Where firefighters come to talk training
Cussing: What in the Fark is wrong with it?
We all know its the unofficial language of firefighters. Why does a word offend anyway? And who in the corn ball crap decided to let the non cussers, the ultra higly offendable ones make the rules?
Mother Puss bucket, they even have done studies that people listen better when explatives are used. It's colorful, many times humorous. And Cheese and Rice, we all know good cussing is revered as an art form, and rightfully so.
So now if you don't respond, you my friend, are a lilly livered, pond scum wallowing, bull butter snivelling, dung heap!

Nothing is FUCKING wrong w/ it. Its all in how you use it and the inflection you put w/ it. Now for some reason management thinks we're suppose to be this "Patron of the community." They fail to remember that we are "BLUE COLLAR."

I too believe that a well placed "F" bomb helps with inflection and sometimes motivation, especially to those that seem to have more bone density in their heads and less gray matter. Like my esteemed colleage Mr. DePoto, I believe that we are in a blue collar job that is usually covered with the soot, tar and blood from trying to do the best job we can possibly do. If your virgin ears are offended, I apologize; but get the Fuck over it. Pond Scum? Ouch Mike....such language from you.....
