Subj : Re: Language To : Sean Dennis From : Daryl Stout Date : Sat Jan 30 2021 02:24:00 Sean, DS> I've heard of women whose tongues were so filthy, they'd make a DS> sailor blush!! SD> It's true. And, I thought women were better educated than that. My late wife, Janice, could tell someone off, and not use a single word of profanity. SD> I have been trying to stop swearing when I get mad. A bad habit, both. I dare say all of us are guilty of that at one time or another. Christian comedian Mark Lowery said about his motorcycle wreck in Houston, where he shattered he right leg, that "the cuss words came out of my mouth like old friends". He also noted after he was put in the ambulance, after saying "they cut my britches off", that "your Momma was right". The entire hall erupted in laughter, as they KNEW what he meant (always have clean underwear on). However, to the medical professions, nudity means nothing to them. They've seen more breasts, genitalia, and buttocks, than the rest of us will see in our lifetimes...it's another day at work (at the orifice??) for them. It basically is the same as a parent changing their child's diaper. When I was growing up, the diapers were cloth... washed and reused. Nowadays, they just throw them in the trash, and that's creating a big health hazard in the landfills. SD> I would like to think of myself as being better than expressing myself SD> in such terms. If there is such a thing as "good cussing", it'd be the way that Yosemite Sam swore. You can search for that on YouTube. Daryl ....
