I see them as just words. Strings of letters that represent sounds that when put together make a sound that some deem vulgar. Ok, MOST deem vulgar. I don't see it that way. I see them as just ways to emphasize your point. I don't use them obsessively (unless we get on the topic of stupid politics, religion, or some other firestarter topic), but I do use them to get the point across. Those people who walk around however dropping them for everything ("This is fuckin' stupid." "Fuck dis shit." "Piss off fucktard." etc etc etc), whether or not the situation is worth a 'curse' word jacks my jaw, and makes me want to break theirs, since they aren't putting it to good use. Or stick a fork in their throat and scramble their vocal cords... that'd be fun too.

Most important: Charisma

Ever since my Dragon Shaman made the guy shit himself with a high intimidate check and healed astronomical damage in one go, I gained great respect for this 'social' stat. Oh, and it can also make you quite the 'James Bond' if you play it right.

Least Important: Intelligence

Purely metagame there. Dragon Shaman don't have much use for skills, so Int gets shafted. And, some of his skills get redundant. After all, who is going to need skills when I can burn shit outta my way with dragon breath, alchemist fire, oil, and flaming swords? Sneakin's for sissies.

People tend to go overboard when trying to make up for mistakes. We screwed blacks with a cactus with slavery, so now we try to serve them. That cause them to become cocky and abuse that power. Because too many people don't see the fact that most don't give two shits about race, it's screws the honest folk over. I'm glad that... what was it called... that thing where 'minorities' and women are given a leg up in just about everything... it's a blanket statement for EVERY racial/gender bonus... damnit, I can't remember it... Anyway, it was abolished in Michigan. And I'm glad. We discussed it in Government. 2 people supported it. The rest of my class sided with me. It was a very one sided debate.

Affirmative Action! That's what it was! Proposal 06-2. Abolishing that was a huge step toward 'true' equality. It served it's purpose. Now it is best left in the pages of history.
