It’s a portmanteau of shit-fart but now that it’s lost its “it”, is it no longer on the naughty words list? Would the FAA of Ofcom require it to be censored?

    Thought this was a baldurs gate community and wondered why shadowheart would be a swear.

    IMO I’ve always put it under super casual talk that your wouldn’t say to your grandma. But not a swear word or anything offensive.

    Shart is when you sing with heart, no?

    E.g. Yesterday at work, I was in such a good mood, I quietly shearted all day to myself. My coworkers don’t take kindly to it, but they are just jealous of my talent and passion.

    Personally, I’d think not, as long as the word is used to literally identify when someone has a brown skid mark on the rear end of their clothing and/or underwear.

    Now if I used it as an insult and called you or someone else a shart, well yeah I think it would be interpreted as offensive.

    To me, it’s all in the intent of the word. But then again, I don’t give a flying fuck. Hell, I can’t even fly to save my own damn life. Shit.
