What? Like, "How to Win Friends and May Locusts Devour Your Genitalia"?

I don't like the fad of normalizing swear words period.
When I swear, it's for a damn good reason.

The thing that annoys me the most about this is if they were indeed so truly badass they wouldn’t censor themselves with asterisks.

I've seen several of these titles at the local big-box bookstore. Looks like a pathetically childish attempt to come across as edgy and hip to the newest generation of self-help book buyers. Open one and it's generally just the same tired advice, now with extra added potty mouth and 'badass' attitude. They must be selling though, since publishers aren't about to shy away from any trend that makes money, no matter how dumb and crass.

The one about telling your baby to go the f—k to sleep made my blood run cold. I actually saw a copy of it. Extremely disturbing.
