hetobeto, for that wonderful Christmas card!
Every now and then I remember to check my reviews on the Sugar Quill. Sometimes I get really strange reviews there, like the one I got for Leap where the reviewer told me off for have Ron and Hermione living together before they were married. Anyway, got another strange review for that same story where the reviewer said that Ron must have rubbed off on "Hermy" as she swears in the fic. I had to scratch my head over that one, as far as I remember, Hermione thinks "Blimey!" and calls Ron in an affectionate tone "a bastard" and maybe I don't have enough sensibilities but those barely register as swear words in my mind. They should be glad that they didn't read the other version of Leap where Hermione says "Fuck!" instead of "Blimey!".
Maybe it's the sailor-blood in all Icelanders but I don't know a single person in real life who doesn't swear from time to time and when I lived in England, them Englishmen seemed to have just as colourful vocabulary.
So therefore I decided to make a poll on swearing.
