My wife once told me she can tell the difference between my yelling of eff between mad and hurt when working in the garage. Lol.

I don't unless the situation really really calls for it. Way back in the dark ages, my teachers taught me that cursing reveals a lack of imagination. I guess the lesson stuck.

Highly contextual... around kids or in someone's home I really watch myself and don't even take the Lord's name in vain. But in situations where I'm with adult friends or at work the gloves come off.

All of us that worked construction careers cussed. It was the culture. The F bomb was almost in
every sentence. Somehow, someway when we came home after work with our wife and kids, we
lost the cussing.
Today, retired, I don't need to cuss and I still slip up. It has no value anymore.
Back in the day, it was just as necessary as your torque wrench.
No more and I feel a lot better not having the F bomb to get a point across.

No, not in conversation. Not when angered. Not when others do it around me.

I've always thought if I need expletives to get my point across and can't communicate any better than that, then why should I bother speaking at all. The language we read and the words we use directly affects the quality of life we live.

Language is the true way of distinguishing our selves from the gutter rats, Yankees, and malcontents.
Command of proper English is a laudible goal, I try.

They say the five people you spend the most time with will have an effect on who you are, and that includes language. I think today that would include the books we read and the film's we choose to watch.

Not all the time, but when I get frustrated or tired, I might say a few words.

I was probably 17 the first time I heard an adult say the f word(yes I lived a sheltered life). My dad was a D,S,H or SOB kind of guy, but not in front of a lady

Me on the other hand use it far to often. I thought I was getting away with it because my son is deaf, but guess who can hear that word from the next room.

Christchurch girl. But unless you live in Sydney the accents sound fairly similar. Especially amongst two year olds.
