    How is F*CK even pronounced?

    Will it still work if I yell Fuck instead?

    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.

    This is like a special moveset of self-buffs for a brawny no-magic character in a JRPG

    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.
