Want to answer more questions in the Miscellaneous category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Random Weirdos?
i know this is going to sound funny but me and my friends are playing this game: whenever we swear we have to add a dollar into a jar and record who has sweared and how much times. at the end of the month whoever has swore the least takes the money. u should try it.
tell me how it goes.

I feel ya. Good for you to want to try and stop! You just have to realize that it doesn't sound as cool as you initially think it does. A lot of times I'll hear people at school cussing who sound rather dumb and the stupidity of it seems a lot more obvious when you're hearing it from someone else. :)
Also, surround yourself with people who don't cuss. Kind of like trying to kick a drug habit or something ... you're more likely to fall back in if you're hanging around people who are doing it. Or challenge your friends to stop cussing with you, so you can hold each other accountable. Or you can reward yourself for every day you go without cussing. And remember, you don't hear lawyers or doctors or politicians cuss, so people with clean mouths make the most money. :)

I used to cuss alot, i still cuss, but not as much, but anyhow i started replacing cuss words with phrases that make no sense, like instead of f&*k, i would say somthing like "flipping fat man on a scooter" or instead of shit say "shitaki mushrooms on a sub sandwich". Wierd stuff like that, this advice will probably get rated like a two or somthing, but its what i do, and i hope it will work out.

I have a website for you. Hopefully some of the tips found there will help you. The only thing I might add is make up some really goofy word to use instead of the swear word. :)

haha, i have the same problem. i have two methods. try wearing a rubberband around your wrist so when you do cuss, snap yourself with the rubberband. you'll realize that cussing's just pointless.
the other method is something i got from a movie, haha. whenever you say f***, say crying out loud right after that. soon, you'll be saying for crying out loud. haha.
