I mean this in the sense of "every other word out of the mouth" - not "an occasional 'slip' of the tongue"...Foul language is a symptom of "deep-seated unhappiness"...

I kind of see it as a habit. Much like the canned religious expressions some Christians use.
Foul language is a symptom of an unsophisticated mind.
Yes, both do. This is part of Rene Girard's "Mimetic Theory" at play.I think it has a pack mentality to it too.

Worth some study, if you haven't heard of it. Imitatio: A Very Brief Introduction
Try walking into an inner-city treatment center some time. Wow!I notice it on construction sites that I work on. At breaks, as the conversation unfolds, more and more f bombs are dropped. It's really quite interesting to watch.
I am so sorry peeps... I was so worn out last night, I actually went to bed at 9pm... and slept till about 30 mins ago. (thats unusal for me) but this morning I got an update.... my SIL STILL hasnt woken up yet... she has been removed off the vent.... but she wont wake up. she has tubes and stuff on her face and shes trying to take them off... so someone has to be in her room with her to keep her from touching them. this worries everyone that shes not waking up. so they are going to do another CT scan on her today to see whats going on... I'm not really worried about this, cause I know she was having trouble sleeping all the time... so the way I see it, shes caching up on a lot of much needed sleep... is that bad to think that?
I hate it when I see kids learn this from hearing it from adults....Speaking of foul language, the one thing that bugs me more than the four letter words is when someone uses Gods name in vain. Usually I try to correct them especially if I know that they know better. Whew! Now I feel like I got a weight off my chest.
How did we get on the topic of foul language? Does anyone else think that many times when people start swearing it sounds like a temper tantrum?
