the s-word has transformed to “crap” and is widely acceptable, as i can even use it in front of mom and not blush.
all the substitutions for the f-word are lame, and when i catch myself just about to its usually covered up with a last-min “F!!” or “freak”
lets just say im still working on it…

I’ll consider using “gosh” or “goodness” in place of the Lords name in vain as fixed. The letter words (f-word, s-word…) still need a little work.

I know that’s not an excuse to start cursing again. But just so you know what it’s like driving in Jakarta, check this and this out. It can be frustrating, I’ll be very proud of myself if I can manage to not curse while driving in day. HARD WORK. But I’ll try.
This is entry 3 of 3 this week.

Unlady like
11 months ago
I’m a single parent trying to better myself everyday. I have my Bachelor’s degree and now working on my Masters. I should know more words than st,fk, and mf. I want to stop this bad habit for my daughter’s sake, because I want her to know that this kind of behavior is unacceptable and unlady like. I’m attractive and classy so I know I need to stop this madness.

Recent soccer matches have made this goal a level more challenging (I’m NOT making excuses). Most of the time it’s “f_ck” and “sh_t” but then expands to “godverdomme”, “debiel”, “stom[meling]”, “klere[wijf]”, “zak” and “GOBLOK!”. There are still like 3 matches left but I don’t have any business supporting any of the remaining teams (lack of emotional attachment) so less likely to cuss like a sailor.
Non-soccer related: “STFU” because ‘stupidity’ and ‘humility’ make an acceptable combination—I can be stupid too. But when [insecure] people get arrogant ABOUT their stupidities, I cuss (still not an excuse).

hi. i’m a designer from indian and i just felt that kids and for a matter of fact even adults happen to use cuss words casually … i came up with a fun and exciting way to actually engage kids in not doing so .. i had gum strip embossed with cuss words and designed a new brand of gum called “saints gum †. the whole thought was .. chew on’em don’t spew ‘em ! ... i hope kids catch on this find other creatives ways of using the english language ….

I’ve been cursing a lot lately due to some unfortunate events. I’m going to restart today and try to eliminate the salior talk. <3

I decided to try to stop using profanity yesterday. Unfortunately, I use more than 40 curse words a day… maybe more, with F#*) being my favorite. So this is a challenge. Yesterday I refrained multiple times. I think I cursed 3 times total, maybe 5 without realzing it. My sister actually NOTICED that I wasn’t cursing.
Today, I cursed once so far that I can recall. I’m working on it, but its really hard for me. I better work harder though because I’m training to be a professional and I can’t use that language in my line of work.

I am doing so well. I still use “shit” a lot. But I don’t utter these words at people, but when I slam the door on my finger or drop something that’s real expensive.
I had seen a gorgeous girl a month ago, and when she opened her filthy mouth she became less attractive.
