Some people think: Patton swore, therefore swearing makes you Patton.

Yep, and donnie uses it to denigrate, belittle and insult, a childish trait among people that have a limited vocabulary.

There are a lot of people that make that kind of association.

Most men I have known try to suppress that as they get older. Me...well, I try. I try every day to hold my emotions from ruling my tongue, but I fail. I tried keeping a swear jar (in conjunction with a woman in the same area who was trying to do the same thing) at work, but...it got silly. Just kept filling up.

But, that is, to me, a conservative trait. I am imperfect, but I don’t accept that and decide to live with it. I grapple with it to defeat it, even if I fail. (I succeed more than I fail now, I figure by the time I die I will have control of my tongue perfectly by then...of course, that sounds suspiciously like the passenger who asks the pilot of the plane that is low on fuel if they are going to make it to the ground, and he wryly replies that they will, one way or another...:)
