    Never swearing is as weird as swearing constantly. They’re words, they have meaning and context.

    A number of women I know would rather use any word besides “moist”, it’s quite funny.

        I’ll try dropping it at Thanksgiving dinner, I’m giving even odds that I get asked to leave, especially if combined with moist.

      I have random stupid hangups and for who knows why profanity is one of them. I’m fine with it. I barely notice when others use it. But I just can’t. It doesn’t sound right in my context or in my voice.

      Of course I hate my own voice with a fiery passion, but that’s another hangup.
