Also, this morning I heard a traffic report that told me I definitely leave in the West:

"And we've got a herd of elk trying to cross I-80 in Parleys Canyon near the Mountain Dell exit. They're wandering from the eastbound to westbound lanes, so use caution."

People swear here in the states, but mostly when real vehemence is called for. Swearing a lot in polite conversation would be considered a low-class thing to do, I think. It's something the people on "Cops" would do, but not a regular middle-class person.

I swear constantly in general, probably more than I should, and call my friends all sorts of horrible things in an affectionate way--jackass, jerk, bitch, ass, etc.--but would never in a million years bust out the c-word unless I meant to be as insulting as possible.

Same here except that my two best friends and I routinely part ways with "See you next Tuesday!" and its response "So long until then!"

My children will swear like stevedores raised by pirates at a truck stop.

There's a lawncare company next to the freeway that has the word SOD in ten foot letters.

Ahahahahaha!!!!

Nothing brightens up a sentence like a well-placed swear word. I tone down my language an incredible amount when I'm on the board.

I'm afraid three seasons of Deadwood have caused my brain to default to the word "cocksucker" far too often. I can usually short circuit things so it doesn't make it from brain to my mouth. Usually.

You know, I cannot hear the word "stevedore" without thinking about Joyce and Giles....

What's a stevedore?
