"Curses"

Thanks to influence and generally being with the wrong crowd in my earlier years, I have sometimes found myself unable to control swearing.

It was one of my new year resolutions to stop swearing and so far I think I've done very well. But there does come the odd times when I go mental and swearing seems to be the only anaesthetic.

It's not good, I know that, and I'm stopping. Maybe I should get a swear jar...

*ponders*

yep every time you swear you have to put 50p in the jar...

em I used to be the same.

Especially if I hurt myself!

How about every time you swear you put 50p in a jar and then when it comes to comic relief you send all the money from the jar to them? Cos if you just empty the jar and keep the money how does this effect you?
Just an idea.

Quite a good idear...
i dont normally swear, my parents would go insane if i did...

I swear in my head. Walking along somewhere and I'd be swearing at something bad.

Did it today. F word, over and over. Only because I didn't want to go somewhere.

I sometimes use funny replacements, such as heck, fudge, dump, freak etc. But at the of the day, nothing beats a good old fashioned swearing when something goes wrong.

I wonder who decided that there was going to be bad words, the could of decided that heaven is a bad word and that F*** is a different word for hello.
Strange...

i find muttering under your breath works
but dont do it in front of your parents if you still live with them cos mine always thinks im talking about them

Good point! I remember thinking something like that ages ago. Who thought up the English language, or all the languages for that matter.
Who taught the first person to speak English?! It's proabably a simple answer and my brain's not thinking good enough.

I have an incredibly foul mouth, which I'm actually quite proud of. I could make a docker blush.
