Totally Sworn Off Swearing

(Although I am 22 and nothing in my upbringing prevents me from swearing, I have a habit of using G-rated alternatives, much to the amusement of my friends and family. At this moment, I am searching for a specific type of paint in my family’s crafting supplies.)

Me: “Hey, Mom, have you seen the glitter spray paint recently?”

Mom: “Last I saw, it was in one of the buckets on the top shelf.”

Me: “I’ve searched those for the better part of a half hour now!” *flings hands into the air, pointing to the top shelf* “I give up on you, bucket!”

Mom: *stares at me*

Me: “What?”

Mom: “Sorry, I thought for a second my adult daughter finally progressed to PG-13 language. My bad.”
