          I appreciated it, anyway. Love getting hassled for trying to raise the level even one tiny bit. Que sera sera.

          DID YOU KNOW YOU CAN CURSE ON THIS THING

          Uh, yeah. Yes.

            It’s obvious he was saying “shit.” Nobody was fooled. No class was gained.

            If you don’t want to say “shit,” just don’t say it. It’s ridiculous to pretend you’re not saying it when typing out all but one letter. Nothing is gained.

            • I completely agree, which is why I don’t swear in public or on the Internet. I also don’t mind when others do. But trying to semi-censor yourself just calls more attention to the curse than your actual message, which is worse for everyone.

              I’m not going to swear, but you go ahead if you want, and hopefully we can get on with addressing the content of each other’s points.

              It’s a losing fight, but I’ll keep fighting it anyway while I’m on the can.

      Are these news articles? Or are they opinions or editorials? Big difference.
