I agree with this 1000% and I will gladly add my name.

Anyone who has spent five minutes around me will tell you I am no prude and I can get kinda "out there" sometimes. WAY out there. As in, you have NO IDEA how out there.

But ever since I was a kid my opinion on this has not changed:

If you have to use the f-word to conjure up emotion or anger, or whatever it is you are trying to conjure up, you don't know how to write--in my opinion. If you have to use any vulgarity with regularity as a stylistic device, you don't know how to write--in my opinion. To me, it's a cheap carnival trick and it makes my skin crawl. Kind of the literary equivalent of a pie in the face. Couldn't you think of something else??? But hey, you're talking about a guy who can't sit through a David Mamet play like Glengarry Glen Ross. Ok I get it. You know the f-word. You know how to use it every other word. Point well taken. But I'm outta here. I'm very bored now.

Also, that James Blunt song--"You're Beautiful." Let's talk about that.

Ok, I have stood on many a NYC subway platform catching the morning train, the midday train and the midnight train. I have stood on every platform in that city at every hour of the day. And I am thinking: Smokin' hot Upper East Side woman fresh from Saks is standing there with her hedge fund husband.

A kid who has been smoking dope all day is standing there in his busted sneakers, walks up to her and says:

"I saw you from across the way. And hey, I'm so f.....high, I don't have a job...and I know you are living in a 10 million dollar apartment with this f..ing banking dude who bought you that 5 carat ring, but I just think you're f...ing beautiful, and I'm so f....ing high, don't you want to f...ing ditch that money grubber and come live with me on my piece of cardboard on 14th street?"

And she turns to him says:

"Get lost you lazy loser."

But I digress.

Anyway, I sign my name.
