It's a nice timer, but this recent casualization of the word 'fuck' is irritating, and I don't care to support it. It was in a ton of the blog headlines posted on this very site last year, and all it does is detract from the power of the word, while doing nothing to add an edge to your project. Sorry.
Nice timer, though. Find a real way to motivate the user without abuse and it'd be even cooler.
Assuming that the other parties are offended by the cursing is the common response to these criticisms. I don't think anyone is saying that they're actually bothered by it, but rather that pointless cursing like this is formulaic, worn-out, and generally lame.
Agreed. If the cursing is the only funny part of the joke, it gets old pretty quickly. In fact, it seems at this point it's the opposite of offensive. I'm mostly just bored.
Why would it be a good thing? It's not like it is such a bad thing that we must make it good at all costs. Some words are there to be used when they are needed.
