Funny Or Die has posted a video showing you how to have your very own party to celebrate today's Windows 7 release. It's strikingly similar, yet importantly different from the video that Microsoft put out a couple of weeks ago.

What is the precise harm of hearing a foul word exactly? And might it be possible that by paying no attention to it you'll become immune to that particular harm?
Or do you really need, as you say, a warning before hearing it, so you can mentally prepare to absorb the effect. If so, I advice not to venture outside your own dwelling because there are no censors there.
Also that particular Dutch loanword describes the most fundamental act of life. It's quite natural and I can't see how anybody could be offended by it. Granted, it's the “foul” word to describe that act, but only because of the people that complain about it.
