Cuss the Cussing Cussers

Something that I've noticed over the past couple days is that the rate at which I swear has jumped up at an alarming rate. Now why this is, I'm not quite sure, however when I pointed it out Josh said that it might be because I am not playing WoW anymore. Now let me explain that remark by stating that although WoW is a fun game, it is also a very social game and thus my interactions with other random people is a bit more frequent. Said people aren't necessarily the brightest, and by not the brightest I mean in the sense of everybody thinks that they are the shit and that they could never be wrong and anything that goes wrong could never be their fault. These types of people, just as in real life, irritate me to an extreme. And when I say to an extreme I mean that I have scrub moments of reaching through my computer and punching them in the face. As a consequence, as an outlet for my anger, I tend to cuss. A lot. Thus the statement about me not playing WoW. Now obviously there's an flaw within my logic in that since I no longer play WoW I don't have to deal with those frustrations anymore. I say to you nay. That is not the case, in fact it is quite the opposite. You see, not spending my free time in WoW's virtual playground means that I have to deal real people who are irritating. However, unlike before there is currently no where for me to vent my nerdrage and thus I find the logic of my not playing WoW being related to my increase in casual cussing to be sound and valid. Now then, obviously this is not a good thing as swearing is offense (especially in the presence of a Lady) and does nothing as far as giving my intellect any sort of real boost. Thus I've decided that I would like to decrease the amount of cussing that I tend to do to a more reasonable level, namely to where it was before in the very least if not better. Now this is where you, my wonderful readers, come in. I would like to request that those of you who are readers, should your memory permit, to assist me in getting over this bad little habit of mine henceforth. Now if you are female, feel free to slap me if you so desire (gently please) and if you are a guy a punch to the arm will do (again, gently), however the most preferential method would be a simple reminder, but whatever floats your boat. I do appreciate the help everyone! (This is actually a pretty effective method, I tried it in high school when my swearing got out of hand and got over it in a week. Although, I did have one girl that would actually smack me when I did swear around her, I'd say that accelerated the process a bit.)
