To me, this JonTron guy used the word effectively. He expressed it once, his audience told him he was rude, he then went and expressed the word again.

Looks like he was using that word to demonstrate that he wanted to be perceived as an asshole. Mission accomplished JonTron.

Awesome dialogue on swearing. Reminds me of George Carlin's "7 Dirty Words".
