"When used judiciously, swearing can be hilarious, poignant, and uncannily descriptive. More than any other form of language, it recruits our expressive faculties to the fullest: the combinatorial power of syntax; the evocativeness of metaphor; the pleasure of alliteration, meter, and rhyme; and the emotional charge of our attitudes, both thinkable and unthinkable. It engages the full expanse of the brain: left and right, high and low, ancient and modern. Shakespeare, no stranger to earthy language himself, had Caliban speak for the entire human race when he said, "You taught me language, and my profit on't is, I know how to curse."

- Steven Pinker

I don't see any swearing, though. How is this relevant?

For new comers: Before the admins changed the title, the title started with prefix: Holy @#$%&!!. I thought in this case it was worth defending.

well then I'm curious - why did you complain?

Because of cartoon swearing. What are we, in kindergarden?

I still don't understand what was offensive considering no actual expletives were used... I guess nowadays even special ascii characters aren't safe
