glow stick fun!

well this is a really stupid question, and I mean stupid! i need to know if any one here considers the word "piss" to be a swear word.

why do I ask, well many know when a newbie comes in I hand in a glow stick that was pissed on, well this other forum say that im "rude, and stop swearing" so I stopped saying the word piss and turned it into pizz, and they still say im swearing .
its just reallly stupid but it would help if I could have your thoughts on the word "piss"

thank you.

again this is no joke.

I doubt it would be less offensive if you said "Pip pip, old chap, rejoice in this glowing stick that I urinated upon!"

I think it's less the word, and more the act that they find offensive. *shrug*

Me, on the otherhand, I say "Piss away, my good man!"

I don't, but the rest of my family does, which puts me in quite a difficult position.

I'm in the same position as Sarnath, in my family Piss is swearing, but I use God Damn nearly everyday, who considers that to be swearing? (the same with crap, my parents don't like me saying it.) It's depends where you live

My mom's a devoted christian, so she she hates it if I swear. My dad hates it if I say the F word directly at him.

Those people suck! Pull a pweddy, and then find a different MGS forum.

Hell no!!! Ok who did it?? Who's the 1?
I think that it is not because if a teacher hears you say it nothing happens. If you say the F word, you get a detention. And if you say it again, you get a day in RA.

Well, according to the forum, it's not. Not even censored out! I also noticed trhe pther night, when watching Jay Leno.. he had a guest that was cussing left and right. But then when they said "pissing" that wasn't beeped out.

I also understand, than in Great Britain, it can mean getting drunk in one context, or just being really mad in another.
i.e. "Boy, I am pissed..." aka "Boy, I am drunk..."
or "Gah.. I'm so pissed off!"

Or that it means griping and other wise being in a sour mood.
i.e. "piss and moan"

But here in America, it tends to be used more as cursing. Go figyah!
