That's not science. That's just how certain people react.

Ok, so you've never used a hammer...

No. I swore a couple of times when I was probably about 5 when I was mad at my brother. I got my mouth washed out with soap and I have never sworn again. Not even once. I just don't see a need for it.
I guess it's hard for some of you to realize there are more civilized people than yourselves.

I was gonna reply "ok boomer" and leave it at that, but that would've proved your point.

It's a reference to baby boomers. I take it you've been blissfully unaware of the meme...?

dandy72 wrote: It's a reference to baby boomers Oh. And no, I'm much younger than a baby boomer.

I've been called a boomer, even though I'm nowhere near the age range.

Au contraire, as our French friends say. Cursing and swearing are simply alternate choices of expression for added emphasis, based on those expressions' connotations.
As with all forms of human expression, you must consider your audience. For some groups, dropping a mild 'damn' into conversation might be quite daring. With certain s, the bomb is more punctuation than anything else.

It's either an adjective or a possessive: your choice.

This is a formal setting, so avoid ambiguity: "for the sake of f***".
Or, if you really want to sound like a posh twat: "nam vulpes eruit".

Hmm. I've always thought it was "For f***'s sake", as if f*** was a possessive proper noun.
But then, I'm a neo-briar from Ohio, so what do I know.

Since this is a serious, professional enquiry, I shall answer it seriously and professionally.
It's the genitive case equivalent of "For the sake of f***", so it's "For f***'s sake".
