Absolutely not. "Pissed" actually has several different meanings. I learned this the first time I went to London. Over there when they say "I was pissed out of me mind" it simply means drunk. Theres nothing wrong with that word. Only uptight anal retentives would get in a twist over it.

In the U.K. the word 'pissed' is used to refer to having been intoxicated.
In the U.S. the word refers to being very angry.

In either case, the term is not considered profanity. However, if you would like to show a bit of class, use another term. You won't win any brownie points using 'pissed off'.

It's close enough to to profanity to warrant avoiding the term. If not profane, it is vulgar.

In business - profanity, vulgarity and slang are considered signs of crude behavior and a limited vocabulary. Even if a phrase is not profane but is still vulgar or potentially offensive, it should be avoided.

It's borderline. But my issue is, with over a million words in the English language, why is it that people must always resort to the same 10-15 words and expressions to indicate anger or frustration? Be creative with your choice of words, and have some fun with it. It will save you getting in trouble with the use of profanity, and get you noticed.

Yes, for it is offensive; and sets the tone for an argument. It would be much more communicative to say that something is bothering you about whatever, and that you would like to discuss it.
