    The idea was to chew once for every tooth. (Me, I’ll have to chew each bite 28 times.)

    Hey! I minored in cursing in undergraduate. I knew it would come in handy.

    You can use any word even made up words. You certainly don’t have to use any of the 7 deadly words.

    Cursive is becoming a lost art. It is not being taught in quite a few schools. Thank the computer and especially, the cell phone.

    I saw an episode of “The Bob Newhart Show” where he chewed every mouthful 32 times. His wife couldn’t understand it. One of my favorite series.

    I notice that whenever people quote the study on cursing, they fail to add that for people who use profanity regularly, cursing has no effect on pain relief.

    Just like pharmaceuticals, your body develops a tolerance to profanity. How poetic.

    Interesting coincidence. I chew each meal about 32 times.

    If I chewed my food that many times, I’d die —of boredom. He may be out of shape, but his jaw muscles must be jn tip-top condition!

    My advice: Try scat singing instead of swearing.

    Mythbusters did a study on the cursing to kill pain. It was busted.
