Everyone has different measures for determining in which circumstances swearing would be inappropriate. Some might feel that swearing is always uncalled for and inappropriate. Others may feel that swearing liberally is every human being’s God given right. It all depends on perspective. So we threw it up for a vote and asked our readers to tell us which movie scenes include swearing that is either inappropriate, uncalled for or in any other way wholly over the top.

1) Terrance and Philip's Movie Song, South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut (34%) – Considering that the whole point of the entire movie is centered on the fact that Terrance and Phillip’s R-Rated movie (Asses of Fire) is so vulgar and filled with profanity that it leads to a war between Canada and the US that helps Saddam Hussein and Satan attempt to claim control of the Earth, it’s kind of odd that “Uncle F***er” would be chosen as most gratuitous. Then again, with lyrics like “You don’t eat or sleep or mow the lawn you just f*** your uncle all day long” and “you’re an uncle f***er I must say, well you f***ed your uncle yesterday” it’s hard to argue that by sheer volume, Terrance and Phillip swear more than all our other nominees combined.

2) Randall Ordering Porn Videos, Clerks (20.4%) – Here are the two video titles we can actually print here: “Men Alone II: The KY Connection” and “My Pipes Need Cleaning”. Both of which sound way more entertaining than “Happy Scrappy Hero Pup.”

3) Baby Jay and Baby Bob swearing, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (9.9%) – Who’d have guessed that opening a movie with a baby dropping the “f” bomb wouldn’t be a blockbuster hit of Titanic proportion?

4) Data Says A Bad Word As the Ship Crashes, Star Trek: Generations (8.6%)

Final Tally
1. Terrance and Philip's Movie Song, South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut (34%)
2. Randall Ordering Porn Videos, Clerks (20.4%)
3. Baby Jay and Baby Bob swearing, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (9.9%)
4. Data Says A Bad Word As the Ship Crashes, Star Trek: Generations (8.6%)
Dead Last: F-Bomb, The Canteen Scene in Alien 3 (1.2%)
