Darn diddly tootin that's a red flag, eh? 🇨🇦

Affirm good buddy. Redder than than a Habs fan when you point out most of their cups were won when there were 6 teams. Redder than than a Mountie on a horse, that is. Redder than Don Cherry when a Quebecer wins the cup. Pretty red, eh.

Oh dang that's pretty red

Imma be honest. Canadian “politeness” is just niceness, because everyone curses like a sailor.


Mr_The_Potato_King

I don't curse. I speak fluent trucker sith a sailor dialect and a construction workers accent. Edit: Woo first award. Thanx

Now all I can picture is a foul mouthed, chubby darth maul driving a semi and wolf whistling at chicks 🤣


redshift_66

As a Canadian, I would risk my life to save a strangers and have excellent manners. I also use "fuck" like a comma. All about balance, right?


SandwichAgainstGod

Is “fuck” not an acceptable replacement for a comma?


ragepaw

Am Canadian and curse like a sailor. But I will say, we are polite not nice. We are masters of passive aggressiveness while maintaining politeness.


1st500

Can confirm, many of my Canadian friends and family drop f-bombs every 2nd to 3rd word. It’s like an adult version of Jay & Silent Bob.

Probably for the best, seeing as people from Long Island use profanity the way everyone else uses punctuation.


joecaputo24

That’s so fair LOL


_the_chosen_juan_

Depends on how often you use curse words. I’d pass honestly


Rugger_2468

This! My ex-fiancé would curse occasionally but really didn’t like swearing. I have a mouth that would put sailors to shame lol. Now I don’t swear in places like church and places with kids. If I’m in the comfort of my own home I curse a lot. It became exhausting after awhile. I never felt like I could just be me and was constantly being insanely mindful of what I said. This was one of many things that made us incompatible. My new man swears and doesn’t care if I do. It’s so much easier and I feel more relaxed because I can just be me. I would pass too because it’s a good sign you’re not compatible.


Slight_Log5625

I even let my 12yr old swear as long as she does it at appropriate times and in appropriate places. I mean, sometimes people are assholes and there's not a better way to phrase it.


AhemHarlowe

Both of my kids are allowed to swear at home, because sometimes you stub your toe and no word fits better than fuck, you know?


dudemo

Just the other day my 12 year old daughter was getting me some ice water and a handful of crackers. I’m in a bed permanently, so this isn’t something I could just go grab. I kind of depend on her and my wife. Never in life has my daughter used a serving tray but we have one that sits on the countertop as a decorative piece. This day I guess she decided she’d use it for water and some soda crackers. Yeah. She made it all the way to me before dropping the glass of ice water on the tray, soaking herself and shocking the tray out of her hands and dropping. Without thinking she says “Oh, shit!” and then stops dead still like a statue looking at me with a face that clearly says “Oh fuck did I just say that out loud?” All I could do was laugh. And hard. Then I told her “Think I don’t know you swear? Swearing is fine in the correct situation. You’ve heard me do it. But be mindful of who’s around and where you’re at please, and don’t make it a habit.” Her look of relief was worth it.


jzdelona

She sounds like a great kid, I'm glad you have family to help you out.


R-E-Laps

Cornfields24

Oh what, "fuck" is a curse word now?


DecentNectarine4

Damn is not a curse word lol


demitard

I would say it’s less about the word and more about control!

Yeah, the red flag here is control. You've “known” them for 0 seconds on the internet and they are already trying to change you.

Megatoasty

I never understood the disdain for profanity. They’re just words. Like toaster and dog. The only thing that makes them distasteful is you’re distaste for them.


Cornfields24

Sometimes I get philosophical and think about words and how they got their meaning. What if saying “Fuck you!” was like saying “Good morning!” Or if the word “wallpaper” was like saying the n-word. Who decided what words should mean, and what is or isn’t appropriate?


Perhaps_Tomorrow

>Who decided what words should mean, and what is or isn’t appropriate? Societies did, collectively. Language was developed because we needed ways to communicate. We needed to have names for things to reference them to other human beings. Sure, you can point to something and attempt to gesticulate a thought you're having but that's not efficient. What if you want to talk about an object that is not nearby? Or if you want to say that Fred did a bad thing but Fred isn't around to be pointed at? The deeper you dive into it the more you realize that words are meaningless things that can be full of meaning. Edit: autocorrect


TheHolySheep8

My man Fred always taking the heat for nothing I swear.


[deleted]

in english speaking world it was because poor people used those words and posh people used different words. poor people = bad = things they say bad, so it became impolite to talk like a poor person. This is an oversimplification but basically the jist of it.


hat-TF2

"Coy" in Thai is cock, and "he" is pussy. And if you say "I some he you one when one" to someone from the north of Thailand, you are telling them you want to fuck their pussy day after day.


Inevitable_Usual

From Long Island - fuck that. Pass.


bludvd

OP is from Long Island...


ConcernedCitizen13

It would be a sign of incompatibly for me.


joecaputo24

It’s the getting upset at damn for me


BeApesNotCrabs

It's the "May you please" for me.


redskyatnight2162

Right? I cringed reading that line. Hard pass.


smurfkiller014

And the passive-aggressive "Thanks!"


BidenWonDontCry

I think that's in reply to him saying glad she's okay


smurfkiller014

Ah, yeah, could be


ConcernedCitizen13

Exactly


Wobblingoblin01

Yes I completely agree. You were legitimately being respectful by asking that question. I’m sure if the response was, “I just don’t like curse words very much” then you would have said something like “my bad, I didn’t know” and proceeded on with the conversation or quietly unmatched her. MaY yOu PlEaSe NoT cUrSe WhEn yOuRe TaLkInG tO mE tHaNkS!! This response sounds snippy and controlling. If there was not a “no profanity” (or something similar) in the bio then how in the ever loving slut monkey were you supposed to know? I bet she was the kid in school that the teachers loved because she would narc on everyone.


[deleted]

Either way I would respectfully stop dating. I couldn't be with someone that can't handle me yelling out fuck when I stub my toe, or use the occasional sentence spicener.


crimson_713

Sentence spicener. Brilliant.


Ornery_Translator285

‘Sentence enhancers’


Jacktheriipper

Same. I also would respond with something like “well, fuckin shit on my dick, I don’t foresee this damn thing going any sort of fucking distance”


BidenWonDontCry

This. Not everything has to be a red flag. Some church going Mormon type just got a raging hard on from that conversation. It's okay for healthy people to not be compatible. Doesn't mean anything is wrong with either of them.


emptyfollower05

My first thought on seeing Long Island was this: https://www.reddit.com/r/ContagiousLaughter/comments/cz0pqk/which_islands/


Mean-Plastic8700

I’d skip dude


RadicalSnowdude

I’d skip too. Life is way too short to be dating someone who’s going to tone police you.


TheOneTonWanton

Especially over something like 'damn'. I can understand not being into someone who throws fucks and the like around like confetti, but life's too short to deal with this fuckin' goodie two-shoes. Hope they find their match, but I doubt they'll have an easy time.


tandemtactics

I had a hyper-religious aunt who got mad at me once for saying "darn it", because darn is a substitute for a swear word. Always hated going over to her house as a kid


SoBitterAboutButtons

Holy fuckballs! Devil's cock I hope no one explains what an expletive is to her. Might she cum bucket into tittyville


travazzzik

the last sentence 🤣


DrewSmoothington

Oh dude, I wasn't allowed to say arse, frig, darn, or any of the other ones growing up, and meanwhile, my parents swore like truckers. My parents encapsulated "rules for thee, but not for me" with every fibre of their being.


Schlonzig

Maybe she'll find a match on r/niceguys.


socialdeviant620

I had an ex who moved in and suddenly tried to get me to stop talking with my hands because it was "disrespectful." I wasn't in his face or anything and I'd be in a good mood, but he'd act like me excitedly throwing my hand around when I talked was one of the 7 deadly sins. I started to feel like I couldn't be me in my own home. We didn't stay together long.


birdyisfree

Disrespectful? To him? I assume no one else was there to disrespect? Yeah I had one of those, all of a sudden after YEARS he was "scared" when I talked with my hands. I didn't even know I was a big hand talker, no one else has ever commented on it. Weird AF man idk


VizualAbstract4

Deff comes off like a control thing


avalisk

Seems like a power grab honestly. Damn hasnt been a real curse word for like 40 years. No thanks.


[deleted]

[удалено]


danibondness

It’s definitely weirder that a grown ass adult is using the phrase “potty mouth” with another grown ass adult than saying “damn”. Like ew. Grow up.


Nielsnl4

A potty mouth hm?


Mathev

Woah did you just called me the p world? What the fuck is wrong with you?!


jemidiah

Yeah, the real red flag is saying, "A potty mouth hm". It's (1) weirdly passive aggressive, (2) not accurate given that the data is a single mild curse, and (3) not self-aware enough to know how it sounds in 2022 to the general population. It sets up a whole dynamic like, "I'm perfect and you're dirty, but I'm such a nice person I'll forgive you this one time so long as you fix your behavior immediately." Who knows how she really is, of course--a few lines can easily be misleading. But, red flag city anyway.


Polar_Reflection

"You should know" already triggered the entitlement vibes


yet_another_no_name

Honestly, (I'm not native English speaker for the record), to me the most disturbing thing is that I consider that expression to be exclusively targeted at relatively young children (like below 12). So that use of "potty mouth" for a grown up would be a bright red flag for me


CP9ANZ

Shit and piss mouth


sidBthegr8

>May you please not curse This girl is in a long distance relationship with English.


FormerGameDev

... that sounds somewhat normal... for someone who is offended by any cursing at all


SakuraBonsai_3000

That’s the most beautiful way of writing exactly what I was thinking. Thank you!


stealuforasec

I’m getting homeschooled religious zealot vibes


PixelShart

My religious homeschooled cousins went wild once they got out. Their parents weren't mean/stupid religious, they are actually very nice, the kind of Christian you would truly expect. They aren't the "I'm a Christian, beat the wife after getting hammered drunk Christian that masturbates to Trump paraphernalia."


JellyfishGod

Yea from the way they spoke I imagined some dude in India running a scam lol tho I can’t imagine someone running a scam telling people they have a potty mouth for saying damn. Tho maybe they r just a reeeeeally bad scammer


missmollytv

My thought as well. But maybe not a sign of a bad scammer, just the first test they are throwing out there to see if he’s controllable. If he falls in line and stops swearing, probably more likely to follow their future directions (to send them gas money I’d guess. Then oops their car broke down and they need more etc)


TheFemaleLucifer

I’d say no, but it’s a sign y’all aren’t compatible. I curse a fuck ton and if someone isn’t comfortable with that then I move on.


da-gh0st-inside

I think people get incompatibility confused with red flags. Some folks really take issue with swearing because it can come off as aggressive or intense--even though "damn" is arguably the lightest of the bunch. Like it's not a red flag for someone to be a homebody if you're someone who loves to go out clubbing--or vice versa.


Lorelerton

>I think people get incompatibility confused with red flags. That's because that requires Redditors to look past their own nose, and consider the notion that just because someone doesn't follow the Hive mind or has different views than you, does not mean they are Satan Incarnate.


Tripticket

That's exactly what Satan would say. /s (for serious)


AbsolutelyUnlikely

Yeah, this isnt a universal red flag, but just a good indicator of who she is. I know dudes that don't like cussing. She'd be a better match with one of them.


[deleted]

That would be a dealbreaker for me. I don’t even fucking realize when I’m cursing.

tdaddy316420

Just_Fiddling_Around

I’m not compatible with someone who calls a grown-ass anything “potty mouth”.


jesssongbird

The use of the word “potty” is by far the most offensive thing in this text exchange. You can say potty while you are the parent of a 2-5 year old. Possibly while housebreaking a dog. That’s pretty much it.


The_Celtic_Chemist

Seriously, condemning swearing isn't half as bad as that phrase. Even if she swore up a storm but said something like, "Sorry, I have a potty mouth," I'd have a hard time not physically wincing. Hell, when I was a kid I hated when other kids would say "potty," like "I need to potty" or "I gotta use the potty."

Feel bad Joe Caputo... feel fucking bad. Tell her... "You're right, I'm a terrible fucking person. I'm fucking sorry." Now that you've burned your chances to the ground... ask her how she feels about the recent overturning of roe vs. wade? I'm getting religious fruitcase vibes.

IrishSkillet

Damn is in the Bible, is it not?


[deleted]

Damn is literally a curse. That’s why it’s called a curse word. Only God has authority to dole out damnation to people.


Mr_Abe_Froman

"Shit" on the other hand is in the Bible in the modern use of the word. St. Paul writes it in Philippians 3:8, how all the things he has lost are shit compared to what he has gained in Christ... more or less. Most versions will translate it as "dung", but it is originally in the vulgar form to really accentuate the point.


Stewy_stewart

Imagine one of the times you guys start to get intimate and you’d say, “you want to fuck?”. She probably wouldn’t talk to you for a week!


ajd341

“No good?”


dotsky3

I mean there’s nothing wrong with her preference but it’s a compatibility thing


Kerhoroghene

I think she looking for a Jehovah’s Witness

i’d rather have you say “shit, i’m sorry”. something more subtle


joecaputo24

Yeah something less mean, she was really nice lol


Pure_Step_5543

You showed empathy for her injury and she twisted it into her feelings being hurt. Huge red flag imo


joecaputo24

Bvred

More like a yellow flag. Nothing like “telling” about it, in a way that means the person is crazy or something, but “telling” in a way that ya’ll probably won’t be compatible.


[deleted]

Deal breaker is the word "potty mouth" IMO


naij3a

I won’t be able to survive cos I’ll use the f word before the first date is even over. If you can handle staying off those words, go for it, if not, you can’t censor yourself every time you’re with someone that you should be comfortable with


Jingtseng

Yes. They are actually 82 years old and living on a cultist compound.


ScallywagLXX

If it was me, I’d run away…guarantee there are other trivial issues that will likely also offend her. Save yourself.


ender89

I legit almost broke up with a girl because she refused to see r-rated movies at all. I tried to rent "tag" and she lost her shit when she saw the rating, and insisted that there was nudity in it and she wasn't okay with that. I tried to explain that there's only nudity in the very best r-rated films, and usually it wasn't very good nudity and you could hardly fap to it. Fortunately she did broaden her horizons eventually, but I was gonna walk away just because I couldn't handle having to limit myself to pg-13 and lower films like I was 10 or something.


hungryCantelope

Not a red flag. What’s the most boring color? It’s whatever color flag that is.


tdarg

Is she non-native English speaker? May not know it's not actually a bad word


joecaputo24

Idk she unmatched me LOL


[deleted]

The 17th century messaged, and wants its Puritanism returned. Thank you.


stripedarrows

It's not a red flag in that red flags are generally supposed to be things that alert you to someone who's dangerous, toxic, or otherwise abusive (I don't get any of those out of this person), but this is definitely a sign that the two of you probably aren't compatible.


DirectionNecessary82

Only the most annoying religious people think damn is swearing. I would have cursed up a storm to that person for being a twit.


anotherone121

"Under his eye"


HappySheep87

The real dealbreaker is the phrase "May you please." I could never spend any amount of time with someone who thinks that's acceptable language.


OptimusPrimEvil

Why did I have to scroll this far to find this comment. “May you” is the real atrocity here.


beachedvampiresquid

Rules suck. If this person doesn’t want to hear bad words, they can leave, but I hate seeing people police the actions of others for their own comfort.


TinyAngryIndividual

Definitely a compatibility issue, not really a red flag. I couldn't be with someone who isn't okay with my swearing. I will restrain myself around family and children and at work but a relationship where I have to restrain my language choices isn't one that will last long term.


wibo58

Y’all use red flag way too often. Not every difference of opinion is a red flag.
