In my experience Sag's have always shown me some colourful and creative language. My dad for one!! And as a rambunctious kid I learned quite a few from some not so happy or friendly people, who never learned to take a joke...

as far as lawyers~ ha! my husband is one of the great litigators here in the state of california.. U ever hang around a law office? they are intelligent and yes sometimes they curse. of course this is generalizing, office culture is different from firm to firm~i'm sure if you went to the corporate tax department you would find a whole different type of character. and yes, we are all aware and have been through mandatory "sensitivity training" doesn't make foul language in the work place nonexistant. that's like saying the speed limit is 55 therefore no one speeds.

I wasnt giving you a lesson in merging of cuss words... i was simply giving and example of "the many ways the F word can be used" ...therefor there is no partonizing attitude. Your taken me outta context! im simply stating my opinion, your getting all defensive and huffy about it. Everyone is entitle to thier own. I just disagreed with your statement in your opener is all. Which i have a right to do - disagree.

LOL...yelling at you? And NOW I am crass because I pointed out that it is almost unrealistic to see CEO's, MBA's and others talk like unintelligent morons.

You don't HAVE to explain anything to me. I KNOW how that there are too many lawsuits and we all spend too many hours in those boring harrassments courses to risk a job by using curse words in dealing with people.

Here is another question; Why is it people act one way when they are in the eyes of the public (that is they refrain from using curse words) yet when they feel it's okay they cuss like it is going out of style? DO you think it is because it is not an acceptable way to address people? Why do you think it is unacceptable and offensive?

Hmmmm...now THAT is something to ponder.

Those are the people that I will avoid at all costs because how can one carry on an intelligent conversation with someone that curses constantly. Imagine this conversation;

"Hey bob, how are things going with the sale of your house"

"Oh, god damn, fu*king great, holy $**** , can you believe those fuc*ers tried to lower the fu*king asking price?"

I have had some friends that completely crossed the line and used strings of profanities while being in the presence of kids (and I don't mean by accident, it was the way they talked).

You are exactly the person that I am talking about. When you can't find anything else to say, you resort to using curse words - I can only assume because you are unintelligent. LMAO..

Funny how ignorant you really are and how you have problems with basic comprehension.

You will find that when I referred to California I also stated that I am FROM there..so Cal to be exact - I would hardly call Laguna Hills - Orange County a small town.

You would also be surprised at what we do here in this small town. My roll now is in the Bioterrorism unit since we do have a fair amount of illegals coming into this country a mere 10 miles from where I work.

Oh wait, then again, you lump all people that come from a town that is NOT New York as being hicks, and of course you have a thing against the sexual orientation of some of the people on this board as well as other races..but I am sure you will come back with something indicative of your intellect and call me a retard again. Oh.....the pain....LMAO

I think someone missed her Wheaties this morning. Whats with all the rudeness PID?!? I never saw a remark (in this thread) from TP where cussing was used. Your version was used "Freaking" (which derived from , well i dont have ta go there)Talk about name calling and different ways to use the words negativly ... you might as well jsut called TP a F*UCKIN IDIOT ... unintelligent, thats a cheap shot if ya ask me, but you didnt, but i thought i would give my OPINION!

anyways ... im late, i got a date with
Mac-a-feckin-roni and Chizzeez with a lil ham - peace! LOL

btw, i also have merc in cap

posted May 23, 2005 08:54 PM              

all i was saying is intelligent people curse too. did you feel i was attacking your leadership? i wasn't. friendly debate is good.

my merc is in libra, so therein lies a perfect example of communication clash. you sag, me virgo~ your merc cap, mine in libra~both are strong but come from a different place. your capricorn merc explains why you may be a bit more traditional. its understandable why you find foul language so appalling me having merc libra, i'm about communicating and balancing right and wrong and discussing ideas.

have a nice night~

She has been banned from LL at least 3 times and yet keeps coming back. When she doesn't like what someone says, she will turn around and call them a "fuc*king b1tch or retard..of any of the other names she likes to use".

She knows what I am talking about and so do most of the people here that have dealt with here in this forum as well as others.

I think her latest thing was to call TINK a dumba$$ and me a Blanking retard - oh yeah..and a hick LOL...

As a Sag I can have quite a mouth if I am so moved, but I try not to because it really never gets anyone anywhere. I will cuss when I smash my finger or sometimes to make a point, but again, it is better to use real words to convey what I am trying to say (besides you just never know who is around and I really hate offending the elderly or being a bad example for kids).

The thing is, we all have our own opinions. I don't believe that "constant" cussing makes one come across as intelligent, even if they have an IQ of 200. That is my choice- just like others think cussing is cool or a creative form of communication.

posted May 23, 2005 09:03 PM              

I do remember seeing some post from her a while back in her old illusion of self. By the looks of it, shes meerly trying find her place and fit in ...

posted May 23, 2005 09:06 PM            

and for the record - I never called someone a fu*ktard. I heard someone get called that the other day - I had never heard it before and thought it was pretty rude yet creative.

Oh and Angel..I believe this constitutes as cussing.

"Who gives a f*$k who curses. That is there problem."

As far as TP finding her place, she has been given at least 10 chances and still tries to attack people. It is HARD to get banned from this site and yet it has happended to her several times. Randall is the only one that makes that decision and he does it wisely, not because people may not like someone or because we might think the person is "icky".

Pid,
I didnt mean to offend you in any way. I honestly couldnt see you saying that word as hard as you were fightin! I dont use cuss words as often as you think either. I use them just about daily and yes they do come out on accident. Never do talk cuss word after cuss word after cuss word. That does sound very stupid. But i choose when the appropriate time is to use them. 1) never in front of kids and 2) respectful of the people who are easily offended by them 3)anyone new into the circle.

on that note... have a wonderful night!

About the language...
I agree that sometimes if you use too many swear words, it takes the emphasis off your ability to hold an intelligent conversation, and there are much more creative ways to use words.
I know I have met people who were not someone you'd class as intelligent.. and they did tend to swear more.. but swearing alone does not indicate stupidity.
I find myself slipping, and if my ire is up, I do tend to think in terms of 'quick', to the point language, and after all, that's what those words are all about anyway. But when holding an actual conversation, I will use F for emphasis, if called for, but generally, try to use better terms.
I have times that I will swear like a sailor though. Sometimes it's fun.

The TP thing.. I don't want to wade in those waters anymore.. My only issue (with anyone) is respect.
If there is respect ( or apologies if we lose it momentarily, or misunderstand ) then I am good.
So far so good... not that I am a police force, but I sort of am by nature, love it or not ( sometimes not)

Hi Pid! How are you?
