  Speaker 1: not say yes sir or yes am, yeah, I would

  Speaker 1: to it.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah.

  Speaker 3: We were not allowed to say shut up, so we
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: would say cut up. We might have part of stupid
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: that we would say cut up up.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: People do that on social media these days too, because
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: they're filters, automatic AI filters with words that you can't say,

  Speaker 3: it's just one different letter, yeah, and she's like, no,
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: that does not sound much.
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: Another word that mom like we could not say was
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: was fart. I mean because I passed gas to her death.
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: So funny because one time Dad was making fun of

  Speaker 2: her and he said we were all making fun of
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: her about not being able to say the you know,
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: the the fart word, and he said, just say it,
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: Barbara saying it, and she was like fun and we died,
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: like she goes fine, she couldn't say it. She could
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: not say the word. So that was one, and we
• 2:21
  Speaker 2: couldn't say anything disrespectful like to adults especially. Yeah, that
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: was that was.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: It wasn't so much what you said, is how you said.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: That's that was the thing. My mom would say all
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: the time. It's not so much what you said, it's
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: how you said it.
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: H tone, yeah, tone.
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: And I always thought, well, what you just said to me,
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: okay or whatever.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: I was gonna say when you said you weren't allowed
• 2:41
  Speaker 2: to say cuss words. Your mom, Mama par she has
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: a way of saying the perfect cuss words at the
• 2:48
  Speaker 2: perfect time. And it's like the way she does it
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: is like you're like, because she says very like put
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: together together woman. She's like, you know, she's a farm
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: wife's wife.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Yeah, who knows how to fight for her kids.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: She might have everything. And then she'll say one day
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: we were talking and she couldn't find something. She went
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: f me. But it was I was like, Mama, pa,
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: would you say? And you know, it's like, it's so
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: it's so cute when it's on for whatever reason. It's
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: cute when someone like that as irreverent humor and and
• 3:24
  Speaker 2: you're not expecting it. But yeah, we definitely could not cuss,
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: and I wouldn't allow my children to cuss when they
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: were growing up.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm fluent in all
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: the cuss words. I've created some of my own, and
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: they're very good.
• 3:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, we couldn't say, but we had to say the
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: bottom behind.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: Yeah, think about my own kids. I had to Shane
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: when she was forbidden to cross her eyes at me,
• 3:46
  Speaker 3: because that was her way of saying. You know, like
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: in the in the show, yeah, the TV show The Friends,
• 3:54
  Speaker 3: they would do the thing with the Hanes. Well, Shane's
• 3:57
  Speaker 3: way of saying to me was to cross her eyes
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: at me.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Really, how'd you know that that was?
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: That was her middle face.
• 4:04
  Speaker 3: If I'd gotten to her and she just crossed her eyes,
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: and she do that little face while she's crossing her eyes,
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: and it would go Okay.

  Speaker 2: and the teacher heard this, and she was a great teacher,
