As with any research on Twitter , the results come with caveats—like the sample not being completely random and certain attributes for users being unknown. That said, here are 10 takeaways from the study led by PhD researcher Wenbo Wang, with results drawn from some 14 million users:.
This should come as little surprise given studies showing that people use 10, racial slurs per day on Twitter and widgets showing the many places in the world where people are dropping f-bombs on Twitter right this very moment. Bless you and your soothing ways, sandwiches. There can be something damnably oppressive about the work week being just on the other side of bedtime.
The researchers determined where people curse the most by meshing Foursquare data with the latitudes and longitudes on tweets to which users added a location.

The most popular curse word is fuck, which covers The findings are interesting for anyone who uses Twitter, but for the team, all affiliated with Ohio Center of Excellence in Knowledge-enabled Computing , the paper will fold into work with broader societal implications related to mental health, verbal abuse, online harassment, and gender differences in online communications.
Creating filters for kids on social media is also another potential application. Of course, timing and context is everything, and not all cursing is negative. Other insights in the paper involved timing, location, gender, and level of influence of the NSFW tweeters. People curse more and more as the day passes, reaching a peak at 12 a.
