The word “cr@p” seems to have entered the mainstream. I think I even heard it on a commercial the other day. Glenn Beck uses it a lot.
It just doesn’t seem to be a “swear” word anymore.

I remember seeing a MASH episode with “You Son of a B@tch”, that was pretty shocking back then.

...that’s what it’s all about, lowering the bar. Cr%p, Hell, Damn, J.C. all seem to be acceptible now. My Mother would’ve “knocked me into next week” for using ANY of those words.
