Guilty Pleasures, part 2
It's been a while since we last asked this question and CaptainFellatioNelson's confession that he likes "to fart under the duvet, creep in and see how long I can last only on the fart air contained within" reminded us just how good it was last time.

The whole point of the word is that it occupies a category to itself at the extreme end of the language. It works only if its currency is rare. Over-using it would be like using a nuclear bomb for every fight - thus making all other weapons (words) obsolete. Naturally, adolescents find it amusing to the word because it's 'rude', but if you're an adult and you want to use the worst insult you can think of, what do you choose if you use 'cunt' as often as you use any other word? You've reduced all of your vocabulary to the same level.
