You know you curse too much when your Japanese friends comment on it. When someone whose native language is not English notes that you have a pottymouth, it's time to take notice. I kind of knew this already, but it didn't jump to the forefront of my mind until last night, when I was in a bad mood (due to a seriously crappy bout of Japanese cold/flu) and trying desperately to open a rather stubborn package of ice cream. I said to it:
"... fuckin get the fuck open already!"
As if by magic, it opened. This just goes to show that swearwords really do make things work better.
Regardless, who was it that hired me as an English teacher again ... ?

ahh the good old days, when on a nice day at College Court, if you listened really close you could hear emanating out of an open window "GOD FUCKING DAMN YOU RICH AND YOUR FUCKING RAIL GUN!!!"
