So?
Biscuits can to, what’s your point?
Everyone knows you’re replacing a word for another anyways, so you seriously think that makes it somehow better? That you’re lying to yourself and everyone else know anyways? Just use the words instead of trying to be cute. The only thing it does to anyone else other than the others like you, is make you look like a puritanical follower.
I wasn’t part of, and neither were you when they decided that some words are okay to speak and not others. That’s the part that’s the issue here.
You’re not being cute, you’re not being funny, you’re only perpetuating that others control you. The issue has and should always be the context they are used in. You don’t get to decide what’s an okay word to say and not. And substituting words just shows that you want to swear, but you follow societal standards, and everyone sees that instead.
