   I've grown fond of saying sh*t when communicating about things     
   that p*ss me off.   
      
   What triggered that for me a character in the tv series Ozark.     
   She uses the word in instances where she wants to appear serious     
   about something that seems wrong.  "Oh, don't give me that     
   sh*t". "Are you still smoking that sh*t?", etc.   
      
   I like it.  It's good sh*t.   
      
   When I am amongst collegues, friends, or people with whom I can     
   be open about my thoughts, I'll throw in the odd sh*t word.   
      
   I've never spoken like that before. It's a 2020-2021 thing.
