When I left the military I pretty much had to deprogram, it was equivalent to quiting smoking. Now the only time I really swear is when I'm angry, or drunk. However the only place that I use substitute words or censor words is on this board.

I always think it is cute when civies talk about how bad their swearing is.
I refuse to believe there is a community that swears more than the military. My cousin's husband was in and whenever we get together and have too many beers we both slip back into it. The first time my kids just started at me.....
