when i was very young and learning to talk, i just repeated everything people said around me. My parents were usually pretty careful about what they said when i was present, but once we were in the car and someone cut in front of us or something, and my dad said "Oh, damn it!" And then of course my mum and dad could hear from the back seat "Damn it! Damn it!"
To this day, whenever i am at a family gathering with my parent and someone says damn, they just HAVE to tell the story.
