15. Oh, I agree entirely

I like to reserve my best swear words for special occasions, they have more impact that way. Swearing too much can become a bad habit. Pretty soon, it replaces a lot of more appropriate and effective words.

I've been around some people who swear all the time and it ends up bringing other people down. Meanwhile, I live in an in-law apartment and I spend a lot of time with my five year old grandsons. I am very careful what I say around them and I don't want them to pick up any inappropriate words from the TV. If the news is on when they come in, I quickly hit pause or turn it off.

Of course, most of my swearing these days is at the TV!!!
