the intention is there either way
I don't necessarily disagree, I just think it's pretty funny that you used "AF" as a replacement for saying "as fuck". >

I do that all the time…lmao! >

Acronyms save time >

Can’t get sent to hr or fired for saying fake curse words. >

I agree, but have to respond with a related unpopular opinion: people shouldn’t refer to naughty words as cuss words…they are curse words.  Calling them cuss words comes off like you are writing with a thick southern accent. >

I've yet to hear an explanation as to why curse words are bad that doesn't sound like a version of "Because I said so." >

Yep. Ultimately anti-swearing sentiment is just a product of toxic respectability politics. >

Depends on how you are replacing them. Penn & Teller did a great episode of Bullshit on this topic. 
As for me, if you are going to try and hide it at least make it hard to know what you said. Things like sh*t just annoys me. >

Oh I agree. Either learn not to swear/use the exclamations. Or just say the word. Replacing fuck with fetch is particularly bad. But My least favorite is people replacing asshole with butthole. Asshole makes me think of a rude person. Butthole makes me think of an anus. >

Ye but I cuss with my friends and I never swear around family or people from our church that know my parents
