The Black Vault

I tried to see just how long i could go today without thinking a sware word or without saying one...

Now i failed at thinking one,so im working on that...but i was going ok till i was looking for a parking spot at the super market....there was this umm camper truck parked in two places....basically that was my downfall..one of the spots could have been Mine,.,,

What is it that really gets to you....??

I'm guilty of saying a few choice words. Making no excuses, but I worked 40 years in 2 industies where men are men, and very few men don't curse in some form at work. Mechanics, machinists, welders, construction workers, they all have a tough enviorment and tough work. You make a mistake or bang yourself, you get cut or burned everyday, you just say F^%$# and keep on truckin. Maybe its a product of a military hitch, where foul language is mandotory in that culture.(at least in my time) Unfortunatly, bad habits stick, and thats one of them. When you don;t have to watch your P's & Q's (old saying that should change to F's & Damn's) you usually don;t until your Mother is within a ear away. Nowadays, that doesn;t even matter.

I worked with a few men over the years, who never cursed and were from a different generation where even the most tame of curse words were never said in the company of women and children. Thats a standard, nearly extinct.

We seem to have evolved into a society where the F-word to many is as common as it comes, and nobody is spared hearing it.

2 things that get me going is drive in fast foods that can't get your order right but rattle off 5 things to try selling you. and people laying on horns when traffic can't possibly move.

I started swearing as soon as I read this thread and realized that I just wasted 2 mins of mine time on it.

Shadow...thats 2 minutes you will never get back...

I swear way too much, especially for a female.(Mom calls me a "trucker mouth"..not proud of it, but I am what I am)
Just get me in traffic and the swearing will start at some point.
Recently my H was driving with my son, some guy cut him off in traffic and he lost it a bit, at this point my son turned to him and says something like, "daddy yells in the car too..just like mommy"
H got great joy in relating this story to me
A proud moment for me, let me tell yah
