      Moreso than idiot though. It’s almost always been considered a swear-word, but if you’re looking for a stricter, smaller set, those go by “cuss-words”.

        I’ve never considered it a swear word. It’s more of a euphomism for “shit”. My criteria for “swear” word is whether it is something a kid can say in school with getting yelled at. I realize this may have changed since I was a kid.
