Ebbie, I was just going to post the same story -- you beat me to it.

Some people have really prissy attitudes towards "questionable" language. And even I had to watch my vocabulary when I was in retail positions or substitute teaching.

But otherwise my vocabulary is as extensive as Charmion's and I don't hesitate to use it...most of the time. I rein it in when in conversation a few of my friends who find it offensive, but in general I'm a "classy lady who uses 'fuck' a lot".

Sometimes to keep from offending tender ears I'll use the word in another language. So I'd like to point out that if you hear me utter what sounds like "shit", I'm actually saying it in Norwegian. (Skitt)
