How about the language we use on the second most “social platform” after real life (!), Facebook?
The guys at Slate Magazine, conducted a keyword analysis using a new Facebook developer tool that estimates the number of user interactions (including public or private status updates, photo captions, and comments) that mention a word or phrase, so as to determine the most popular profanity used.

# Shit with 10.5 million interactions in the U.S
# Fuck at 9.5 million
# Damn at 6.3 million
# Bitch at 4.5 million
# Crap at 2 million
# Fag, pussy, dick, cock and darn (?) marking the biggest gender gap
# Bloody claimed the No. 3 spot in the U.K. and ranked fourth in Australia
# Bugger and bollocks on the U.K. chart, and arsehole replaced asshole
Blushed already?
