I agree, especially in regard to shorter vs. longer obscenities.
Our language has so few long obscenities, that to hear any of
them more than once or twice a minute gets repetitive and boring
all too quickly. 

Some inventiveness is in order here, and there may even be a
place for a government grant to some rap artistes or former
longshoremen to seed the process of inventing some new long
obscenities capable of shocking us.  If a new word rouses our
anger so well that the audience will rise as one and beat the
offending singer to a pulp, we'll know that a measure of success
has been attained, and the taxpayers' R&D dollars will have been
well spent.
