Have you ever tied to cut it out or calm it down a little.
I was at a restaurant where some dude was talking all loud and every other word was F***. And not even caring that everyone in the whole place could here him. And he wasn't even mad, only joking and laughing. Apparently he just thought he sounded "super cool".
He actually just sounded like an idiot.

keep this light and silly. Anyone giving vulgar responses will be reported on - even if just merely suggested along the "F" word or taking God's name in Vain or body parts with symbols thrown in to mask the actual word.

This is just for fun to see what silly words we grew up with to express anger or a mistake....

My examples:
Boo-boo
"Oh boy, Almond Joy"
Fiddlesticks
"Hell's Bells"
"I'll be a monkey's uncle"

So on & so on.
Have fun, and the cutest, most unique or longest list of adjectives will get the 10 points!

Does it bother you when people use the word "very"? To me, using "very" just cheapens the word following it. If you say "very hot" why can't you just say "hot"? Hot is HOT. Like just being hot is not good enough it has to be very hot?

You don't only have to use hot, you can have any word following it, it just seems to me that words are loosing their powers with this stupid lead in to the real word.

Okay I'm editing a document that I did not write... and I'm a little confused with this sentence:

"And the healthcare provider’s office, laboratories, public health departments, and the abundance of other components that make up the healthcare system are vital to a health community."

I understand what it is saying, but I can't figure out how to put it coherently.

Any help with REWORDING that sentence?

"I need Mariah?"

Is that a bad way of asking for her?

I have a studdering problem and I cant say anything else but that without studdering I already tried asking "Is Mariah there?" but I kept studdering...and everyting else..

so is saying "I need Mariah" a bad way of putting it?
