Potty Mouth

Dirty Mouth

Do you have a potty mouth? Does the F word slip out two or three times while you are talking? Or maybe shit, or damn, or dammit? Some say the F word is the worst of all. Me, it normally doesn’t come out of my mouth unless I’m pissed off about something. I’ve been known to utter it on occasion. That being said, it isn’t very lady like, is it? We all have gutter mouths from time to time. 

If you’ve ever listened to someone who tells a story, if there are swear words in it the story becomes twice as long as it would have been otherwise. Slipping in the F word prolongs the story, short, long or otherwise. 

No manners

‍

Some say anyone with a potty mouth is uncouth. In simpler words unmannerly. They have no manners spewing forth hatred rhetoric whenever they speak. An uncultivated person who may live in a trailer, jobless, with no manners. Belching loudly as he sucks on a beer, cursing like a sailor. Take him or leave him I’m sure he doesn’t give a crap what you think. He has his opinion and is ready and willing to force that opinion down your throat. Just ask him. His tales are often full of curse words. He spits on the ground as he speaks, chewing tobacco hits the dirt and settles in a slimy nasty puddle of gelatin. I can picture him in my head. A loudmouth know-it-all whose opinion you can never sway. He lives and loves to curse. He thinks the world owes him a favor and he’s willing to ask for it. Just ask him. On the other hand, there is always the educated guy or woman who loves to curse. The one who should really know better but curses anyway. The F word becomes prevalent in their speech, and they don’t shy away from it. They have the attitude that insists if they are regaling everyone with a story, everyone should be on the edge of their seat.  Listen to me as the words fly out of their mouth, swear words mixed and mingled into their tale. Making it a mixed bag of truth and lies. Embellishment is always added into the tales they tell. It’s more exciting and riveting. Toss in a couple of dammits or shits, and you’ve got a whopper of a story.

It Says What

‍

The Bible says you shouldn’t use words to belittle, demean or attack someone. It’s a sin. It does not say you cannot swear. As long as your swearing isn’t directed at someone, I’m thinking we all should be good with it. 

Some say it makes a person look unintelligent when they swear. Like I said earlier, maybe if you have a pair of bib overalls on, and you're sitting outside a dilapidated trailer with a gun by your side. You smile and everyone sees your “summer teeth”. Some are here and some are there but there not very many anywhere. Some may jump to the conclusion you are unintelligent. Perhaps you shouldn’t shatter their reality by speaking at all. Better to have stayed silent than to open your mouth and remove all doubt.

So, all in all if you want to swear, I say go ahead. It’s called freedom of speech. If it isn’t directed toward anyone or anything. Have at it. Maybe it puts a smile on your face and makes it a better day for you.

The words don’t f**k with me do come with a little bit of bite.
