^ What a bunch of bullshit...
It's not just bullshit, it's fucking bullshit.

I'll curse if I'm laughing, surprised, energetic, calm, etc. It's not limited to negativity.
It's really just a modifier of quantitative statements, ie:
"Dude, I'm really fuckin' happy today!"
"Dude, I just bought a shit-ton of cool shit from the store!"
"These Blazin Buffalo Doritos are damn good!"
...Alright, now I'm just having fun. See what I mean? Totally positive.
I've heard that when people curse genuinely (like dropping a bowling ball on their toes) they always go back to their native language/dialect. Is this true?
Does cursing serve a specific psychological purpose? Does it do any good to suppress cursing? Does cursing too much defeat this purpose?

I've never used a single fucking curse word in my entire fucking life. People who curse are shitheads. What a bunch of assholes!

There's nothing wrong with cursing, dolphin dick.
It's not cursing that's the problem, gorilla cunt. Motherfuckers who throw that shit around lightly have no goddamn manners whatsoever, that's all.
I think Steven Pinker wrote extensively about cursing in his latest book on language, but I haven't read it yet.

Cursing is a verbal form of aggression. When we're stressed we can relieve some of that stress by cursing. It's probably more constructive to curse than to hit something.
Yep, me too.On topic: If I'm in the company of friends that I know don't take offense to cursing, I'll curse if I'm laughing, surprised, energetic, calm, etc. It's not limited to negativity.
