Question for British DUers:
In the UK, which of the following is considered a more graphic and offensive word, "fuck" or "bugger"???

I'm curious, because I was watching some "Angry Kid" cartoons on atomfilms.com (you MIGHT be familiar with Angry Kid), and they use the word "bugger" a lot, and it seems to be used on par with "fuck". It seems that they use "bugger off" in more mature British shows in the same level as South Park would use "fuck you" here in the US.

It's just a curiosity, thanx.;-)

2. Mmmmm that's a good question
can you believe there are folks in England that still say "well bugger me" but in my opinion Fuck is the more offensive, might be that a lot of people don't really, really realise what "bugger" really means.

Have nice one mate
