British teen shows and obsession with lewd remarks?


The ton of totally bizarre lewd comments is feeling very weird. Is this how English teens talk to each other?
It feels so weird.

They're not teenagers.

Not only that but what's considered lewd in Britain is far different than what's considered lewd in America. For instance, they don't think twice about words like shiht or fuhck. But words like bloody, shag and knickers are considered crude, whereas here those words really don't have much social impact...

I don't know if you're aware of this but I've already changed things. I killed Ben Linus.

Nope! I probably use those about 20x a day!!

We definitely swear more as part of normal speech than people do in America. I've even noticed that if I'm in a meeting room at work with my team, we'll swear a lot, but the minute we are on conference calls with Canada, India or Hong Kong we dial it back down.
