Personal Record of Swearing

I swear, I swear.

I’m not sensitive to swearing. I was once warned that I’m about to meet people who can swear every after two words; and I said I’m totally fine with it. Swear all they want, it’s not me attracting the bad impression. I swear too, like the time a thumb was stapled on the desk. It’s not my thumb, but seeing it is nasty. I encourage you to utter your favorite curse word/s when in pain because it reduces the pain itself and increases your tolerance, said the psychologist Richard Stephens in a new study.

Swearing is an avenue to express your right brain’s creativeness. People combine swear words and make up their own. I have a bilingual swear that is well above innovation. I’m reserving it for an intense occasion.

Swearing has extents. I don’t foresee myself not enjoying real passionate and powerful swearing of other people. It amazes me how our mouths can think, before the brain realizes the curse is already articulated. However, it is not cool to swear in front of children. Children can learn via modeling, and you know the words that are easy to pick up – mom, hi, f*ck. Although they will learn these words soon as they grow, don’t let them encounter it early at home.

Some people can contain swears in their thoughts. That may be better to just think it than say in front of undesirable audience. I think there are also people who don’t swear verbally, but in their minds it’s a mayhem. I’m the person who just says it whenever the need arises.

When are the times you swear the most passionately?

World’s Worst Acronyms

Acronyms made our life’s verbal aspect easier, but you’ll frown at this list!

I’m thankful for the invention of it. I can breath smoothly while talking because there’s no need for me to say ‘National Aeronautics and Space Administration’; I’ll just mouth NASA. It’s more convenient and safe too, especially when in conversation about a person in the vicinity. It would mean no harm if I say TBT than ‘That Bastard There’ or ‘TIIC’ than ‘Those Idiots in Charge’.

I could use acronyms to score a girl by pulling out pawns like HOLLAND, which meant ‘Hope Our Love Lasts And Never Dies’ – touchdown! Asia will do fine as well, like INDIA, which meant ‘I Nearly Died In Adoration’; or I could jump in Africa, like EGYPT, which meant ‘Everything’s Great, You Pretty Thing!’. Okay, let’s stop this continental atrocity.

FBI, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, always appear to me as a cool word. YOLO is nice too, ‘You Only Live Once’. But regardless of the meaning of an acronym, some of it just sound damn great and appropriate, but not the list below. I scraped the internet for the worst acronyms ever created. Here they are:

Acronym: ASOL
Meaning: The American Symphony Orchestras League
Side comment: It’s just that, it sounds like you know what hole.

Acronym: STUPID
Meaning: St. Thomas University of Public International Diplomacy
Side comment: I feel so sorry for the university, such an irony to be called stupid.

Acronym: MANPADS
Meaning: Man-portable air-defense systems
Side comment: This is effin’ hilarious!

Acronym: ASS
Meaning: American Society of Scotts
Side comment: I imagined it how the man would say “Hi, I’m the president of ASS”.

Acronym: PUMCODOXPURSACOMLOPOLAR
Meaning: Pulse Modulated Coherent Doppler-Effect X-Band Pulse-Repetition Synthetic-Array Pulse Compression Side Lobe Planar Array
Side comment: If I ever need to use this in a sentence (don’t think it’ll happen), I’ll refer you as ‘that thingy’.
