Which 'Effin Nation Swear The Most?

According to a British Board of Film Classification survey, we are swearing more these days and the first thing we should ask is what the f*** has it got to do with them and then no s*** we are swearing more, what you expect after the year we just had!
Personally it isn't very often that i pull out the big guns of swearing, preferring to stick to their softer and more acceptable cousins although i do find a well timed 'bad' swearword to be very effective and in some circumstances, and from certain people, it's very funny.
There are some people who manage to cram in more swearwords than regular words into their sentences which isn't very pleasing to the ear but maybe they are constantly in pain, like having a Cliff Richards earworm because that has to be painful. I'd be swearing like a Sailor also if i got him warbling 'Celebration' in my brain on a loop.
Researchers at Wordtips scrolled through 1.7 tweets and created a list of the Countries swear the most and it’s probably no #*$@ing surprise who came out on top, those 'effin yanks who cussed in 41.6 out of every 1000 tweets but us Brits were second with 28.6 out of 1000 then Australia (26.6), New Zealand (25.2), and Canada (24.6) filled out the rest of the top five.
The analysis found that the country swore the least is Kuwait with just 3.6 tweets in every 1000 containing a swear word so we should be more Kuwaiti and stop dropping the F-Bomb so much but it is hard to go from a proper potty mouth to nothing so i suggest one of the halfway swear words, kinda like a F-hand grenade.
The choices are between fecking, freaking, fricking or fugging so you could email the people at Wordtips and say: 'You fricking researchers don't have a frecking clue what you're talking about, dozy feckers' and you would be taking the first steps to being acceptable in pleasant company and who wouldn't feckin love that.
