I'm kind of surprised HN doesn't implement censorship of swear words. Also I worked at a company where Fuck was dropped all the time. I'm not sure why people think it's unprofessional.

Heavy profanity can make you sound like you are constantly angry, or it at least imparts some shock value, by design.

It _seemed_ to also be a turnoff when dating (and interviewing?), limiting the field. Not 100% sure.
