It’s the opposite of cool. Cringey as fuck, is what it is.
If you don’t want to use a word, fucking don’t. Use a fucking synonym, for fuck’s sake, or phrase it differently.
But don’t go making your bullshit harder to read just so you can justify to yourself using a word that makes you feel uncomfortable because you’re too damaged to function properly in society. Doing that you’re being the worst kind of hypocrite, because you’re only lying to yourself.
Cool…? Fucking pathetic is the word you’re looking for.
A lot of behaviors are learned and people have learned that using profanity in most places gets you in trouble. I don’t think it’s fair to berate anyone for what is essentially a social expectation in many other circles.
Good thing Lemmy isn’t like that. But, please, lighten the fuck up.
It’s just the opposite social expectation here. And honestly it bothers me not because some people do it but because it feels like american puritanism taking over online spaces because it’s even in screenshots. Like holy shit you’re quoting someone just leave the swearing in.

Most places in the theocratic kleptocracy of Magastan, I assume; a few places (or circumstances) in the civilised world, which in most cases can be avoided due to them being excessively silly.
In any case, though, that’s not the fucking point.
If you don’t want to use a word, don’t fucking use it. Use a fucking synonym, or euphemism, or metaphor, or insinuation, or whatever.
Using most of the word but censoring one of the letters, however, is so utterly stupid and hypocritical that it’s insulting both to the readers and the writer. You’re still using the word, just with an intentional typo. You’re not lying to anyone except yourself.
you can say bullshit.
for fucks sake.
Adults are also allowed to choose not to. It’s cool.

Alternatively, pi_sing off people who call things cringe is based as f_ck so maybe I’ll start self censoring.
You missed it. “Cool” changed. You got old.

No, I don’t think I will.
You seem very upset about this.
An adult choosing to slightly censor a word has you in meltdown mode. Gosh.
Abject wilful idiocy irks me. 🤷♂️
Also, I was in the toilet and had time to type.
I mean, where else would you be using Lemmy?
You can’t say fucks sake it’s bullshit.
