How is F*CK even pronounced?
Will it still work if I yell Fuck instead?
Any vowel is permitted - so fack, feck, fick, fock, fuck and controversially fyck are all valid.
[Edit] International readers should feel free to say fåck, fæck, féck, fîck, fõck, fœck, fück etc
Maybe it's just RegEx. 0 or more "F"s allowed. e.g. CK, FCK, FFCK, ...
+1 shitty superpower ideas
I should really start writing them down at this point.
I wonder if it's really the swearing. It would be interesting to compare to nonverbal grunting or groaning around the same intensity. Something similarly emotive and forceful but without the underlying language meaning.
The root is heightened aggression/anger levels i would guess. Same thing with boxers and power lifters slapping the shit out of themselves before a fight/competition. Anything that gets your blood pumping and adrenaline levels up.
I would hope the 'neutral word' was said at the same volume/rate/tone. Otherwise, yeah, it would definitely be a factor. Just like we can make ourselves angry with our thoughts, there must be a large difference in adrenaline released depending on how you emote.
Made me think of tennis players. The sounds may really increase their power.
"FUUUCK!"
$java -jar app.jar
This is like a special moveset of self-buffs for a brawny no-magic character in a JRPG
This is literally chaos magic
I remember a Mythbusters episode where they proved that cursing also helps alleviate pain.
Imagine the jar you can't open is the swear jar and you yell out FUCK and put a dollar through the slot and try to open it and then yell FUUUUUUCK and then put in another dollar...
The payoff will be HUGE, especially as you keep adding 10% grip strength with every swear.
Assuming an initial grip strength of 100kg[0]:
- After 10 swears, you've more than doubled your initial strength (100 * (1.1^10) kg = 260kg)
- After 20 swears, you're gripping a grand piano
- After 50 swears, you're gripping a fully grown adult African elephant
- After 100 swears, you're gripping the Statue of Liberty
- After 500 swears, you're gripping the planet Mercury
So it boosts STR, does it also boost INT? Maybe it debuffs WIS?
Sport climber here. "Power Screaming" is a well- known technique to boost power during individual hard moves. Adam Ondra is famous for his strategic screaming, see his ascent of Silence. I regularly use it myself to increase core and grip strength.
Also exhale just as you do it. 👍 Learned that the other day from that maths professor whose name escapes me just now. Redhead, adorable, red nails always. YouTube, Instagram, she's on all of it.
Swears are MMORPG buffing spells. Let them all rip simultaneously for burst and maximize jar DPS.
And to think, this whole time I was using the rubber band trick like a sucker.
So swearing is the natural human booster and it is scientifically demonstrated?
Fuck yea! ^+ 8 grip strength^
I have a goddammned motherfucking super power, bitch! ^degreelessnes mode on^
