We have no reason to doubt this. Excellent news from the world of social science! A new fucking study by researchers from the Universities of Hong Kong, Stanford, Cambridge and Maastricht appears to have found a goddamned link between swearing and honesty, we shit you not. The paper, titled, "Frankly, we do give a damn: The relationship between profanity and honesty," claims that people tend to swear more as a means of self-expression than as a way to be shitty to other people, and asserts (haha! "ASS HURTS!") a connection between the amount a person swears and their personal honesty. As with any research, you're going to want to be a little skeptical about these gerbil-dicks and wait for the sumbitch to be replicated before you take it as fucking gospel, you know?
