Do you have potty mouth?

Yes, yes, yes, yes!!! I thought I was the only one with a BAD mouth! I won't ever swear around my son. In fact I give people trouble when they swear around him. But when I am with my friends it is terrible. I honestly don't know why I do it either. I have tried to say "poop" but it just doesn't help. I am finding that "shyt" works because in Canada it is acceptable because it technically isn't a word here... But I am having a hard time stopping the bad words from popping out.

Ohh yes i have a potty mouth haha, i have since my first word, which started with f and ended with k, most of the time, i can't hold back, i do really well around kids, and businesses, but when it comes to regular socializing, i swear constantly, and gosh, you should hear some of the words that come out of my mouth... Here in MyLot, when you swear in a discussion and hit post rather instead of previewing it, and it'll just allow you to add an image in even if your under 500 (For responses) I've done this too many times, then realized that i've added in swears by mistake and then have to go back because it seems i have a swear normally for every couple of lines haha... I'm baddd

Oh I definitely have a potty mouth. Like you I don't do it in general conversation with strangers, etc. Only with people I know well and am comfortable with. I don't know how you break the habit - I've never managed to do it anyway! It's just that sometimes only certain words or phrases will do ... I mean "go away" just doesn't convey the same depth of feeling does it?

I do when like you I am tired and someone just goes on and on at me Or when I am very annoyed and I mean when I get totally stressed then half the time I don't realise and it is to late once it has left my Mouth lol I always feel terrible after though

I dont but I have had friends that did and when one asked me to help her break the habit I hit her took about 2 times she never did it again and when we ran up on her and hubby a couple of years later she thanks me said now she was comfortable to go to chruch since she stopped cussing

Congrats on reaching the prized 500th club! I'm working towards it myself...slowly but surely. hehehehe. Now, when I first talked to my hubby on the phone, nearly ever word out of my mouth was a cuss word. I wasn't raised like that. I was raised properly. But I was talking to a friend of mine on the phone who had a mouth like a sailor and I guess I picked up on his nasty habbit. Luckily, I've cleaned up my act for the sake of the kids. My son from my previous marriage has a funny history. When we had the US done, we were told he was going to be a girl. Lovely! I was looking forward to a girl, had girlie things and a girley name. Well, right after he was born, the doctor told me, "It's a boy!" I looked over and saw the wee wee sticking up and nearly yelled, "Damn it! It was supposed to have been a girl!" Sadly, KC's first word was 'F**K!" Needless to say, that cleaned up my mouth quickly!

I'm the same way...I have been trying to chill out on it for years now....I don't know how to STOP!! lol I need help! ha ha... I try not to do it around the kids or anyone, but sometimes when I'm really mad, it comes out...I really need to stop. My two year old is learning to talk and surprisingly she hasn't said a curse word yet...Although I thought one day she said Sh*t, but that's not what she was saying.. Thank goodness. I'm going to try harder to stop...I once tried to say "firetruck" instead of the BAD F-word. Didn't last too long though! Good LUck!

Yes, I am alot like that. When I am around friends or whatever I will cuss like crazy. I don't know why. I also don't know how I can subconciously control it when I am around people I shouldn't be cussing in fron tof. It's not like I am constantly thinking don't say it, or catching myself midsentance. It's not even a regular part of my vocabulary around certain people. But when I feel free to cuss watch out.

I say what the he** sometimes when I am mad. Thats about it. I try to not swear cause I know I am not supposed to. But when I am really mad I allow myself to say that. But nothing else, or I try not to.

yea have to say my mouth is pretty bad, i worked as a office manager ina towing company everyone was cussing all the time, my other half and his son have a very colorful vocabulary its just hard not to use the words you hear day in and day out

My dad was in the armed forces in Australia, and I grew up with a purple haze of cusswords hanging around the house. My mother, on the other hand, was always horrified. When left to my own devices (and with friends I know aren't too sensitive about it) I use the "F-word" rather extensively. Probably more than a human being reasonably should. I do think I tend to cuss a bit more when I feel tired and overworked, and my "fuse" has gotten a little shorter.

F--- yeah! I was raised properly too, then I started working in a male dominated job and picked up cursing like a sailor too. I don't have kids so never needed to clean up my language. I hardly notice it at all. But when I am around kids like my niece and nephew I realize how bad it is. Even when I think I am being good I get these dirty looks from parents. I look back on my childhood when bum bum was a bad word and laugh...if only they could hear me now!

Constant swearing usually indicates that a person lacks the vocabulary to properly express emotion. Practicing expressing your feelings when you are calm might help for when you are angry. Swearing is also picked up from other people. Limit your association with people who swear a lot.

sadly soccermom I also suffer from "potty mouth" I need to start on of those cuss jars - I could save up a fortune if I keep one in passagner seat of my car!!

The only time I have a bad case of potty mouth is when I am PMSing. I know people who use the "f" word repeatedly, and this isn't a good habit to use when you have small children. They pick up the word so easily. ONe way of breaking any habit would be to wear a rubber band around your wrist and when you catch yourself cussing away, snap the rubber band. That is how I stopped chewing my fingernails to the quick.

I admit it to I also have a potty mouth. What I have never understood is why cetain words are considered crude. I mean look at the orgin of the word f**k it was a legal term that meant that a spouse had cheated on another spouse. What about A** or B**ch these too words mean donkey and female dog. I mean if you think about it, they are just words. What makes them crude? Do you know? I would like to know why they are cuss words, when they wasn't until the last 60 years or so.

I dont have kids but when Im mad about something or somebody my mouth goes on and on. And after that I will feel so much better. LOL And sometimes I dont care who is around me.

I very rarely use swear words....if I do, it is out of EXTREME anger. When it happens, I feel horrible. I can't stand to hear other people speaking like that either...especially around children. You would be surprised how many people swear at their children. That just makes me cringe. I think that the best way to stop doing it so frequently is to realize how stupid people sound when they speak that way. They really sound uneducated and ignorant. I certainly wouldn't want to be percieved as an idiot....

Yup I have one of those the only one i watch my words around is my mom the one and only time swore around her had mouth cleaned with soap and my a$$ tanned never doen it since. I have found stopping and thinking about what i am about to say helps sometimes

I don't really. I didn't swear until I was 15. I never swear unless I'm really mad or if I'm quoting someone. I know a lot of people who do though. Some tips to quit are, to replace the cuss word with a similar word that isn't a swear.
