I prefer to reserve those types of high calibre vulgarities for when they are explictly required over lesser words.

To me is shows a limited vocabulary regardless of the speaker.
Which is turn shows a lesser mentality and thought process.
Now I can understand a word slipping out every now and then (such as
hitting your thumb by accident with a hammer) but not a regular basis.

Agreed, thus my limited & controlled use of them. . .

The problem I have is if the company I'm in uses them freely (like punctuation) I tend to pick up on it & it takes a while to rid myself (as a young'un, I did freely speak that way in the company I kept, but in public I was a paragon of intelligent vocabulary.

& around seniors & women, not a whisper of anything untoward.

Doesn't work well nowadays, amn older Cattholica friend of mine approacged some teen boys in a McDonalds tyo suggest they speak without swear5ing since there were young ladies(also high schoolers) present

One of the teen girls came right up into his face, blowing off eveery kind of expletive dircted at my friend for being ild fashioned & not understandsing modern speech, & that she would have her friends speak any ****in' way they want, as that's proper & hecould just foxtrot-oscar.

He was so sad in telling me this, I could tell--it hurt him deeply.

I'd've given 20:1 odds she'd be a single mom with 5 kids within 6 years.

So little respect for herself & her sex/gender, often includes being too free & open elsewise, too.

It is sad. . .

& these women who get ANGRY when you act chivalrous. . .

Thinkingb we're trwating them like helpless children, when really we're just giving respect to the group that God has chosen to suffer periods & painful childbirths. . .

Well, tbh, I let them precede me to enjoy the view, too, but mostly respect & consideration.

I'm ready for any of these chip-on-the-shoulder types!

"What are you looking at?"
Those parts of you you deliberartely put on public display for all to see." "The view wasn't intended for YOU!"
Let me explain to you a little concept called public versus private. . .

& they can't tell me they chose those 5" stiletto heels for "comfort" -- they exist ONLY to highlight the derriere. & back of the legs.

I can ytwell, quickly, the difference between the woman wearing a slutty blouse on purpose to display her goods for all to see & the oman wearing a like top, who only has that left to wear that's clean, & had to rush out,& is terribly self-conscious. Her, I don't ogle; the other, I feel free to do so (I'm discreet, of course-- I'm not a pig)

Of I were single, in a mibgling place, I'd let women I'm interested in know that I am. & compolmenmt them on their provocative & appealing attire.

If I don't appeal to her, I'll know in seconds, & proceed elsewhere, & elseher.

If she's rude aout it, I'll feel free to respond in kind, depending on mood.

My responses tebnd to be of a higher intellectual quality, though, & are reasoned out to fully meet her rudeness head on, in detail.

But usually I wouldn't. I'd wish her well on her evening's searches, & move on. . .

Plenty of fish in the sea & I'm just the worm to catch one!

Well, now I got one, so I'm thankfuly out of the games now. . .

I feel bad for those who are still seeking, though.. .

In this day and age, in the US, it is somethings difficult to find a single woman who does not have at least a whole arm covered in them. :)

Al,

4: Don't have a face and neck covered in tattoos.

Some of them have so many piercings, it looks like they stumbled
over the ink palatte before they fell into a fishing tackle box.

And, they wonder why no one wants to be around them.

True, and as much as I dislike tattoos, having them on the arm isn't nearly as bad as face and neck tattoos. Maybe it's because 90% of the mugshots I see on TV are of guys with face and neck tattoos.

Yeah, I know what you mean. That, and piercings in places besides their
ears, and besides their noses. I call them "real winners." :)

That fits in with #3 already -- not a lot of facially tatted guys have jobs -- pretty much only Mike Tyson, but I think even he's retired now.

I get it; Mike Tyson answers an ad for receptionist, shows up to interview, & looks at the wee milquetoast manager & leans over him to say, "I start on Monday, 'right?"

Manager, "subscript: eep/subscript Yes, sir!"
