I think I can remember about twice that I have used it in front of them. Once, avoiding a traffic accident, which I was nearly IN. The other when I dropped something heavy on my foot. The first, I was given a pass, because we were all trying collectively not to crap our respective drawers. The second... Not so much. <br /><br />CatCathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16085463730809297977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4300332596847087857.post-80634441329995399222012-04-07T07:21:42.148-07:002012-04-07T07:21:42.148-07:00Oh, man.

I'm not sure my mom ever heard that word before. I was in sixth grade before I saw the word "shit" on the bathroom stall, and I thought someone in my class had made it up. On the other hand, she got upset if we said "God." Like, just, "God." I still don't know what it means to take someone's name in vain.
