Here's a pretty filthy mouth. IMO.
I haven't either. I may be better off not knowing who he is.PS I've never heard of Aaron Torres .
You can call whatever you want. I really don't care.Way to generalize, there. As if everyone who curses just spews them out everywhere they go, regardless of situation, social circle, or awareness. That is NOT the case. It's called a filter. Sometimes it's appropriate, sometimes it isn't. When I'm walking through a parking lot into the grocery store, and someone starts backing out of their parking spot without looking, and almost runs over me...which has happened more than once, I might add, people don't pay attention...you had better believe they're gonna get the more creative aspects of my colorful vocabulary, because they deserve it.
As to the second part of your post, I don't believe that for a second. You may have THOUGHT about it, or WANTED to do that, but you didn't. Regardless of whatever the mean ol' potty mouth said, what you said you did in retaliation is assault and battery. If you did what you claim, and this person didn't physically come into contact with you and yours, or didn't directly threaten severe bodily harm, then you committed a serious crime. So yeah. I call ********.

seems to me, the conservatives need safe spaces from curse words. how ironic.Bad language has the ability to enter safe places and melt snowflakes.

If its just a word, why not all of the time? I'm sure your mom and grandma enjoy a lot of f bombs.
Then why use it at all?F bomb use is like real estate.... It's all about location, location, location.
I use it privately around close friends, co-workers who I know won't be offended, and with humor around my wife. I don't use it in public, at church, in front of my boss, in front of my children, around co-workers who may be offended, or in front of my mom.
I've done my share of cursing when I was younger, but as I grew older I decided not to use profanity because it served no purpose. To me, trying to get use to someone that uses profanity is like trying to get used to someone that wears their pants 6" below their waistline in order to show their underwear.It shocks me in today's day and age of constant information in all forms that people are so easily offended. 30 years ago when it was rare that people were involuntarily exposed to "offensive" things, it would be no surprise that the first time they were exposed to it they would be taken aback.
But today? Sloppy, offensive language is everywhere. Everyone is exposed to it on a daily basis (sometimes hourly depending on their frequency to visit social media or the internet), yet there are still people that seem like this is some new thing to hear the F-bomb or politically-incorrect banter.
I'm not talking about individual use. I'm talking about tolerating hearing or reading it. At some point in today's society, with info flying in from all directions, we just get used to seeing/hearing it, which is why I'm surprised people get sensitive about it.I've done my share of cursing when I was younger, but as I grew older I decided not to use profanity because it served no purpose.

I agree that it's something we are exposed to frequently and shouldn't be shocked when hearing it. If I'm around an individule or small crowd with my woman and too much is being used, I will either commit about it or leave. I don't watch foul mouthed comedians anymore either for that matter.I'm not talking about individual use. I'm talking about tolerating hearing or reading it.

I'm probably with you on those last two things. I'm fine with f-bombs and sprinkling in cussing, as long as it's not absurd and not "sprinkled" properly. Even then, I'm not offended, I just start judging it as plain stupid to use so much to get one's point across. It adds color when used properly, but turns it crap black when it's overdone.I agree that it's something we are exposed to frequently and shouldn't be shocked when hearing it.

Do you want that word used in front of your mother? Or Sister? Or wife? Yes it offends me, I grew up in an environment where that word was not used-unlike today where almost all young folks us it openly and freely. I DO NOT LIKE IT.You're offended by the F word?![]()
I do all the time and none of them collapse into a fetal position. All of them use it as well. My mom has to be pretty upset, but she's blurted it a few times I remember.Do you want that word used in front of your mother? Or Sister? Or wife?

The judgment to know when and where its appropriate has everything to do with maturity level and so does the ability or lack of to express yourself wihtout having to use them so much.Not really. This is your opinion. A word, whether used or not used, has exactly nothing to do with anyone's maturity level. Level of frustration, maybe.
Also, PSA: Saying "dang it", "heck", "poop" or "freaking" is no different than saying "dammit", "hell", "s**t", or the f word.
That is the great mystery of internet message boards. Just read comments on here when people disagree.I agree, it takes a high IQ to be clean and funny. It takes a great deal of intelligence and emotional maturity to be able to argue with someone, without insulting others and using cuss words to express real emotions. I dont have it perfected, most people dont, but it is an admirable goal to strive towards.
But I have to admit, there are some situations where adding certain cuss words just make the comment that much funnier.
Class and manners.I do all the time and none of them collapse into a fetal position. All of them use it as well. My mom has to be pretty upset, but she's blurted it a few times I remember.
It's a four letter word with no offensive history or meaning. You say buck, cuck, duck, guck, huck, juck, kuck, luck, muck, nuck, puck, ruck, suck, tuck, vuck, yuck and zuck. What's so wrong with ****? What makes it a bad word for you? What makes it offensive? Why is it historically offensive? What is the reasoning for not saying it?
How does a letter dictate class and manners?Class and manners.
He does a great podcast The language offends me. Obviously a lot of others Are there people that wouldn’t watch without the language I would guess zero but I know there are many that may stop because of it
Love the podcast just have a hard time with the language
Drop a lot of f bombs in daycares, nursing homes and around your parents eh sailor?How does a letter dictate class and manners?
Yea, not my kids, so why would I care? It's a word. Teach your kid not to melt when he hears it.Drop a lot of f bombs in daycares, nursing homes and around your parents eh sailor?
So exactly what I said, class and manners.Yea, not my kids, so why would I care? It's a word. Teach your kid not to melt when he hears it.
People in nursing homes are already on their deathbeds. I think they got bigger problems than the F bomb. Hell, most of couldn't hear you anyway.
Yea, I tell them to **** off from time to time. Especially if they acting like punk bitches.
Again, how does a word have class and manners?So exactly what I said, class and manners.
Grow up. We're playing a game right now.Again, how does a word have class and manners?

So, you don't know? Seems odd to offended by something but don't know why.Grow up. We're playing a game right now.
I don’t have a sister, but my mother uses it, I’ve used it around my mother, and if I get married, there is no way it’s gonna work out if they freak out at the occasional f-word.Do you want that word used in front of your mother?

That’s a weird, and maybe telling, connection to make.I've done my share of cursing when I was younger, but as I grew older I decided not to use profanity because it served no purpose.

Seriously, how old are you? Be honest.Then why use it at all?
Here's a pretty filthy mouth. IMO.
It doesn't matter the age because you're probably going to make a smart A remark regardless. I will, however, tell you another true story. My wife an I used to hang around this group fairly often and after a while, I noticed one of the guys had a very similar personality as me. He talked somewhat vulgar, told sexually implicit jokes etc. I soon realized that I didn't want to be seen in that manner and totally changed. Don't get me wrong though, I'm still no angel. For example, if I cut my finger or screw something up or see a team tip in an illegal basket to beat my team, there may be a couple of words slip out that are worse than Dag Nab It. In other words, there are times when a person does backslide so to speak. A person still has the final decision to make in every matter regardless of the situation, big or small. Sometimes we make the wrong choices and sometimes we just plain fail.Seriously, how old are you? Be honest.
I also liked the movie The Big Lebowski and didn't think it was over the top or overly vulgar just to be vulgar. Vulgarity in its self doesn't affect me as much as an excessive amount or unneeded to make a point.I'm probably with you on those last two things. I'm fine with f-bombs and sprinkling in cussing, as long as it's not absurd and not "sprinkled" properly. Even then, I'm not offended, I just start judging it as plain stupid to use so much to get one's point across. It adds color when used properly, but turns it crap black when it's overdone.
Many people probably think the Big Lebowski (movie) is over the top for them, but I thought the Coen Bros laid out the cursing perfectly - just enough sprinkling to be funny (colorful) without being stupid (crap black).
