Why does some American gamers say "holy s***" and "Jesus f*** christ" when something happened?

im not american but just curious about your culture are not you leaving from your nation by talking these things are not you?

also "what the f***" is seems like pretty common word. thats also weird imo. i think the gamers that talking these things is just young though.

It is said so much in popular culture it's hardly a bad word/phrase to people here anymore. I agree it should be said less, though.

Because they're not mature and can't find other words to use in their small vocabulary, so they resort to using swears.

That's the American way!

Are you talking about the religious aspect? The US doesn't have an official religion. Pretty sure the majority of gamers don't care about religion, honestly...

Anyway, "swear words" are just forms of expression. They're exclamations... Only "bad" because people have decided that they should be.

It's supposed to represent their frustration. Essentially "what the f***" would represent either why you did something or confused how something happened. I say it when I don't understand how I died before them when I knew I was stronger or when a teammate runs away from a fight at full health when we could have won it. "Jesus f***ing Christ" is more or less them saying like, Lord help me understand the stupidity I am enduring. I'd say most people just say it because, in my silver elo, everybody is diamond and clearly are head and shoulders above their teammates and opposing team in skill.

It was supposed to be like deliberate blasphemy or something, but now it's just how people talk.

well for a streamer they do it for attention, you'll see it in lcs video's and other things that they want the viewer to stay in attention so they use these vulgar words to try and capture a feel to the audiance to make them feel like what they are doing is actually cool but as far as the league community there are some jerks that just make people feel like crap like the jungler taxing your lane or using his double smite to trailblaizer smite your lane anything that would harm team players because they know their stuck with the guy picking his nose :P not putting the effort of the others, blitz with smite roaming around stealing the junglers camps and resetting them xd
