Jyoti, I am not sure how the word Ni**er came into that list. It is more associated with the Gangsta  Rap Culture in the US. The word chink or Chinky refers to the people from the North-east and the entire South-east asia. and Generally used By people  , not in a derogatory manner, but the Err, chinks, might feel otherwise.

S...t is very common as is F...k, But I would say, F...k is more used as it can be used in a variety of situations (as proven by  by Hyderabadi's Link). B..h is not used that much as Many guys are basically 'Momma's Boys' and respect Women, but exceptions are always there.

But as Jyotida has pointed out, None of it is used in front of Parents.
Discover all that you are not -- body, feelings thoughts, time, space, this or that -- nothing, concrete or abstract, which you perceive can be you. The very act of perceiving shows that you are not what you perceive." -Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj
