How often do you use profanities?

[Sugar & Sins 156]

When I think it will add a bit of humour into a sentence, plus I don't really see them as bad words or anything, I mean I always wondered how words could be seen as offensive. I've never been offended by words, only actions. 

[Jon C 229]

Only with people who I know don't have a problem with it, and even then I don't use anything worse than fuck.

[uml4mj4m 134]

I do all the time, but not around family. The worst I've said around my family is "Jesus Christ", if you can call that offensive.

[Denim&Venöm 18,929]

Depends on what you consider profanity. I don't consider words like bitch, damn, crap, ass & goddammit to be profanity. If it can be said on TV anytime before 8pm, it's pretty safe. Other than that I don't swear at all, using some other words or phrases instead, a fact that annoys my parents who cuss like sailors.

updating my answer because I've changed

 

I use them quite a bit, especially when I'm pissed or excited about something. It's even worse when I'm fangirling too. I say the f word so many times it's not even funny. I just can't help it though. I mean, it's how I am and how express my joy/anger as well as talking in all caps when I do.

[CaptainDoubloon 856]

Very rarely, I have to be really upset about something. Normally I can't bring myself to curse just because.

[Ashen Pathfinder 16,161]

I tend to curse a fair amount depending in the situation; and usually if I am alone. I try not to use such language around others; especially my parents, though I may use it around friends if I am upset over something.

[gamecubeguy214 2,512]

I use profanity when I'm feeling salty or when I'm trying to really emphasize how much I hate or love something, and the worse the swear word, the stronger I feel about that subject.

[Denim&Venöm 18,929]

Depends on your definition of a profanity. Bitch, damn, ass, douche, aren't profanities. 

 

But I never drop the f bomb, hole in combination with ass, or any ethnic or sexual slurs. 

[Detritus 258]

Fairly often, but only when it's warranted.

 

I'm not one of those people who drop f-bombs in every sentence.

[Varrack 1,080]

Never. Don't plan on it, and don't like them anyway..

[MLS_Brony 177]

I generally only use it in situations where it's tolerated. Saying that, when I'm at work I tend to use the F-bomb like it's a comma most of the time. :\

[Corgis 574]

I swear next to never but I have gotten in the habit of swearing when something goes horribly wrong.  I just save it for when there really is a problem and I feel the need to let some anger out.

[That Guy with the CMB 5,873]

Way too much, when I shouldn't do it at all. D:

 

 

[Lonk Chase 255]

It seems like when I'm really mad I try to show how frustrated I am by using minor swears.

I sometimes say swears in my head.

[MorningFlash 214]

Fairly often; I use it to either hyperbolise my point, to express pain when ive stubbed my toe or something stupid, or to complain.

[NightmareLuna800 1,383]

I have never sworn once in my life, it really ain't my thing and I just don't do it. Simple as that.

[Chrylestia600 1,307]

Never. Not online, nor in real life.

[Noandnoandno 100]

Recently quite often actually, very much so almost never in real life, over microphone or in text I spam f bomb there and s word that almost all the time, it wasn't always the case, came in naturally, who knows why.

[DubWolf 17,263]

I'm a potty mouth; I use them all the time. It's not a good habit when you're sometimes in that setting where it's not really acceptable to use them. Maybe I should resort to saying "smurf" everytime I know I would've cussed.

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,467]

I actually do fairly often, especially if I am in a bad mood. Just the typical swearings, though sometimes I tend to make my own up. XD I try to show absolute restraint when speaking say with my doctor or someone similar, but other than that, the words happen. I don't see it as an issue of any sort, just expression is all.

[TheRockARooster 51,171]

Too much but I do my best, not to swear around my friends that don't like it.

[Guest]

Every chance I can get. Almost all of my sentences contain at least one cuss word.

[Dreambiscuit 9,691]

I use profanity quite often to be honest. I love to swear. I swear when I'm happy, mad or just for recreation. I don't swear around kids (unless their language is worse than mine) or around others who would be offended by it. And I keep it under control at times and places where it would be inappropriate. 

I try to keep my swearing civilized and use cartoony swear words instead of real ones most of the time, but a nice choice F word, or (in extreme cases) a C word seems to do the job when nothing else can. It may not be the most attractive talent habit, but there are worse things I could do.
