    lol that wasn't the word. He tried to say "sh*t" but it came out as "sit" and I knew he was trying to cuss because he wasn't sitting down and kept saying it over and over. I just ignored him and he stopped.

    In places where children might hear, I refrain from using words that would be too dirty for them. Words that are generally acceptable like Darn, Damn (used as an emphatic), Crap, and Puke that were banned or seriously frowned on in the Tower, I did not use then but I use now.

    On forums where swearing is permitted, I use swear words as an accent. Usually, I prefer using those words to emphasize how bad something is, rather than to make the post dirty. MySpace, for instance, has rules that "excessive swearing" is not allowed, implying that the occasional well-placed swear word is OK. One place I never use these words in, however, is in posts that I intend for professional lawmakers and lawkeepers to read. Those posts are more semi-formal, and I believe that someone who is in a position to nail the Watchtower Society is more likely to take it seriously with no foul language, misspellings, or grammar errors whatsoever in those posts.

    Some folks can't help but swear. They don't even know they're doing it!

    When I'm really, really angry. Or if it sounds funny, damnit.

    I've often dealt with cops in my business and I was always amazed at how they could easily switch from using pretty vile language to being perfect gentlemen.They were the best!

    I remember once when an extremely rigid fundamental Christian woman took me to task for something - don't remember what. Just remember her face when I said, well jesus fucking christ, is that so? Hmmmmmmmmm.

    When someone swears quite often, I dunno; it makes them sound educated.
