Real life: Usually the worst I've said is "Shit!" (Actually, had a funny lecture from my mum as I described something as "That was poopy." (instead of using the s-word). She lectured me by saying "What are you, two years old?" (Yes, when you babysit 12/15 aged children for a church, you really don't want them to pick up the "f-word" and worse.) Most of the time, however, my swearing is in Cantonese - and that's dirty as heck.

Online: Mostly I try to censor myself because a lot of online is based on context - if I'm swearing, that may be offensive to other users, when I don't mean to be.

Haha, just yesterday I spoke with a language partner over Skype and she asked me to tell her all the Cantonese curses I know so I recited The Five Brave Generals of the Mun Clan. She thought it was really funny to hear a white guy curse so well in Cantonese. I thought about saying hit the airplane as well, but that's not something you say to someone you just met :wacko:.

*snicker* Well, that's funny!

I was an English language partner to a couple of people, and it was always amusing to learn bad words in Mandarin Chinese. :)
 
Let's just say if I had a censor people would confuse me for a living car alarm.

Lived 19 years, never said anything that could be thought as a "swear" word. I've just never found a need to do so.
You deserve a medal.

I have an extensive vocabulary. I usually only swear when I need to or when I really want to make a point. Sometimes I can swear just for the sake of it, but i can easily choose not to.

Actually there are more than a word for 'mother fucker' and at least 4 character for 'fuck' in mandarin, which one of them also means the sun.
And there is no counter part for 'shit' but fart is used instead.

I have a bad habit of cussing, but at the same time I like it.

Now I curse a few dozen times a minute because of Dark Souls 3, or whenever I hit something from clumsiness

Around friends, all the time.
