Even in the moments where one might normally think to scream, "What the FAHHHH were you thinking??!" it actually doesn't occur to me. So I'm interested in this whole question of the different roles swearing plays - whether in your writing (clearly not a lot of cursing going on in my policy analysis), or in conversation (I find that there is a higher cuss word per sentence ratio with certain audiences and probably about particular topics). One thing is for sure, swearing is good for my mental health.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1594040799707431375.post-31771671613242704362009-03-08T09:57:00.000-07:002009-03-08T09:57:00.000-07:00You, Kim?
