So, today I was thinking about how different Craig and I are at sporting events. He’s very kind, and supportive. I on the other hand, yell, criticize, and get very loud. One of the things that he will say, “Good job guys, you’ll get it next time!”. One of the things I will say, “Goddamnit what the hell is wrong with you?” Then Craig will reply with, “It’s gonna be ok, they messed up, they’ll fix it.” I’ll retort with something cynical of course.
His language is very interesting puerile. I say “crap” and “shit”. And he says “poop”. He says “bless me” if he drops something or scares himself, or “bless you” if I do the same. He says “bootay” and I say “ass” or “booty”. My language is a different kind of puerile.
Xander thinks it’s funny that Craig won’t cuss, and begs him to try it sometimes.
I’ve touched this topic a little bit before, explaining the difference with words that could be perceived as religious. However, why are members of the LDS church taught that cussing is bad? Why is it bad at all? Like? It’s not just the lds religion that teaches that… why are lots of people brought up with those words being considered bad? Why do we give those words, that kind of power? And, on the flip side… it’s super weird to have a husband that says words that my 8 yr old has grown out of. I tell him he sounds stupid… and he spells it out because s.t.u.p.i.d is a bad word to him.
Anyway, this isn’t a very long post but it’s been a while since I’ve posted so I figured I would ease back into it. Have a good night everyone!
