I agree, Mary, but limiting its use isn't the key. The key is to pair it with multi-syllabic "vocabulary" words.

i.e. What an sycophantic f--- he is!

F--- goes nicely with "parabola," don't you think.

Most of the time, I hear it with "Bob" and "a-hole."

Always call the place you live a house. When you're old, everyone else will call it a home.
