff from my parents and what I've seen on the internet and TV. God, today's generation is sh*t and I'm so much better than these lowly people.

Yours sincerely, a surprisingly high number of kids on these forums.

How do these kids get such dirty mouths at a young age and what is up with their parents? I wanted to throw my football at them and slap their smiles off their face...

Huh. So violence is acceptable to you, but not "profanity"? Your priorities are really, really f*cked up.

I am definitely guilty of partaking in bad language as a child. My first complete sentence was probably "f*ck that sh*t", or something. I grew up in a bad environment, and my behavior reflected that. I can recall being scolded in preschool for cursing.

Same here. Exactly this ^

[Vercetti27]

it's tv. the media decides the boundaries for our society, and we as the younger generation implement the new boundaries. they'll get stretched back further and further, thats life.

[Stinky12]

Some crazy world we live in where parents of today will encourage their kids to fight each other. If parents encourage their kids to do that, what else will they not encourage? I won't be surprise if one of them starts stealing and the parents don't blame themselves for not giving their kids discipline, instead blame it on others.

Heard a story once (forgot if it's from this forum or somewhere else).
This guy was at the supermarket with his friend and a kid was running all over the place while the kid's mom was down the aisle not giving a damn on what her kid is doing. The kid then ran up to the guy and his friend, started fooling around and all of a sudden bite the guy's leg, draws blood, and starts laughing. The guy who got bit, looked at his wound and started yelling, oh sh*t did he got it?! His friend knew his was acting, started acting too by also yelling, do you think he got it?! The kid then started crying and mommy comes running from down the aisle and started yelling at the guy and his friend, creates a scene, and threats to call the cop for hurting her kid.
As the guy was in line checking out his item, the mom still behind continue to yell and say your going to jail and other BS. So the guy said to her, you better go get your kid check out cause he (the guy) got AIDS (he really don't have AIDS). Well that shut her up, and as both of them got out of the market, mom sat on the curb and started crying while the guy and his friend went on their way.

Taboo language is common with kids now-a-days.
Since parents (even if they wanted to) can’t chastise their wards what do you expect.
It was always humorous as a kid to use naughty words among themselves. But, when they slipped up and used them in ’public’ and weren’t corrected it began to be habit.
75% of the people on this forum are children. Just look at the regular use of nasty language. Changing a single letter is really effective at curbing the use of taboo words.
And, then there’s the posting of images that contain the word(s) that can’t be censored.
It’s a wonder the advertisers don’t pack up and leave.

Take another listen to the stand-up ‘comedians’. Listen to what they are actually saying that’s ‘funny’. No laughs? So they start tossing about the taboo words, and everybody roars with laughter. It isn’t the dialogue that’s funny it is the getting away with using a ‘dirty’ word(s) that is humorous.
How can you not expect the kinder to be influenced.

Most of me and my friends rarely swear in public and even private. If I do get angry I'll likely say "bloody" which is a less offensive swear word. Some of the less desirables at my school swore way too much but even though my facebook generation looks bad, there's still some good out there.

[Captain VXR]

Kids think they're f*cking badman when they swear.
When I was like six years old, I was at a friend's house and was excited to learn the word 'wanker' which had been graffitied on a nearby wall. I'm sure my parents had similar experiences and if I ever spawn, then my kid(s) will do the same.
Round here, it's very unusual to find teenagers smoking weed/tobacco, popping pills or drinking booze before they're fifteen, as it should be, drugs at a very young age f*ck people up.
I don't buy any arguments about there being more respect in the past - sure words like c*nt and dick are less offensive than they used to be, however racial and homophobic slurs are now generally taboo, and the 'no dogs no blacks no Irish' signs of the 1960s and earlier would cause a massive international scandal nowadays, for example.

[KaRzY6]

Swearing isn't that bad itself. I swear a lot myself. But what gets me is the age this kids are and in front of their parents. If I swore in front of my mum at that age, it was pretty much asking her to kill me. Haha. Now, she is not really worried about it. Except for words like c*nt.

Like Mockage said, the girls talk all retarded.
