And by the way, I want to say to Mercedes: I am sorry your pal Bassador put you in the "lime light". It was absolutely unnecessary an uncalled for... I have no problem with you at that present moment and I mean it!
Ten_of_cupss: No, no, no, your post is pointing that you are very selective on seeing the hypocrisy... I don't want to discuss Mercedes, sh knows well what I am talking about. Waste an hour of your time and go through her thread, you will find plenty of mocking and insulting going on behind people's back. So, spare me your rubbish...
Please don’t use my posts to further your agenda against Mercedes or anyone else. She is well liked by many on CS, including me – even though I don’t always agree with her. I used that as an example of the OP's past behaviour towards people because it was the one I remembered. If someone posts a comment about another person on a public forum, how is that going behind that person’s back? The person can refute the post at any time. If I had posted that the Op makes disparaging comments about England, would you have started your rant about past history? Probably. You’re allowing your dislike for Merc to blind you to the fact that you’re playing right into the Op’s hands. Well done you!

I said what I had to say. You brought up Mercedes in the picture, who knows why. It is not my personal dislike and I am not the only one who has been insulted frequently. Before you speak about someone have the decency to do know what you are talking about. There is a thread about potty mouthed people and we all give opinion. I didn't make it personal, you did... Fact!

You're right. I shouldn't have included another member's name and I apologize to Mercedes for that.
Weirdly enough I never swear in Spanish, my mother tongue because we never swore at home (apart from my Dad) and so expressing myself with swear words is not part of what I do in Spanish. And so when the occasion warrants such language (in my opinion) I usually swear in French, my 2nd language or English, my 3rd language! In French my swearing is a bit more limited than in English. My husband had a colourful language when he was pissed off and so I have a rather varied list to pick from in English. I was a very good student at picking up new vocabulary
I don't see any language as a difficulty though sometimes I may require a translation. Being a potty mouth isn't quite the same thing as trashing others and I'm curious why it is posted this way? Nah I'm not that curious.
For me there is nothing more delicious than a decently fed potty mouth moment where body parts become throbbing living creatures in and of themselves. I feel inclined to be very potty mouth right now but I'll spare you all the joy of that moment.

There are no swear words in the Welsh language, although some English insults can be translated. It's like defamation by Google translate.
I like English swear words for their complexity, versatilty and nuance. Swearing in German can be emotionally evocative and cathartic; gutteral utterances that originate in your boots.
Being shocked, or disturbed by a word on the basis of convention, is not the same as finding a word unacceptible because of it's context. I have a friend who likes to wind me up just to hear me caling him a baahstard in my posh, English accent, but I doubt anyone would like to hear me say it in anger.
ChesneyChrist: Some swearing is a nice contrast to the polite dalek sect. It can't just be standing on ceremony the whole time with swords that are all for backstabbing.
Yes we have noticed you don't swear We heard you from the cell block
Coldheaven: Just admit that everybody likes a potty mouth and you’ll be ok
Sure, next time I see you I'll potty mouth all over you. If you enjoy a potty mouth online you must enjoy all strangers' potty mouths too. how about meeting me in the hollywood casino at greektown detroit michigan and I'll potty mouth all over you while you sit and try and play at a blackjack table. Leave your boyfriends at home.
Bassador: The op seems to have forgotten the numerous times he joined forces with others in trashing Mercedes. What would your parents think of your shameful behaviour?
Deedee123x: Any update on how you're changing the world with all the great work you do??????? ........no?? ...shocking.
I considered whether or not to respond to this but given you have apparently taken interest in my career path previously, I thought it would be impolite not to.
As 2022 ticked over, I continued musing on the fact that I reach retirement age in December this year.
I was still finding my role in the disability sector very rewarding and had no concerns around job security.
As had happened on previous occasions, in March a team leader role became available within my organisation; I hadn't considered applying before as I was content with my role at the 'coalface'.
However this time I had a think about it and decided to apply, reasons being that I don't have to retire until I'm ready, also, fresh challenges can be invigorating and help to prevent burn out that you don't always see coming.
So since early April, I have been managing a team of eight (including three newbies) who perform the role that I had previously.
It's a whole lot of hard work lol but I absolutely adore it and still have regular F2F contact with the vulnerable people in my community

Happy days.
As I suspected, dangle the carrot and we get a novel.

I have a friend on fb who is far more refined than anyone here and every now and then she still catches me off guard with her random salty tongue when she is in the right mood.
