I grew up in a fundamentalist home, where we said "wet" instead of "pee", and never, ever, ever said the Lord's name in vain.
I honestly believed I would be struck dead immediately!
Then I went to college...
Among the things I learned, were how to "...curse for five minutes straight without repeating myself..." (quote from Dick Starks of the
Kansas City Dawn Patrol )!
I tend to use expletives to emphasize a point. But yeah, you really gotta watch the kids!
Every now and then I'll let one slip at Mom's... I'll be embarrassed and shamed for days! Let the F-word slip at Thanksgiving a year ago at my Mother's when Mr. Hixson said something totally off-the-wall and I was still in denial of his mental condition...
I'll never forget the look on my Mom's face...

My Granny however, could "curse the wall paper off the walls" (quote from Mike Warnke, I think...)
She was my hero!

My argument in my earlier years was "how can the mere oscillation of air molecules be offensive?" but, I know better now!
