Does Anyone Have A Family Swear Word?

    Laffin!!  Billy!! omg can't believe you did that...lol
    I was just thinking about how I curb myself in the car so I don't teach my kids just how much other drivers tick me off.  So instead of swearing, yelling, or fingering I just mutter under my breath:  "Do the letters 'F - O' mean anything to you?"  Well one day I got cut off some nutsack weirdo and I am really biting my tongue.  My daughter pipes up with "Mom, I don't think they get the whole F - O thing."  She gets the tone, and she knows I'm irked, she just doesn't know what the F is for or the O.  Also I don't teach her  the made up word "F*ck*nGr**v*n so I do say 'FlickerGroupers'.

    I used that line with a co-worker who happened to be democrat and he corrected me, as he drove a Toyota.
     
    I would like to see us have presidential candidates with ethical problems. With Clinton, it was women. With Bush, it's oil.
     
    That's why I always wanted to vote for Frank Zappa. His slogan was "A troubled man for troubled times."

    My mother could invent new combinations of curse words and I learned that from her, though I was not allowed to curse in her house. The only time we could say Hell was when we were reading the Bible.
     
    Growing up around the military, I also knew the meaning of the acronyms, SNAFU and FUBAR.

    I know the meanings of those, too, Ron.

    I drive a Nissan AND a Toyota. Not necessarily at the same time, though.

    When driving I call people "Bonehead!" fairly frequently. I do call them other things, but so far Sofia hasn't repeated any of it. [8|]

    Be happy she hasn't! I worry that one day one of cousins or my niece will get Blue upset and he will unleash the F you word.  I'm sure no one is going to believe me when I tell them their child has learned a bad word from my dog saying it .[&:] Only my brother and my mom have heard Blue say it so far.

    Heehee! That reminds me of being in church youth group. Of course we weren't allowed to swear.  *But* we often had group events where we took "the van," and we had to drive down a street called "Dam Road."  We loved saying, "Oh, look, it's Dam Road! Hey, there's the Dam tree! And a Dam house!"  Our youth pastor let us get away with it as long as we were driving on the road, and then we had to stop. [8|]

    I blame my husband. LOL He's a trucker.

     
    I'm a retired owner operator - I bet I know all the words he does.

    Well Ron, ya gotta admit - at least when Clinton scr*wed the nation, he only did it one person at a time.[;)]

    Jensw,
     
    You are pronouncing it as I do and if it wasn't my screenname I would probably substitute it for a swear word. As it is, it was a nickname one uncle gave me when I was a baby.....my grandparents and 4 uncles each had their own nickname for me...I was a very spoiled child (with attention) LOL. When the time came to pick an internet name that was something no one else had so it worked great. I use it for anything.

    I say "Bugger!" alot(closet Bridget Jones fan)
    but I do drop the f-bomb more often than I should around my kids, and they just know that is something they aren't allowed to say "until they are mommies and daddies"-I know, I'm awful.
     
    my bumper sticker says "I'm going nuckin futz", everyone at the grocery store gets a good laugh when they see it on my mini van, with four or more kids/dogs piling in/out.  They just give me that all knowing look of sympathy.

    Oh this is a good thread. I will have to remember some of these because I do not under any circumstances swear at work. (Sadly when I get home it all pours out, and the f-bomb is a personal fav.)
     
    I do say cheese and rice or rats, and I use "thank you" in place of  f-bomb-U. (Although I am sure after one look into my eyes, and people realize I am not really saying thank you [;)]) I also do the Ross-thing from 'Friends' where you knock your fists together instead of flipping someone off. It makes me feel much better.
    • Gold Top Dog
    Yeah, it's the personal touch that counts.

    Give it time.

    The thing is, do we know what our dogs are yelling at those OTHER DOGS in OTHER CARS?

    This is what I think Sofia is saying:

    "HEY YOU! How DARE YOU! Don't LOOK at me!! YOU RAKENFRACKEN POODLE HUMPING BUTT LICKER! COME OUT HERE AND FIGHT! I'LL SHOW YOU A THING OR TWO I WILL!! GO AHEAD, I BET YOUR CAT BEATS YOU UP!! I BET YOU GO CRYING TO YOUR MOOOOOOMMMY! DID YOUR MOMMY SHAVE YOU THAT WAY OR ARE YOU JUST PLAIN UGLY? TURN AROUND WHEN I'M TALKING TO YOU! HAH! YOU MEAN THAT ISN'T YOUR BUTT?? I BET YOU PEE IN THE HOUSE!! COME ON OUT OF THAT CAR AND FIGHT LIKE A REAL DOG!!"

    And so on.
