This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

That bunch of wankpuffins wouldn't know proper swearing if it bit them in the bell end. It's all just motherfucker this and asshole that. The scrote septics have no artistry to their swearing.
You ever sit down at home, after a long day of getting shit done and being responsible with work or family, and want to jump into 2 hours of something else entirely new? Or do you do like so many of us and scroll through a streaming catalogue and aspirationally look at the new shows and movies, finding lots of things to watch but nothing that strikes you as being the right thing to watch? Do you ever settle for something good that you know and promise yourself that you will watch something new later? That's why sequels do so well.
People are tired and just want to see something comfortable that they know. Lay off sequels. Fix society, make us all not tired, and you will see more new shit.
Wankpuffin is actually a specific example (given within the paper) of British vulgarity considered in this study.
My bet is that the rantallion that authored this pile of fetulent drivel only looked for language an American would recognise.
