I think about these all the time, and want to share them with other Gaians. I dunno if it'll help. Nothing personal in here, just thoughts.
Swearing
Why do people swear? Do they think it's cool or something? Sure, it could be considered a way to vent your feelings, but really, it makes people seem more immature than they are (Ever notice how it's always the n00bs making insane comments riddled with curses?), and besides that, it annoying, distasteful, and blasphemous. So why do it?
Don't judge a book by its cover. Wait to see what it tastes like.
