Yet again, I have to blog about people who, while having fun on the blogs, choose to use language that most people consider inappropriate.
I once had a pastor, when presented with things that were blatantly wrong, referred to it as Horse Manure.
I was just monitoring one of my blog topics, and it said there were 29 comments. I had to delete 12 of them. 3 of them as repeats, but 9 of them because I believe the language was used in a negative context.
Some in the blogging community weasle their way around using censored words. I don't have to give you the list, we all know what they are. They changed, added or omitted a letter to use their choice of words.
Am I guilty of the same acts in the past? Absolutely! Am I trying to change that? I believe I already have.
The only word that I use, has a literal definition, but is also censored on FOX, begins with the letter B. I would only use that in referring to a female canine, and only when and where appropriate.
What about you?
I find that I can be much more tactful and even insulting without using such words. It makes much more sense to me to use words that actually describe what I am talking about rather than using words that are non-desript and profane.
Why does it seem that people have such restricted vocabularies that they cannot complete a thought without using some sort of profanity ?
I was once riding on a bus and heard some people talking in what appeared to be the language of profanity. They began speaking to me, and I spoke clearly using well defined WORDS. They told me I needed to expand my vocabulary, that my mind was limited. I used words that made sense. They used HORSE MANURE and nothing grew.

What to say? I'm just like everybody else. I got my own bedroom.
