I stumbled upon this article the other day and found it to be very interesting. According to a study conducted Ohio is the top swearing state in the U.S. and the 5th least courteous, meaning when people from Ohio swear at you its because they are ticked off and mean you malice. In contrast Maryland is the number two most swearing state but the third most courteous, so when they swear it is with goodwill toward men.
Example:
Maryland: Have a nice effing day!
Ohio: I hope you have an effing terrible day!
