Then again, I almost never curse.

I am the same way Xantar. However, there have been situations with certain people where I feel the best way to express myself would be to use one of those words. However, I still don't. I often think it though.
Those words are however becoming so acceptable in our culture that they are beginning to become more ingrained in my mind and it is starting to become difficult to not say them and I can see it becoming even more of a problem for me in the future as I begin to hear the words more and more often.
What do you think of this? What do you guys feel are "appropriate" situations? Are these words becoming such a concrete part of our culture that in the future it will be difficult to avoid using them? Already some television and radio shows allow the use of a** whereas before I would never hear that word on TV. What are your opinions?
