Yes, kids=sponges=parrots. They repeat everything they hear sooner or later, usually at the worst time!

And please keep in mind that we all have a certain level of offensive.

True. I always talk about that, peoples levels of what they perceive to be bad vary. For instance, a girl that has had a great life and never suffered loss, heartache, or anything of the sort, would have a lower tolerance to things as compared to one that has been through hell. If she breaks a nail, it could be THE WORST thing that had ever happened to her in her life, causing an emotional outburst. That being said, I think that most of us are diligent about choosing our words. I know a couple of members have unintentionally gotten under my skin, (sorry Mattk and CaptTexas :P) but alot of it stems from the fact that WE ARE NOT FACE TO FACE, so any sarcasm is not detected without a smiley! Sure sometimes we will all get irked by someone on here, but it's probably not as warranted as first thought!
