Yes, but you are someone who throws around swearwords very 
clearly. Of course you have a high tolerance for crap! :-)

Not everyone is so thick-skinned, though, and it can create a 
better collaborative environment if everyone tries to avoid 
swearwords and pejorative terms (which isn't the same as 
censoring negative opinions -- in my experience, it helps convey 
them more effectively because the recipient has fewer grounds to 
take offence and use that as a reason to dismiss your opinion).
