Oddly enough, amongst the younger generations, it's more acceptable, although it isn't said in the same way, it's softer, if that's at all possible.

In all seriousness, said in a Cockney accent, drawn out in the way you've written it down, sounds so much better than in other accents, including a Cardiff accent. F uck Off in a north east accent just sounds funny. Fook off man.......

It’s basically used as a greeting between friends in Australia and New Zealand. Think it’s got a similar use in the UK these days.
Me and my pals use it more than other insults. “You silly cnut”, “daft cnut”, etc. That sort of thing.

Re: That Cardiff City fan.
"How was your day"?
- "Oh, don't ask. I've had a c*nt of a day"!
I think this is the only kind of scenario whereby I've used the word.
I wouldn't label a person by using it.
Re: That Cardiff City fan.
Saying Rachel Reeves is a cnut is ok though isn't it?

They're only words...and words are cheap.

Yes, it's a shame because when he's not swearing he's quite good for a nipper.

A related question:
If the word “grit “ became associated with a vicious, vile insult, then would we ever perceive those 4 letters, used in that combination, in the same way ever again?
It’s a bizarre notion really, that a word is given a power merely because people choose to agree that it has that power.
Apologies to all of you who are offended by the word g**t by the way.
