Usually, I draw my "language line" at the original seven deadly words ... but this guy just peeved me.

He apologized quickly, promised he wouldn't do it again, and he didn't.

You know, most of my cursers are women. And sometimes I don't call them on it, 'cause I'm too busy laughing!

Had a customer call me once with a gnarly software issue. We'd been working on it for some time, without success, when I found a possible solution and told her about it, warning her it was risky. She said, "Oh, let's try it for s***s and giggles."

I had never heard that term before (I am sheltered), and I laughed out loud!

On the other hand ... had a woman respond "WTF cares?" to a pertinent question I asked. I warned her about her language. She replied, "What ...? F***? That's not cursing!"

"It is where I come from."
