A Mexican polling firm asked people how many times per day they curse and found that…teenage girls in Mexico City have potty mouths. The New York Times is on the case. (h/t Cecilia)

If the estimates are true, the survey noted that Mexicans use 1.35 billion curse words daily, or 500 billion annually. The study’s authors, who probably sling their fair share of curse words, did not appear alarmed. “We shouldn’t be concerned when we hear such words, and it might be better to stop considering them curses at all,” they said.

The old slippery slope. And keep in mind that this doesn’t even include all the people whose response to the poll was, “How the f— should I know?”
