Anyone Enjoy Swearing ?
 
I've come to notice as of late, I really enjoy swearing whenever another motorist does something really stupid around me. I just love spouting off a barrage of four letter beauties whenever someone cuts me off or merges into my lane without looking ! In fact, I found that a steady alliteration of "F" words can burn off more stress than a set of deep knee bends . Does anyone else enjoy this ?

I was followed about three miles for not letting a fellow motorist into the merge after he flew down the outside lane at warp nine to pass everyone. The guy tried to veer at my car aggressively twice to scare me, what a dick! Next time it happens I'm driving right to the police center near my house where I know a few peeps, let's see what steroid lad wants to start there over an issue that he should be the apologetic one for attempting to pull. Now in the meantime Johnno why aren't the boys in engineering whipping you up one of these abortions?

I absolutely loathe tailgaters. Had one a few months ago tailgate me on the freeway, then flip me off. I proceeded to tailgate him for a few miles getting VERY close to his rear bumper at 75 mph. Scared the crap outa' him! Oh, I left out one minor detail. I wasn't in my Boxster. (wouldn't have done that in it) I was in my girlfriend's F250 crew cab. The tailgater..... was in a Civic. Fool.....

Swearing.
You're a yankee, ain't ya?
It's cussin' son.

At least that's what they say when you cross the Mason Dixon line.
When I lived in CT, it was swearing, down here in TX, we cuss.

Some subscribe to the theory those who do it do not like it done to them. I don't see it that way. You can't start up with ignorant people or they pull you down in their vacuum of ignorance and once there beat you with the experience of dwelling in said lair for most of their lives.

Another poor soul doomed to watch that movie, every year, year after year, until you know the $%#&^@ script by heart. I feel your pain.

But to the original topic, I don't cuss much in traffic, but if I hit my thumb with a hammer or bang my head on something then I don't hold back at all - the resulting barrage is worthy of Ralphie's dad.

I do it all the time. I also tend to throw things when working on something and it goes wrong. It makes me feel good.. A basic character flaw cross eyed bear.:rolleyes:

PS, I am especially fond of "Mother F****r" shouted as loud as possible especially if blood is drawn!

I almost never swear - except when I'm driving and mostly in reponse to the crazy-ass stuff that other drivers do. Am I perfect? Certainly not but I generally keep the car in the proper lane, use my turn signals, and don't talk on the phone.

ProjectM96 05-14-2012 10:46 AM

I'm 23 now, and I still have never cursed in my life. I just can't do it.

Yeah....you're right. I guess I'm just a knuckle-dragger.

Angry speech increases anger leading to angry actions. A bad idea in traffic.

A hurt thumb is pain, but out of macho we express anger.

I just shake my head at idiots and am thankful nothing bad happened (to me). If anything I turn up the Italian Opera on the stereo and try to increase calmness. For me, cursing and getting upset just makes ME feel worse; I prefer feeling superior.

Johnny Danger 05-14-2012 01:50 PM

Does anyone have any good swears ? I'm running out of ones of my own ! :)

thom4782 05-14-2012 02:05 PM

Several months ago, I noticed a left lane guy driving a 15+ year old Benz convertible tailgating a car in front of him with less than 1 car length separation between them. As traffic slowed and I passed on the right, he abruptly changed lanes to tailgate me. I slowed and he jumped back into the left lane and continued to weave in and out of traffic as I left him go ahead of me. About a mile later, traffic slowed to a crawl due to an accident. The tailgater had plowed into the back of a minivan. And I can tell you it brought a simile to my facing knowing the damage to the Benz far exceeded the car's value. Poetic justice no doubt about it.

In my advancing years I've found nothing, NOTHING, more enjoyable than stitching together long strings of random curses, with the occasional rejoinder like 'head', 'knocker' or 'galloping" peppered in for flavor.

Every once in a while the Random Curse Generator Function goes haywire and I wind up spitting out the same words two or three times in a row (e.g. "CHOKE ON TURKEY S***, YOU GALLOPING F*** F***!!!"). Which is about when my wife gives me that look... the one meant to remind me how much better she could have done in life...

I rarely do this little proverbial dance out of anger, I think it's more to amuse myself; to meet the challenge of coming up with something completely unique, refreshing, and new, yet deeply offensive. Sort of like the old comedians' joke, The Aristocrats.


You did ask.

My current daily driver is the black 99 Jeep Wrangler with a cracked exhaust header.

I stand my ground with dopey drivers hoping to see my tires rub their mirrors off.

If they are really annoying I get beside them hit the gas and then gear down and coast so a nice throaty rumble and backfire are emitted.

They respond as if someone was shooting at them with a shot gun and their attitude changes to much more conservative in a heart beat. Scares the crap out of them I think.

I have observed that most of these dummies are cell phoning, arguing with a passenger or trying to beat the kids in the back seat into submission.

You have feel a little sorry for them as you know that Darwin will pick them off before they ever get old enough to enjoy a Porsche of their own.

I usually laugh instead of curse, but it sure is fun to string together some curses and try to be original each time. I try adding a southern drawl if I cant be original with the words.

One time (parked) I released some tension by doing the curse thing and using the free Songify App on my iPhone to turn it in to a song. I was laughing so hard at the resulting song I could not drive for a few minutes more.

I highly recommend it, hilarious to the nth degree and gets the good endorphins really flowing.

Johnny Danger 05-14-2012 04:06 PM

Hmm... Swearing with the Stars . It could work !

recycledsixtie 05-14-2012 04:13 PM

I don't like to swear at all.If I do it is in my car and nobody hears it but could read my lips. If I hear somebody swearing, I consider them subhuman and ignore them. Not worth talking to.

RandallNeighbour 05-14-2012 04:26 PM

For some reason poor, discourteous drivers around me doesn't make me swear. I expect nothing more from them than overt stupidity and they consistently deliver.

I do swear when I stop thinking about what I'm saying and I'm excited, but I do wish I could better control my tongue.

But I totally understand the feeling of cutting loose with a string of four letter words now and again to blow off steam. Alone in a car is probably the best place to do it, but only if you leave your handgun at home :)

I enjoying f****** more than swearing.

Hey Ho Buffalo! From CNY to your blog, you need new ideas on how to cuss? Go to the source, oh and it's "Valby" or Dr. Dirty in case you want to hear more of his gems.

F#*&^!#*+&*^ only when I drive around idiots who are being entertained by other things going on in their car. Phone and texting is my biggest gripe.:troll:

I seldom curse at strangers, but I was giving a ride to a friend of mine, touring her snooty golf course neighborhood. I was in 2nd gear, idling at about 18 in a 20 mph zone. A kid on a bike was in the other lane, and I was well aware of him, and then saw a lady in her yard giving me the slow-down sign. I indicated to her my speedometer, and then she gave me a dirty look and waved her hands in the air.

That did it for me somehow. The top was down and I yelled; "I'm doing 20, B****!" She dropped the hose she had in her hand, and stood there open-mouthed. My passenger was laughing hysterically. I dropped her off and went out of the neighborhood to drive home. I had to go by the same house, and the lady was talking to her husband out in the yard. She saw me and started pointing at me.

There's a highway leading out of the area, and it was all I could do to refrain from flooring it and letting them know what speeding was.

Awesome! 30 years ago I had a friend that lived with her parents in a "golf-course" neighborhood. she had an old '60s truck that sat out in front of their house. Several members of the community complained about it. She got rid of the old truck. She bought a really cool old hearse to replace it instead. Funny. Every time I see one of those neighborhoods I have this urge to ride a dirt bike through it.
