or is foul language making more of an appearance lately?
Actually I know it isn't just me because we had this conversation at book club the other day.
One friend mentioned walking along with her daughter who is practicing her sounding out of words and she notices she is sounding out words in the parking lot. V-a-n and then s-t-op. And then she quickly works to divert her daughters attention when she sees a bumper sticker at eye level with the f-word. See what a prude I am with cursing, I can't even type it on my blog!!
I didn't even scream it when that 8 lb frozen cinder block of a roast fell on my toe the other day.
A coworker a few years back told me that he was in the car with his 8 or so year old daughter who said, "dad, they spelled organs wrong on that bumper sticker!" To his horror it was "orgasm", not organs and all he could do was agree with her that they were silly and had spelled it wrong.
I thought about it today as I was driving home listening to XM radio and was reminded that they are not subject to fcc regulations. Must be better about thinking about what song is on.
Then a few days ago we were out shopping at Costco and the language coming out of the guy behind us in line! I want to say he was oblivious to those around him, but truly, I didn't get the impression he even cared.
Naughty language to Leif and his friends is saying "stupid" or "hate".
And I get busted for "stupid" pretty frequently. Apparently I think a lot of things are stupid.
I am just going to sit and enjoy this stage for a little while...
