I try and avoid stereotyping people, but I have to say that from my observations, people in the 15-25 age bracket that can actually string a 'proper' sentence together without even one of these cunt-words in it are becoming uncommon.

I know it's not totally restricted to that age-group, but it seems to be where it's most common. I reckon the mobile phone is to blame! People are trying to cram as much as possible into the 160 characters that they get for 10 pence and it just leads to them talking/typing like that all the time.

So, perhaps it's because they are 'tight-wads'??
