I didn’t say a curse word til I got indoctrinated by the heathens in college. But even today, cursing will create uncomfortable silences, and if close enough to an old-timer, a slap.My great grandmother went to a church that "spoke in tongues". She was a pretty bad a** lady, i never saw her speak in tongues though. Gave me my fist air rifle as a kid when I wasnt allowed to have one at home. Also always had Neapolitan at the ready. Allowed me to say god dangit, which was not allowed in my half methodist/catholic upbringing.
Im going to have to stand up for tongue speakers here. lol
