Is society, in general, becoming TOO tolerant?

[Misty]

Well, as a retired school teacher, if I am on a train and some people are swearing at the top of their voices nearby, I use my teacher voice to tell them to lower their voices because the rest of us aren't appreciating the conversation. I find that it works.

Good for you, Warrigal!

Whenever "white clothing" is mentioned I always think of both John Travolta and Pat Boone.

I have some strange dreams ...

Remember Pat Boone's "A White Sport Coat" ?? That was a cool song. John Travolta and Elvis could wear white any season as far as I'm concerned. layful:

Hey, I rock metallic gold cowboy boots, and purple velvet doc martens, so white clothes in winter is a no brainer. Lolololol.

We have to acknowledge, whether we like it or not, such words are used in everyday conversation by some people, and not necessarily in a hostile way. I've used questionable verbs and adjectives myself, but I would always watch my language in public, around my elders or children. Like Warrigal said, if I was on a public train, my voice would be low if using any words that may offend others.
