Have you ever said an ephithet under your breath in earshot of someone else?

Question

including gay. lesbian, f_g, dyke, weird, -anything negatively directed against someone?
I know people who have done this who are otherwise 'nice' people and it always made me wonder what prompted them to do this- any feedback is appreciated. Thanks

Answer 1

It's called venting. You don't really want to hurt that particular person's feelings, but you need to blow off a certain amount of frustration.

And no, I've never done that. I tend more to tell people exactly what I think, without the pc crap.

Answer 2

I try not to do that even when they can't hear. I try to focus my annoyance or anger to what is real, like their stupidity, or rudeness or whatever is really bothering me.

Answer 3

You mean if I've thought aloud to myself, "What a stupid f-ucking idiot. I wish I could bash his head into my fist." You mean like that?

No, never.

Answer 4
