Linguistically, swearing is quite common and has been exorcised in a vastly wide manner of ways. Such methods range in spectrum as blunt, short words or sounds- to intricately long, well-written monologue that does not immediately insult until the recipient fully digests the slur via contemplation of the artfully crafted symbolism used to characterize in the least obtuse way.
If you're just talking about f### and sh##, that's one thing. If you're talking about frack, shazbot, etc- that's another.
All else would be to laborious to wrestle with for everyday layman to content with literary goliaths.
