I disagree with all of you :). If used enough you can clearly differentiate between common profanity and being pretty fucking angry. Besides, single profane words are pretty mild these days. In order to get across i'm angry, prefer to say such things like "You punk ass bitch, cock biting cunt!". Pretty strong i say :). Pardon the language. __________________________ I've got love and anger they come as a pair You can take your chances but buyer beware
