Message: <blockquote data-quote="Rove" data-source="post: 73257" data-attributes="member: 100">Reminds of a situation when I began work at my current place. Sitting quietly in the tea-room reading my newspaper two elderly ladies (both close friends now) sat down and began to speak. Well, the language coming out of their mouths would make a sailor blush. Now before I continue I'm no prude but I was raised never EVER swear in the company of women. As I sat there absorbing the colorful dialogue one of them happened to catch my astonishment. She asked, "What's wrong?" I replied, "I wasn't expecting such language from two lovely ladies." I think my innocent remark changed their behavior as they rarely swore after this point. Another occasion called for me to throw the Oxford Dictionary at my younger brother. Obviously spending far too much time with his mates he sat at my place one day and every second word was "f". When he asked what the dictionary was for I said your language skills shows lack of education and pure laziness. Start using some descriptive words to present your argument. That shut him up.</blockquote>
