There is only one curse phrase that bothers me and I get the urge to chastise a person every time I hear it. I've sent emails to TV shows because it has now become acceptable -- putting the Lord's name before "damned." That, to me, is much more obscene than the F word.

Course, it might be that I don't mind what words people use because I can probably out curse them. I know I can cuss wayyyy better than any sailor I've ever met. And we won't even discuss my first words in English, but suffice it to say we can across on a troop ship and a certain greeting got the biggest grin when said to another soldier. (If you ever want to hear the phrase, just ask me but TH would ban me for this life and any other lives I might have if I posted it here -- even abbreviated.)
