I've always held the opinion that being offended by swearing is a sign of weakness. If a single syllable can make you angry or uncomfortable(when used in a context not specifically designed to insult you) then the problem is yours alone. Given that a negative feeling towards swearing is a purely conditioned response your energies would be better spent on learning to not be offended than attempt to censor everyone else.
I also find offence at swearing to be somewhat culturally specific. It seems to be much more of a concern in America than it is in other english speaking countries as it appears to be a much more conservative society generally.
Concern over swearing is a rather old fashioned ideal. In these modern times where we are no longer obligated to follow the crazy arbitrary rules of conduct required religion and tradition and are only required to conduct ourselves within the rule of law there is no need to bother with outdated social conventions. Every person has to make their own decisions about their personal conduct so it should not be assumed that everyone shares your own "calibration" of acceptable speech so only the intent of the speaker should be of concern not the particular words used.
So get over it, in 30 years "fuck" and "shit" will be the "hell" and "damn" of their time so why worry about it? Language changes over time, it always has and will so look forward not back.
wow, way off there, it's Ubuntu based so you can run anything that you can run in Ubuntu, just install it via the app store. The "lightweight" refers to the default set of application you get and the theme, if you want more functionality just go into the app store and install it.
There are only 2 things i dislike:
1. It looks too much like OSX, i personally prefer dark themes, so I changed it from elementary theme to elegant gnome
2. Midori, it feels super alphaish, it has potential but there is no way i would have included it as the default browser considering it seems to only be about 80% finished.
