PS Is there really any reason not to spell the entire word? Isn't it a little precious to substitute asterisks? We all know what I said. I said the actual word. What fiction am I trying to maintain, anyhow? That I am so refined that I never cuss? I try not to - I think it is vulgar - but sometimes, it is the only thing to do.

I prefer the asterisked version... Seeing obscenities spelt out in full makes me uncomfortable and a little sad, to be honest! Go the ****.
