Looks like America's heartland is also home of the potty mouth.

EDIT: Nevermind, I'm reading the thing backwards. Looks like the southern US coast is home of the potty mouth. Sorry, heartland.

EDIT 2: That scale is kind of counter-intuitive isn't it? When you look at doppler, the heavier rates of precipitation are always darker in shade, not lighter.

Oh boy, I'll have to tone it down after I move. My day to day lexicon of profanity is more then verbose. :haha:

Freedom of speach is now considered potty mouth?

How often have I let you get along? You are a baby with a masters degree. If I'm so stupid, you can certainly counter my posts.

Okay, I turned the other cheek twice, @mbassador. It's back on now, and this time you have no grounds to cry that I'm picking on you. You asked for this.

'Potty mouth' has been a well-established term for swearing since well before 1930/29. Freedom of expression has nothing to do with it. Must you politicize everything. Can you not turn it off? Can you not help yourself?

I do truly believe that his behavior is a rather sick form of flattery, yes.

When conversing with you Tke I'd be more than happy to stop political dialog. But I will not stop being political with others on this board.

So the answer is no. Seriously, just say no next time. Save us the trouble.

Feeling stalked, Takeda? :D

A quote germane to the topic: "I arrived at the conclusion that the GI would be virtually speechless if a certain four-letter word beginning with F were lifted from his vocabulary. I kept a tally: thirty-four times... in two minutes!" (Gantter, Roll Me Over: An Infantryman's World War Two, 1997)

Cool! I'm on this map. Y'all see that bright bit in North Texas? That's me.
