OT: Who gets the last word?

My kids don't swear, but we use Tabasco as a punishment anyway. Their pediatrician thought it was funny and said if it works, go for it. Usually just taking the bottle out of the fridge does the trick. They both call it "red fire".

One time Joe made a stupid mistake in Sam's Club. He was running around and being a pain in the ass, so my husband told him he'd get out the "red fire". Joe said "But you left it at home". So then my husband went and found the huge bottle they sell at Sam's that's only $4. That's the one we're working on right now. But Joe never, ever tells us we forgot to bring it (again).
 
I need to go down to the library and check out the DT series. It's been on my To-Do list for forever.

I highly recommend that you read everything on the DT list first, if you've never read any of the DT books before. I read the DT books as they were coming out, til Tad gave me the list of other books. Then I read those and continued on with 4, 5 and 6. Everything made more sense. As much as it can, anyway. I believe the list is in the cover of Wolves of the Calla. Maybe the others, too, I don't remember. It's damn near every SK book, though. So it could take a while. I think it was two years or more before I could give Tad an accurate book report.
 
Quit swearing? Fuck that!

Of course I'm pretty cautious around Antonio and Amanda, these days they'll repeat anything. Antonio would just love to swear if he knew any, I'm sure. Right now, his biggest insult when he's mad at me is "You're a big stupid hot dog!"

:lol: That's a good one. I'm still just plain old "meanie". But if he'd stop falling asleep on the floor in the playroom in his clothes, then I wouldn't have to wake him up to change him, send him to the bathroom and put him in bed. And he wonders why his bedtime is getting earlier, and earlier.....
 
kids will swear no matter what you try to do.
so fuck off nff.

The first time Joey said something, I forget what it was, we told him "That's not a Joey word." And he never said it again. So we did that with every swear word that came along, and he never did pick up swearing. His favorite word right now is "Sweet!" and I'm about to ban that one, too, because I'm tired of hearing it.

Tonya, on the other hand, didn't pick up as quickly. She did on the really bad ones, but I still hear her from time to time telling Joe she's gonna beat his ass. :lol:
 
Isn't it ironic, though - I give up swearing (made it two full days so far), and start dieting and exercising, which are more than enough to have even Mother Teresa cursing like a sailor.

Y'know... it's like rain on your wedding day...

AAAIIIEEEE!!!! Cheezy Alanis attack! Getitout, getitout, getitout!
 
My Dad's a truck driver, so growing up, I heard lots of colorful metaphors. But, if I ever used them, it was soap in my mouth. I remember being 9 or 10 and thinking to myself, "what the hell is a cocksucker?" That was my Dad's favorite.

My husband still fears swearing in front of his parents.

i'm a trucker and i can swear pretty well. when my friend john are around, better not have your kids around. 2 truckers who both like swearing.
