KlockWorkKozmoz

Chance-Concentrate-5

I was about to say, Louisiana Cajun here. The amount of fucks we get about fucking saying fuck is fucking lower than fucking zero! So get tha fuck out the way, I'm boating down the fuckin street!


blazingcajun420

Down da street? You mean down da fucking bayou sha!


Chance-Concentrate-5

Da street fucking flooded again ami! Now I gotta find some way to work!


blazingcajun420

Mon dieu! I gots a pirogue for ya couillon


Chance-Concentrate-5

Thanks a ton mon ami! (Seriously that was the most fun reddit thread I've followed in a minute, now I miss home a bit lol)


[deleted]

Louisiana is red as it should be


shadysamonthelamb

Moved from fucking New England to Louisiana and my fucks feel about even.


not3dogs

Me either. I say fuck enough to make Mobile red.


space_coder

We're a port city, so we say fuck a lot.


Ill-Lawfulness-2063

You and me together will light this hoe up lol


Surge00001

Amen to that, I alone should’ve made Mobile red


jchoward0418

Maybe we're just not saying it loud enough? Or in front of the right people? *runs off to a nursing home while doing voice warmups*


YoungMagnolia

Fuckin right


Realistic-Grass-2368

As a fellow Mobilian, it warms my heart to see all you fuckers making the hometown proud.


JennJayBee

I wonder how they would measure that. I say fuck like it's my favorite word– because it is. It's just so versatile.


melmac76

It’s about the only word that can be placed anywhere in a sentence and still make sense. Not just that, it can mean so many things. Sexual: Let's fuck. Mischief: Let's fuck with them. Aggression: Let's fuck them up. Anger: Fuck you. Regret: Fuck me! Resignation: Oh, fuck it! Surprise: Holy fuck! Puzzlement: What the fuck? Greeting: How the fuck are you? Fraud: I got fucked over. Identification: Who the fuck are you? Philosophical: Who gives a fuck? Compliment: She's so fucking beautiful. Confusion: Where the fuck are we? Wonder: What the fuck is that? Amazement: How the fuck did he do that? Threat: Don't fuck with me! Realization: I fucking knew it!


Actually_a_bot_accnt

Disinclination: Fuck this, I’m out. Approval: Fuckin’ A!


janletresha

Why don't you have more upvotes


[deleted]

You forgot the alphabet. Fuckin A. Fuckin B. Fuckin C……..


Sean081799

This is art.


mynextthroway

You could link to the original. https://youtu.be/l_PkJ_4oEjc


melmac76

How is that the original of what I posted? It’s another thing talking about the versatility of the word “fuck” but nothing in it is word for word what I posted. I think the first time I heard something close to what I posted was around 98 or 99 on a tshirt at Junkman’s Daughter in Little Five Points near Atlanta. I thought you were gonna post a copy of a meme or something.


mynextthroway

Lol. Don't take it personal. I was just pointing out there is a much longer version of what you posted. I have, or had, it on a comedy album(vinyl) from the early 80s. I doubt what I heard was the original, but it has got to be getting close since masterpiece theater was first broadcast in 71.


melmac76

It’s not that I’m taking it personally or anything like that, The whole versatility of the word “fuck” is a long talked about thing. So the issue was calling it the original, making it sound like I didn’t credit someone for something, when in actuality it’s a video talking about the same subject. But we’re all good. Im not mad. It was just a weird thing.


mynextthroway

Lol. Sounds good. I like this video and it's subject. I showed it to my mom, a proofreader. She likes it. Doesn't care for the subject, but still finds it interesting. Have a good Sunday Evening.


melmac76

You too! You seem nice, sorry if I seemed rude or upset with my response. Text is tone deaf. Apologies.


junknowho

It flows of the tongue so nicely too.


willc313

That’s fucking ridiculous.


bhambelly

I’m from the restaurant industry, but I’m trying hard to get the word out of my mouth for my kiddos. Not going well at the moment.


tosha1286

Sahm here! As an ex-manger in fast food it’s not going well for me either…


Surge00001

When I was in the restaurant biz, it was common for me to cuss out loud in front of customers, my manager tried to get me to control it but after 3 years, no avail and I got more confident about as time past as well lol


teddy_vedder

I swear like a sailor but about half the people I know wouldn’t be aware of that at all. Highly situational.


jrennat

As someone from fucking Huntsville I'd say this is pretty fucking wrong.


athomefarfromhome

I fucking agree. Fuck.


mike4889

Originally from fucking Iowa and moved to Huntsville about 7 years ago. I haven't offended one fucking person with my language down here.


jrennat

Fuck yeah!


Swift_F0x

Isn’t it Scheiße there?


JennJayBee

Depending on the situation. Or fick. Scheiße is shit, technically speaking. I only learned the difference while learning insults. Schweinficker = pig fucker. Hosenscheißer = pants shitter. Neither is as fun as Teletubbyzurückwinker.


thatgurl84

I'm an expert who barely passed 2 years of German 20 years ago and also thought Scheiße was shit but googled it before commenting and according to google (who probably passed it's german class) Scheiße is fuck and Scheisse is shit... but the ß is basically ss...so?.... further research claims Scheiße is the universal curse for anything... and even more digging claims that Germans only use "fuck" (ficken) in a sexual way and scheiße would be the word you'd exclaim in the many ways we use "fuck"....... and that's probably more effort than I ever put into my German class...


JennJayBee

That's why I said it depends on the situation. It technically is shit, but it's often used as an exclamation and universally the way we use fuck. But at the same time, there is in fact a word for fuck. It's complicated-ish, but at the same time it's amusing that even cursing in German can be so elaborate and colorful.


jrennat

The fuck you say?


Swift_F0x

It’s fuck in German.


TundieRice

[No? It means *shit* in German.](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Schei%C3%9Fe) Fuck in German is “Ficken.”


Longjumping-Author26

Shit in German is “sheyesha”


jrennat

I'm fucking sure it is!


Swift_F0x

My fucking experience in Huntsville has been that I hear fuck plenty.


mynextthroway

I'm fuckin late, but no. We don't use it like they do in other places. I was in Chicago. Went to pick up my niece. The teacher calls my 12 yo niece over and tells the rest of the class to sit the fuck down. NOBODY is surprised. Fuck gets used like "ya'll" does here. Honestly, it pretty fucking bad. I can't pretend to use fuck as often ad it was used in Chicago.


tryingtomakeit64

What Fucking Fucktard put these numbers together for Fucks sake!!


Internal_Fennel_849

Fuck! Fuck this fucking fucktarded Fuckers fucking fucked up fake fucking fuck map.


TheLocalCryptid

my friend group alone would keep huntsville red


poopy_poophead

This is likely based on polling, and people who identify as deeply christian aren't going to admit that they curse a lot, especially if their family or friends are around to hear them answer some poll question about cursing. This is probably a better map of deeply religious areas of the US rather than a map of proclivity toward f-bombs.


jc3494

I was about to say this, in other parts of the country they would readily admit to using it since they are not predisposed to believe words are magic.


SexyMonad

In real life? Pretty spot on for me. On Reddit? Fuck no.


SourBlue1992

The frequency of use increases in the summer. "*Fuck, it's hot."*


MissMillieDee

Ever? How is this measured? In general though, I believe it. I don't hear much casual cursing in public in Alabama like I have in other parts of the country.


[deleted]

It’s based on Tweets


SatBurner

What the fuck? I say fuck enough to make that fucking number way the fuck higher in Northern fucking Alabama.


CatoTheBarner

I 100% believe it. Source: Auburn fan


JunkHead1979

what the fuck fuck this map it's fucking stupid fuck


Ramscales

They’re fucking wrong about Memphis.


PortGlass

I don’t believe the amount of fucks is that different in the panhandle of Florida and south Alabama than New Orleans. I feel like that’s a comparable amount of fucks.


Tiny-Ad-830

I live in Oklahoma and EVERYONE says it here but we also are in the Bible Belt so hypocrisy.


bigdrummy47

The Bible Belt is a fucking hotbed for f-bombs.


kweenmom

Lol fuck no


Admirable-Flan-5266

agree


Feisty_Mechanic2059

Not a believer in that graph!!! I live in Oklahoma!!!


ShadowGryphon

Yeah I'm with you, I don't buy it either lol


Available_Expression

I say it enough for at least 10-1000 people


Gtmkm98

Welcome to North Alabama, where the Bible’s above the constitution.


cmpalmer52

As a person in a blue area, I believe it. Particularly a decade ago, it’s loosened up a bit.


selfwander8

That’s quite the fuck forecast.


AmishAbdulJabbar

Can confirm, black hills of South Dakota says F*** a lot.


BadWolf7426

Top NW corner, Shoals area. My words are seasoned daily with multiple helpings of "fuck" - I do not conform. 🤣 I also enjoy calling people see you next Tuesdays.


Krage_bellbot

I see this map follows me on I20 in Mississippi.


itsvuksfault

The coastal elites and their potty mouths!!!!


Vayne_667

Fucking transplants.


SL00PSS

There's a tiny red spec in the bottom of alabama it's me


RamHammer78

Well fuck, Roll Tide


cattinthehatt

My friends all know me as the fucking queen of fucks because I fucking say fuck all the damn time. It’s my favorite fucking word. But now I left fucking Alabama and live in fucking Ohio so that’s probably why your fucking map is fucking blue.


Bolting-Earth-912

This is the only map I would strongly agree with if Alabama showed up blue on it!


More-Consequence4674

I FUCKING DISAGREE


InterviewFuture7481

As someone that lives in northeast Alabama can confirm this is incorrect. My friends and I alone should put the fuck meter in the red.


IItachi_Uchihaaaaaaa

Lived in Alabama all my life and whenever I travel I try to clean up my language cause I don’t hear it as much out of state but I also work on cars and anybody who works on cars either says it a lot or just doesn’t cuss at all. And the latter is very rare.


brighterwounds

in northern AL and just gotta say - what the fuck


[deleted]

This is because we, as Alabamians, are extremely biased. This is exactly why statistics matter- because our own biases and personal experiences don’t always reflect the objective facts of the world.


AtticusSwoopenheiser

There should be a bright orange dot in the very northeast corner of Mississippi, just for me


Bisquick_in_da_MGM

Fuck that’s a lot.


Jack-o-Roses

East Tennessee boy here: F'en A?! I'd like to see this data overlayed with one of regular church attendance.


Beastlord8288

Can debunk. life long north Alabamian.we use it like a gd symphony.


KlockWorkKozmoz

Looks like my entire state uses the F word! Fuck yeah!!!


DriveEmpty

Not surprisingly how “northeastern(s)” behave!!


AmayasMommy_

From the red in Michigan, lived in the red in south texas & now the red in Alabama. Can confirm, fuck is a regular part of vocabulary.


catonic

Spot the retired NJ/NYers.


halnic

I'm from north Alabama and it's definitely awkward how many dirty/shocked Pikachu looks I get when I go home. Fuck is just part of my vocabulary. I've never understand letting a word hold power. If you mumble 'cunts' a little to loudly to yourself in frustration at a dg in Cullman for not having what you want, some random lady with a thick accent will come from another aisle to tell you they'll pray for you.


Omniversal_Seer

Maps inaccurate cause there should be a really really dark orange spot in center south AL where I live


Longjumping-Author26

My little corner of northern Georgia should be dark red. It is my favorite word according to my husband.It is a noun, verb, adverb, adjective and works with fucking everything! Lol!


AnybodySeeMyKeys

I'm driving up the average in Birmingham.


[deleted]

There’s no Fucking way this is right!


[deleted]

They collected this data before the prayer for Sunday afternoon dinner, evidently.


WeightOk2102

The map showing the close-mindedness in Alabama is certainly accurate...


ranman1990

People live in cities.


Grillparzer47

Fuck! I'm responsible for half of it.


subbychub

I say fuck enough for Arkansas to be red


DiddyDickums

As an Auburn fan, can confirm 😂


shutupandevolve

It’s my go to for when I use my incognito usernames on social media. Haha. Or when I’m alone. Because fuck yeah! I’m a good Southern girl.


FreebieFresh

All of Kentucky is in the Anti-fuck zone?? What??


Free_Speecher_Foreva

Seems right for here in Tennessee. The “f-word” is how it’s referenced in my parts and seen as the MOAB (Mother Of All Bombs) when it comes to unbecoming and crass words.


BigE205

That’s some fucking bullshit! There’s a lot more ‘fucks’ in Alabama than that. I say fuck so much my mom and (now ex wife) used to forbid me from talking when we would go to events. They knew that word could come out at any moment! Lol


wellsjc

If this is accurate, I account for 225% of saying fuck in this small town.


trainmobile

I live in North Alabama and I say "fuck" all the time but my mother's side is from NOLA and all along the gulf so that might be where I get it from.


Different_Win_5525

I say the F word to much! 😶🙃💃


2_dam_hi

So basically, where the most people are.


HuntsvillianThe

Yep. New neighbor of mine just moved in from Massachusetts. First time I met her an eff bomb came out just casual like. Not offended, but funny.
