All through my younger years, I never cursed.
I had this idea that if you never curse, the times you DO it will make people around you jump and feel shock and take notice. I thought it would be my secret weapon for really driving home a point or getting attention. I was Mr Clean Language for all my childhood and adolescence and into my 20's.
Then I fucking bought a fucking home and the fucking thing fucking fell apart from the first day, then I got fucking betrayed by a fucking friend, fucking laid off, spend years fucking unemployed, watched my fucking family drink and drug themselves all to the grave, fucking buried everyone and started over and now I realize I have no hair and I'm old and angry so whatever. Fuck it.
