And something else
Jul. 27th, 2009 12:03 amI've noticed that my pattern of cursing changed in England. Before I went, I was saying "Fuck" and "shit" and "hell" more than anything else, when I needed a four--letter word - with an occasionally "bloody fucking hell" for more extreme emphasis.
But in England? Apparently my cursing choices are influenced by company, because I'm now saying "Bugger" and "Jesus fuck" more than before. Instead of the other words.
Language is a funny thing. So're people.
