When I was about 10, I got my first tiny tiny tv in my room. Me and a friend were watching it one morning and it was the Jerry Springer Show and we were hooked! (I know! It was bad to watch that junk so young). After we saw like 5 episodes we would tie our shirts up all slutty and say every cuss word there was because we seriously thought it was cool. But we never did it in front of anyone but the two of us!

That people became mute because they said too many bad words

I used to believe that if you spelled the swear words, it wasn't the same as saying them. I assumed it "didn't count". But just to make sure, I hid under my bed when I said them.

I believed that "shut up" was cussing so i said it 1 million times

Kyla

my cousin believes "brat" is a curse word (she's 5)
when we were at our grandma's,my brother called someone a brat,and she went up and told me that my brother had just called someone "a very bad word" ha ha

This guy I knew used to think that sticking his first finger up was a swear word. So whenever he used to think he was bad, he used to go around sticking his first finger up...Rebel lol!!

First finger badass

When I was about 4 and in pre-school, I didn't know how to say "truck" and would say it as "fuck." Well, every Friday my grandpop would pick me up from school and I would stay at my grandparents house for the weekend. Everytime it was dismissal and everyone would go outside to go home, I would see my grandpop's truck and yell excitedly, "Papa's fuck! Papa's fuck!" Everyone would CRACK up. I mean, I didn't know any better. And better yet, my grandpop had those roll-up handles to close the windows and since I a little too young to operate those rolling handles, instead of saying something like, "close the truck's window" I would say "Fuck the window."

Kids will be kids!

I used to believe around age four that if I were to say a bad word in my mind (think it) that my parents would magically find out and punish me for it.

I once was playing a computer game (Monkey Island 2) that displayed text whenever a character said something. At one point in the game, the character said "Do you know how many times a DAY I have to hear about the d*** stump joke?"

One of my sister's friends then said "Oh! he just said the 'D' word!"

Seeing as it was in all caps, I assumed "day" was the D word that had been said.

For weeks later, I thought "day" was a curse

I thought that since putting up the middle finger meant "Fuck you" I thought that the other fingers meant other swears...

When I was in preschool, we were taught that "stupid" and "shut up" were the absolute worst things anyone could possibly say. Worse than any swear words. I, being an antisocial little brat, often found a need to use "stupid" in particular. It got me in trouble until I switched to saying, "You are so stu...bborn." I figured I'd just made up the word "stubborn" (which I technically did, because I'd never heard anyone else say it), and thought no one else knew what it meant.

I completely freaked out when I saw a book with the exact title "You are so stubborn" in a store.

Still a Stubborn Brat

when i was in third grade i was writing my homework in my agenda and instead of writing work sheet, i wrote work sh**! when my mom was looking at my paper she said honey, did u write this! I started laughing and saying oops, work s***! i said it like 5 times! My mom said it was a very bad word and not to use it! lol

I used to believe that if you spelled the curse word it didn't count. But only because my mom did it first. ^_-

One time when I was little, my middle finger hurt. I told my mom, "My Finger hurts!" She took my index finger in her hand and said, "Is it this one?" I said "No! Its this one!" I then flipped her off, but I didn't know that it was bad. She said, "You're not supposed to do that! Bad girls do that!" I then ran off sobbing because I thought I had committed the biggest sin in the entire world!

When I was two years old, I was having ice cream with my family at some reunion or something. Everyone noticed that I'd stopped eating the ice cream and had been sitting-- for a good 5 minutes-- scowling into my bowl.

"Kelly, what's wrong?" my mom asked.

"Well," I said, "This bug in my ice cream is fucking with me."
