if it wasnt for everybody swearing, that 14 year old wouldn't hear it all the time anyways, right?

also, grow up and stop with the cussing. and grow up and stop whining about people telling you to not cuss

At 27 years old you should have learned by now it's respectful to control your mouth in public, especially when younger people are around. Ok so he's 14 it's nothing new to him, what about if he was 4? It doesn't say much about you if your one of these people who feels the need to drop some sort of swear word in ever other sentence.

Just accept someone spoke their mind to you, like you were doing and move on.

I see your point but anyone can say whatever they want to be honest. We're all different I have the right to say anything I want plus kids in public school will learn anything so really what's the point of protecting from cursing they're eventually going to know.

People swear too fucking much these days.

Yeah, you hear kids swear, your kids hear other kids swear (particularly in the cesspool that is public school), etc, but that doesn't make it any less unpleasant when encountering someone who's needlessly crass and swearing inappropriately. Like most things, there's a time and a place, and around someone else's kid isn't that place.

Probably the most offensive thing about fuck is it's a substitute for saying something intelligent. (valuing emotion over logic etc.)

illogical censorship... just like censoring the sex organs on a porn....

quick jab at censored Japanese porn, I see. :creep:
There are actually women over in Japan fighting to remove censorship nowadays, that is how dated it is in this day in age.

To me censorship is just silly let people be free instead of being a censorship loving self righteous narcissistic conformist.

Fascinating. I seem to have inadvertantly applied a great force to my finger by means of a large mass aided by the gravitational pull of the Earth causing injury.

i try to have the decency to keep my mouth in check when around kids.
If parents don't want to have their kids hear me swear they just don't need to go outside.
If you want to shelter your kids that's not my problem.
Yesterday when I was at the gym I said Fuck a few times and a parent finally said something to me about I shouldn't say that because his 14 year old was in front of him. How the fuck am I suppose to know?! People make such a big deal especially over a 14 year old who goes to public school who hears that kind of stuff anyway I don't understand why people have to be so stuck up over one word. Plus I was hating on Karl Rove so I'm assuming he is a conservative he was a rude dick so I ignored him and I didn't apologize he didn't deserve one to begin with. Plus he interrupted me when I was talking to my friend and I found it more rude to interrupt others while having a conversation.
LOL entitled parent doesn't want their snowflaek hearing those awful words.
How sheltered is that 14 yo kid?
If you weren't talking to them and you were saying it in response to pain tell them to go fuck themselves.
Or better yet play this

To me censorship is just silly let people be free instead of being a censorship loving self righteous narcissistic conformist.
But then the FCC would have complaints from lazy parents that don't monitor what their kids watch on TV :rolleyes:

Don't swear.
Easy as that.

No need for vulgarities in public.
You're a barbarian OP.

The main problem I have with this is that it is people who decide what words are considered vulgar.
what if the word "Halo" was to suddenly be considered a vulgar word, then would people stop using that word in public freely?

real words have changed into supposedly less acceptable words before
the word "gay" is a great example. it changed meaning and look what happened. when is the last time somebody used that word in a sentence describing having a great day? (excluding watching Flintstones episodes)

I must be incapable of understanding why any words should be labeled as offensive/bad/vulgar?
it is just a word after all and other words that mean the same thing need to used in the place of a bad word for some reason when it means the same thing most of the time.

a little. but there are movies "on cable", it's old porn, but still porn.. they always show boobs but hide the sex organs.. either the woman puts the hand in front, or the legs are strategically placed, or they give the camera just the sides of the people... however theese movies, if you pay attention they are clearly faking it.. you can see either they are too far away from each other or just pretend, which is another mater
but come on. i hate those games of "the only forbidden thing is seing the nipple"
there is teasing and there is being ridiculous...

about bad words, i am kinda hypocrite.. i wouldn't want my kids saying bad words, in my everyday i don't use bad words it's just the habit of not saying them, sometimes i say one word or other, but it's not something i use normally or like to say it..
but at same time, it is just sound, air vibrating... there is no difference between a curse or a normal word... what will happen when you use a bad word? will a bomb explode? will it rain? what it is the effect? there is no effect...
it is just one of thoose "social stupid laws" like you can't wear a pajama for school or on your local bar even if it's extra comfy and you get really happy when wearing it..

We don't live in North Korea; we have rights. We can swear all we want. If they wish not to hear it, they can leave, as you're doing nothing wrong. Do not let them tell you what to do.

Funny, but "Ouch" would have been fine too. :P

Nothing wrong with occasionally using "fuck", except when you use it as a common substitute for descriptive words. In that case it makes you sound really stupid. It's about self-respect, not some grand battle against censorship.

I agree. I used to swear quite a bit in high school, but realize now how childish and unnecessary it is. People should be considerate of who is around you. Sure you have freedom of speech, but you should also be considerate. If you don't smoke and someone smokes right next to you and all their smoke goes right into your face.. That person would not be happy.

I blast my music loud in my car driving around and listen to a variety of rock / rap. If a song comes on that swears a lot and there is a car next to me at the stop light with their windows down and kids in the car, I turn the volume down until the light turns green and then turn it up again. In public settings, I try to be considerate of others... that is all.

I'm considerate in public. But, as a very old habit, I tend to say a few unpleasant words to the general public. To only unfold of how loudly I use these words without even knowing I actually even said them. It's a habit I have. Now, if I have a real reason to say this stuff, I'll do it. I shouldn't be pestered by the public of how to use my vocabulary in a free, public street. I don't like being told I'm not allowed to use my rights. That's pretty much the only reason I'd mouth-out these kinds of words.

Am I the only person wondering why someone brought their 14 year old child to a gym?
I kinda thought about that. That should be dealt with by the parents. The kids is 14. Not 9. If you're going for a quick 1 hour workout, I'm sure the kid can fend for himself. I am 13 and live on my own. ( Please PM me if I need to explain. Don't call off on that yet. ) Nothing happened to me.
