With all the effin’ and blindin’ going on at the Edinburgh Fringe this year, it seems right to figure the f*ck out who really is the sweariest of them all.
So we’ve taken some of the top comics on EdTwinge, and with some help from the clever folks over at Cursebird, compiled a Top 13 list, from the cleanest to to the pottiest-mouthed. Scores are calculated by tracking the recent usage of profanities on Twitter, including f*ck, sh*t, b’stard, b*tch, c*nt, d*ck, tw*t, c*ck and b*llocks.
No 13. Tim Key
In spite of naming his show the mothercussing Slutcracker, Tim’s a bit a lame in the curse department. Swears like a primary school teacher. 21/100

They may Australia’s most tolerated musical comedy trio, but they swear like kids TV presenters. 41/100
