yes. About 6 months ago I tried to go cold turkey. Didn't work.

I almost never use profanity around other people, however. Just when I'm alone and I'm pissed off at something. If I die in a computer game, of course I'm going to cuss.

Or driving...

I find this is a happy medium. If I don't cuss around other people, I don't have to worry about cussing accidently at work. Which could get me fired or in trouble for sexual harrassment. Yes I have gotten in trouble for using the F word at work. Even though the context in which I used the F word was not sexual in nature, I was told it was still possible sexual harrassment because I used it towards a woman. I had to sign a write up for using that word.
