DO YOU SWEAR a lot? You probably swear a lot.

Well now, thanks to a new app called ‘Social Santa’, you can find out exactly how much you do swear.

The analysis tool allows Tweeters the world over to find out how much filth their perpetuating in the online sphere – and duly informs them how Santa is likely to react to the news.

The website has compiled a naughty list – of Twitter’s most prolific swearers, and a nice list – of those most conscientious about avoiding foul language online.
