ok this isnt a BIIG deal but its still a deal to me and i could use advice

i know im not the most intelligent person in the world

but i do have intelligence

but sometimes when im stressed n stuff n i am a lot... i dont show that..because of why?- what i say?- no

the fact that i use "bad words" too much. i have to admit when others say "fuck" too much it's annoying and makes them SEEM kinda lame and stupid in my mind.

im not saying that is how it really is.

cause i do it too and i wanna stop but i use certain words for emphacise and i wanna stop and find more intelligent sounding words to express how i feel. you just dont get as much respect when you swear too much.

no matter what else you say....

and i try to stop and do well and then all the sudden i get in a mood, usually pms!!! (i get it BAAAD!) and im cussing all the time and i dont like it cause im "smarter" then that.

any advice?

(or you can just call me a dumm ass whore fuckhead and shut the fuck up)

 

I swear inordnatly too much, but that is because it upsets my parents and I resent them to no end.....


it sorta becomes a habit after you can get that vein to bulge with one well executed sentence, you know the one right in the forehead..... yeah... that is satisfying....

 

that's the thing.

it becomes a habit.

and i dont think swearing is WRONG.

just words.. know what i mean?

i just wish it wasnt so much of a habit for me

 

yeah i do that to an extent....

 

just find humerous substitute words, i.e


fuck = fork

shit = smurf

damn = dredge

things like that, after you realize how ridiculous you sound angry (unless you enjoy the attention the humour brings) you can ween yourself off profanity entirely....

 

my gramma used to say "sugar!" when she meant "shit"

HAHA

 

What's wrong with swearing? it helps save the time needed to build a decent vocabulary.....

 

i generaly only curse when ya just cant help it, like if you smash your hand with a hammer definately i'll scream fuck..,m but i dont uses it that much in normal conversation like some do, although they are just words that slip into normal conversations alot these days & arent exactly as taboo as they used to be.. but your right about having every other word be fuck just makes you sound dumber then you are, so perhaps the solution is to conceisly correct yourself everytime u use 1 like if you say fuck i need a cig now, soon as u catch it no mater whos there say aloud ioops sorry i mean man i need a cig & eventualy u will condition yourself to use more acceptible terms so you wont have to correct yourself

 

i's fukkin terrible! when i'm with my mates, we use fuck about 3 times a sentence. It has become a staller, like u would say umm or err, we say fuckiiiin. we even start sentences with it. eg "fuckin, wot the fuck was that fuckin shit all about?!". cos we all swear so much, the words have lost all meaning and u forget and can't understand how people take offense to them. By the way, i'm not thick either, i am a graduate engineer. I think swearing is harmless as long as you are a good enough judge of character to know when it is inappropriate.

 

I understand. I think one of my personality's swears alot. I decided on my word processer that when I was typing, I was using too many cuss words in my journaling when upset and then I used the auto correct to change the word like when I typed the word 'Fuck' it would automatic change it to word 'freak', and 'damn' changed to 'darn' and 'shit' to 'crap' and 'ass' to 'butt' and so on....I made me even more pissed off when I was mad typing my feelings and I wanted to use the cuss words and that is how I felt and the computer was overriding my mind and I deleted the 'substitutes' to the real words.

I do admit I have a bad time praying and frustration then cussing in prayer and I am working mostly on not cussing during prayer.

Peace Rxhead.

 

sometimes no other word will do. is there any real substitute for asshole? and with out fuckyou it would be a less expresive launguege indeed. and if someones being a bitch, hey thats what there being, what else can you say?

 

*substitute for asshole* (granted it's not one word, but nothing is perfect)

"YOU SHOULDA BEEN A BLOWJOB!"

 

I don't usuallyswear that much, unless I'm high. Then again when I am high I have a tendency to ramble on and on without the use of intelegence, and I think the swearing is used to fill in the gaps.

 

Would have to agree with that - it is only when it reaches the every other word stage that it becomes somewhat monotonous. All words should, ideally, be used carefully. However, I know I do not live up to that standard. But then again I don't give a fuck.
