As the man's lawyer implies, most swear words really have lost their meaning. They're just expletives at best conveying anger and ignorance.

Like how smart is "cold as hell"? "It sucks"? Are we talking vacuum cleaners? Why would we say or sign "fornicate you" to someone we didn't like?

The ignorance factor really shows when we curse out people who carry nightsticks, mace, tasers, and guns. Ha ha ha.

I've heard of people who spend thousands of dollars in court/legal fees just to fight out of a ticket that was under $100.

I think what he really needs is to take anger management courses.

I thought the same thing this man would be furious over five dollars. I agree with Angel, he needs some anger management classes.

He would have done a better job if he was that furious, to just walk in and gave them five dollars in PENNIES.. LOL I have seen someone pay their taxes in pennies to show their gratitude.

A friend of mine received a letter from the neighboring state's police. Apparently, one of those cameras caught him either speeding or running a red light. The odd thing was that they didn't send the actual ticket . . . just sent a photocopy of it.

So, in turn, my friend photocopied the money and sent it in reply.

We recently had a young woman visit us from Germany. Apparently a
four letter word of the f type is so common over there that young
people use it simply as an exclamation. We got so embarrassed at
a church potluck, while we are eating, this young girl was listening
to someone telling some story and she stops and says, "Wow! F**k"
I was torn between laughing at the old ladies who just sat and stared
with their mouths wide open or laughing at the men who had such
odd looks on their faces that I can't even describe it. I did explain it
to her later on so now she substitutes the word, "awsome"...at least
when she is in church

Upset over that $5 ? Europeans would faint when they learn about this article here. $5 ?????????????? for fine parking ticket...

Why? because we Europeans pay parking ticket between €20 ($29) within 3 minutes late parking with no complaint because we accept our responsiblity since we know traffic rule...

No way, please don't like that.

You will be charged with court fine, that combined with parking ticket then that means you have little or no money from your pocket, your pocket would say thanks if you paid parking ticket without any cussing word.

I forget where, within this forum, there was an ageist comment about interest vs. principle.

Anyone care to refresh my memory?

Just kidding. I won't do that. I won't use with a profanity on the check. Because I don't want to pay for court cost because it may be expensive for us. Yikes.
