Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between JFC and FFS?

Both express exasperation. JFC leans towards shock or disbelief at what someone has done, while FFS — for fuck's sake — leans towards impatience with an ongoing annoyance. FFS avoids blasphemy, which matters to some readers.

Is JFC offensive?

Yes, on two counts: it contains a strong obscenity and it takes Christ's name in vain. Among friends online it is unremarkable, but it should be kept out of work messages, public posts and any writing where a religious reader might take it badly.
