What a truly antiquated and uneducated comment. Swearing and profanity are both powerful communication tool. Profanity has the sacred power of smashing psychological barriers when used wisely. Your comment shows a poverty of deeper understanding of the power of language and speaks to the moral and ethical blocks that you yourself are dealing with keeping you from spiritual growth. Scientifically words are sound. Sound is vibration. Vibration is one of the three forces Tesla highlighted alongside frequency and energy. When focused and projected with intention via profanity “attention” is captured. The speaker is clearly “aiming” at grabbing his audiences “attention”. Let’s look at the word “profane” the root of “profanity”. Pro is Latin for “before” Fanum is Latin for “temple” Profanus is Latin for “outside the temple” meaning “not inside the sacred space”. Profane is the old French form of profanus Profane is adopted by the English who assigned it discriminatingly to “heathens” Old English hǣthen, of Germanic origin; related to Dutch heiden and German Heide ; generally regarded as a specifically Christian use of a Germanic adjective meaning ‘inhabiting open country’, from the base of heath. “Heathen” seems to come from the proto-Germanic *khaithiz meaning “hearth.” Some linguists point to the etymological origins of “heathen” in the Old English hæðen and the Old Norse heiðinn. In Hebrew a heathen is a person who does not acknowledge the God of Christianity, Judaism, or Islam; Effectively a pagan. an uncivilized or barbaric person. Originally referring to someone that followed any of the non-christian faiths of Eastern Europe, pagan now generally refers to a person that follows a religion that isn't 'mainstream. Incidentally there is an example where conceptually “heathen” referred to someone that had been a Christian but was either thrown out of the church or they rejected the church… Uncivilised is a derivative of civilised - a very specific Greek ethical and moral concept. Civil, Civility, Civics, Civilisation, civilised, civilian all speak to this deep philosophical historicity - to be “uncivilised” is to behave in ways that are not generally acceptable to state standards of acceptable behaviour set by tradition, culture, lord, law and the institutions of state control and perpetuated by the Greek polis state. Polis is city in Greek. From City we beget the concepts of citizens, citizenship, citizenry which are all identifiers of socially heeled and controlled members of the Polis. From polis we derive the terms politics, political, politicians, policy, polemics, poles, and of course the police force who are the military arm of the Polis State employed by the State to modify social behaviour and to promote acceptable standards of citizenship grounded in “good”, “goodness”, and godliness in terms of the Judaic, Christian, Islamic faiths. Policies of socially acceptable use of language find their way into the layers of social etiquette deemed acceptable and controlled by social norms, moral mores, ethical lores and political laws where extremes of behaviour arise. Barbaric is a racial slur of discrimination. late Middle English (as a noun in the sense ‘a barbarian’): from Old French barbarique, or via Latin from Greek barbarikos, from barbaros meaning anything ‘foreign’ (especially with reference to speech). Barbarian, word derived from the Greek bárbaros, used among the early Greeks to describe all foreigners, including the Romans. The word is probably onomatopoeic in origin, the “bar bar” sound representing the perception by Greeks of languages other than their own. 'Barbarian' is derived from the ancient Greek word 'bárbaros', meaning babbler, and was used to describe people from non-Greek speaking countries such as Persia and Egypt, who, to Greek ears, sounded like they were make unintelligible sounds (ba-ba-ba). The Greeks used the term “barbarian” for all non-Greek-speaking peoples, including the Egyptians, Persians, Medes and Phoenicians, emphasizing their otherness. According to Greek writers, this was because the language they spoke sounded to Greeks like gibberish represented by the sounds "bar-bar”. Barbarian is an insulting word for a person from an uncivilized culture or a person with no manners. ... The barbarian hordes are long gone, but we still use this word as an insult for anyone who's acting rude, uncultured, or particularly savage. And finally the concept of “Savage” - savage (adj.) The year 1300 savage meant, "wild, undomesticated, untamed, uncivilised," (of animals and places), Derived from Old French sauvage, salvage "wild, savage, untamed, strange, pagan," from Late Latin salvaticus, alteration of silvaticus "wild," literally "of the woods," from silva "forest, grove" (see sylvan). Describing an animal as savage means that it is true to its wild, ferocious nature, but if you describe a person or the actions of a person as savage, it came to represent a Christianised view of indigenous native peoples as "cruel" or "brutal." A place can also be described as savage if it's untamed, uninhabitable, and unwelcoming. These misconceptions are derivatives of the social conditioning of religious institutions who had cultivated a monoculture of disconnected peoples out of touch with nature, the wild and the animal kingdom as a result of misconceived hierarchies of the Christian order of life from the godhead down to the lowest forms of life in a taxonomy of subordinate life forms under God, King and Country. The commonly told origin is that it came from the Romans and their gladiatorial games: thumbs up meant live and thumbs down meant die. Although ironically the truth of Roman thumb gestures shows it’s the opposite originally. We don’t have videotapes of people from antiquity. We have some sculptural references but it’s mostly verbal references,” says Anthony Corbeill, a professor of Latin at the University of Virginia, who wrote a book on gestures in ancient Rome. “Sparing a life is achieved by pressing the thumb down to the top of the fist and death is a thumbs-up. In other words, it’s the opposite of what we think.” Historical confusion about that thumb-pressing gesture exposes just how difficult it can be to track the evolution of body language. The Latin term for the gesture of approval, Corbeill explains, is pollices premere, which means “press your thumbs” and has been described by Pliny the Elder as a common gesture of good wishes. But that doesn’t help much. “The verb premere in latin is just as ambiguous as ‘press’ in English,” he says. “A thumb can press or be pressed, it works both ways.” Corbeill located an example of what exactly the gesture might look in Nîmes, in southern France, when he found an appliqué medallion that shows a scene from a gladiatorial battle. A character in the scene has got a fist with his thumb pressing down on it…the origin of the thumbs down gesture. Another reason we know the thumbs-up was the kill signal was a gesture known as the infestus pollex or hostile thumb, which is mentioned in texts but, again, isn’t pictured. In antiquity, says Corbeill, “the thumb was hostile in the same way the middle finger was hostile, and it was a threat, just like it is now.” There’s a poem that describes a crowd gesturing towards a gladiator with an unfriendly or hostile thumb, and then the same phrase is used in other contexts where it clearly means the upturned thumb. So how did the meaning get swapped around? In the intervening years, the thumbs-up gesture was mostly mentioned in reference to the Latin. The thumb turned, extending from the hand, was translated from Latin as a sign of “disapprobation” in a number of instances that the Oxford English Dictionary records. From the 1600s until the early 1900s, that’s the primary dichotomy of thumbs: bent up (death) or down (life). Then, in 1872 the popular and influential painter Jean-Léon Gérôme, well, turned things upside-down a bit. His famous painting “Pollice Verso” depicts a crowded arena looking down on a few gladiators, only one of whom is still standing, foot pressed to the throat of one of his fallen combatants. Almost everyone in the crowd has their arm out, thumb pointed down to the ground. Despite being known for his historical accuracy, Gérôme got the gesture wrong: his title indicates the “turned thumb” but his painting shows the “thumbs down,” which was not actually one of the ancient options. The image was reportedly a source of inspiration when Ridley Scott directed Gladiator. As the American usage of a thumbs-up as “O.K.” expanded in the 20th Century, older negative meanings remained in some areas of the world. But with Internet giants like UA-cam and Facebook using a small thumbs-up for ‘like’ and a thumbs down for ‘dislike,’ the two gestures - thousands of years after thumbs were a matter of life and death - may now have acquired a near-universal meaning. In effect your thumbs down sir is sparing the life of the speaker Marcus or indeed praising him for his oratory. It pays to know … you know. When Shakespeare wrote “To Be or not to be” he could just have easily said “To Behave of not to behave - that is the question.” and he would have been asking a very pertinent question indeed for all times.
I think Aubrey was doing deep breathing while driving and passed out, but is embarrassed to admit it. People just don't black-out randomly especially if they are healthy like Aubrey is. Don't deep-breathe and drive folks.

Thumbs down for the language with which you feel you need to impress people.
