I bet that’s how they invented the mammogram! Lol”

That’s pretty funny and unfortunately true. I remember my mom would never ever say anything at all racy or off color. We had a bunch of calves that we had to feed every morning from a bucket that had a nipple protruding out the bottom. She always called it a “dinner bucket”. When we were out of her hearing range, we kids called it what it was!

My grandson has come to understand that I sometimes use what my son calls “grandma language”. Just part of being around older people - we often tend to call it what it is without all the PC or sugar coating.

Yep. My parents had a nickel "cuss jar." But they were both so Scottish and tight with a penny, they avoided having to put any nickels in by just not cussing. I think the worst thing I ever heard either parent say was when my brothers and I were horsing around after many hours in the back seat of the car on a cross-country trip, Dad said, "Quit farting around back there!" Pandemonium after that shocking remark!

Sure! We had a dear friend who had grown up in Vermont, in hard times even when he was a boy. He would say things without ill intent, and it was taken that way, although I'd have to suppress a giggle or two. He was considerably older than my Dad, but they had worked together at one time, were history nuts, and thus stayed friends throughout the years. He was a treasure, with a lot of wisdom, and I enjoyed his company, too!

My folks never would speak off-color either- in English! Italian, well, that was a different matter, lol!

God bless you!
