> > I have no idea why I don't swear, in 6th grade when i was practiaclly the only person in my grade who hadn't started swearing (sheesh, my sister, who's in 6th grade says there's only one kid in her class that swears, but i'm not sure if I believe her) I decided not to do it, I don't know why, it just seemed to me that it took something away from a person when they started swearing. It's not like my parents have taught me that either, they both swear constantly, but i'm used to it. It isn't the swearing that gets me down, it's the starting... I really have no idea why, but a couple of my friends who i've kept from swearing for a really long time, have started, and it really made me feel bad. oh well.

Maybe it's because you are literate.
