We know that highly intelligent people tend to view the world and the things around them differently. Surprisingly, they also tend to be really proficient at hurling a creative swear word, says a new research. Contrary to the popular belief, it's not the less educated or dumb people who swear a lot.

Most of us tend to avoid those who swear a lot thinking that they do not possess enough words to express themselves properly, and are hence limited in thinking as well. Psychologists Kristin Joy of Marist College and Timothy Jay of Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts believe it may just be the opposite, which they state in their study.

Their study shows that the skills to make up new swear words is very closely related to having high vocabulary and fluency. People with a high IQ tend to have both of these and are hence more adept at coming up with novel swear words.

I've said almost all of those.  That's just run of the mill southern stuff.  My redneck colloquialisms are much more entertaining, but they might actually be what your average sailor or truck driver says with a y'all thrown in here and there.

I think swear words are great for emphasis in certain situations.

But like redneck colloquialisms... It is the artful application of the words that make it successful - Anyone can swear like a muleskinner.

'Shakin' like a dog sh1ttin' peach pits'

See? Pictures in words....

Bring it up as a quote. He is changing the font on a middle letter, which for all intents, makes it not the word, and gets it past the filters.

Parlor tricks.

Am I being Gaslighted here? Is anyone else seeing this or is this one of my routine acid flashbacks from the early 90's?
@Frank Cannon

No, I see the F bombs writ large as well.  Must be some kind of formatting @Dexter is engaged with.
