I think he's referring to F@ckin and the like... it goes around the cuss-checker but conveys the exact same message.

It's usually the momma's boys who need attention and try to come across as bad boys on the internet that feel the need to convey the F-word.

this is the last place I feel like I can cuss. Damn it. how about we start just one post, like TOW and we call it the cuss post. and we allow cussing in there only. So I can get it out of my f-ing system.

Maybe we should just try acting like more mature individuals. Lets try substituting nice words for those harsh words. For example:
we could say pee pee instead of Piss
we could say poop instead of ****
we could say harlet instead of b!tch or skank
we could say fornicate instead of Fock
(I personally like the word coitus....for example "I performed Coitus Interruptus last night on my girlfriend so she wouldn't get pregnant")

See people we can be mature about this.

You know, I suspected that someone edited one of my posts haha. I thought I said "This is me being a <male body part>" but a few hours later it read "This is me being a jerk."

Hate to break it to you, MB-Bob, but people curse. Way more now than they used to. And it is becoming more and more acceptable in the media and in society. The other day on network TV, I heard them say "*ss" and I'm fairly sure "sh*t". They regularly talk about penises and vaginas, while not curses, certainly things they did not talk about on TV 15 years ago. College professors drop the s-bomb in class. My boss once dropped 6 friggins and a F-ing in one meeting. (he died shortly thereafter, so maybe the Big Dog upstairs did not like that too much) And sometimes, a Fr-ggin' just adds emphasis. The editor does a good job of asterisk-ing them there naughty words that so offend you, which I think is a pretty good compromise, IMHO.
