No need to hold back from dropping the f*ck bomb, because those with a pottied mouth have found to be more intelligent.

Researchers at Marist College and the Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts have found that those who swear a lot tend to have a wider vocabulary and better verbal skills. 

Participants were asked to complete a Controlled Word Association Test, which measures the size of your vocabulary. They were then asked to use as many swear words as they could in a minute. 

What the researchers found was that those who swore more actually tended to know more words in general.

F**king great news!
