The MC of the book I just read cusses *all* the time. Now, I don't mind swearies as such, but if your character swears in every other sentence, then you've got nowhere to go when you want to indicate the character is *really* up to high doh. It's called an 'F-bomb' for a reason. Let it off sparingly.
