I used to work with a guy who was very religious and would freak out whenever someone used the lord's name in vain. There was no way you would ever hear him swear. Over time I think we must have ground him down to the point where one day he just snapped and had a massive outburst where he would be f'ing and blinding like the worst of us. It was akin to the scenes you see in films where the record abruptly stops playing, everyone goes quiet and the waitress drops all the glasses on the floor.




to admit this, but I didn't know how rude it was until I was in my 40s. I'd been using the word in all sorts of inappropriate circumstances by then. 
It's a shame, because the girls would usually use the more offensive word. I would have praised her for using "freaking" instead.
