I swear, but only for medicinal purposes

My sister made a comment about how she admired her husband for not swearing when household plumbing projects go bad. This puzzles me, I thought that's what swear words were created for! Actually for me it was mostly "Yuk!" when I had to clean out the drain pipe, also had a few choice words for the guy at Home Depot while driving home, but Petey D. Dog had no comment.

The guy at my night job who swears the most is a deacon at his church. He pretty much sticks to the four-letter words though.

I think I read somewhere that back in the day, a lot of guys in radio were prolific cussers when not on the air. I think it has something to do with liking the sound of your own voice. Is that so wrong?

What really grinds my gears though was the blatant lie at the very bottom of the reciept; Low prices You Can Trust. Every Day.
