Just stop it.
Are you speaking for everyone? I highly doubt it.

If my "asterisk language" offends anyone, then I apologize. I thought this was a place I could sit back, relax and debate about things in a casual setting. Didn't know it was very professional here.

Exactly.

A quote I've long believed in...

"Profanity is the attempt of a lazy and feeble mind to express itself forcefully."

Welcome to growing up in a Naval Household & aboard ship!!!!

Try watching the unedited version of the movie "Robocop" & playing a drinking game where whenever a colorful metaphor (asterik language) is used you down a shot.

Concerning the OP, at least still wanting & willing to learn.

Like I learned, I'll just let loose balls be from now on LMAO
