I'm not offended by the word, or by swearing, BUT -

IMO, if you refer to your personal property as "sh*t" that implies to me that you don't value your property very highly. And if your own property means as little to you as a pile of feces, then I certainly don't want you handling anything of mine.

I worked hard for my "stuff," it's important to me, and I don't want you treating it like sh*t.

I agree. That word is a term of disrespect and shows a lack of concern for others or for yourself.

Same here

"Stuff" and "thing" are filler words used when you draw a blank memory wise. I hate when I use filler words because I feel as though I'm losing my mind.
