What The F**k

I have been criticized for the amount I swear, which is quite a bit, especially when I'm frustrated or I get angry. I don't normally get angry at people, I get angry when something isn't going well, like fixing a car or doing a renovation.  I do swear in my normal conversation because it is the type of work I do and the people I work with swear all the time.  The interesting thing is I don't feel stressed out at all, most of the time.

I feel calm and collected almost all the time and I can think past problems to find a solution.  Why do you think that is?

Swearing relieves tension, it gives an instant release to any built up anger or frustration. It is a lot better than breaking or punching something and for the most part is completely harmless.  There have been proven studies to back up this claim.  http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20160303-the-surprising-benefits-of-swearing

Non swearing people get offended when you curse around them and it seems to me that they think you will somehow corrupt them with your vulgarities.  I do have a filter on my tongue and try not to blurt out profanities around strangers.

I have been trying to write these articles of my thoughts everyday, and sometimes it is hard to come up with a theme, it's also hard not to go on a complete tangent of cursing about the topic I'm writing about, I want anybody to be able to read it.  After writing this though I might dedicate a day of curse infused banter, maybe Sundays?
