Where is this? I haven't seen anything about it. I got in trouble in high school for saying "Bull", because my mom said she "knew what came after the word 'bull'". You also know that "shoot" is a substitute for it, but the fact that I didn't say the real word means it's acceptable, so why not "bull"?

And the "swear word" was "crap". Pretty sure I used that word in elementary school. šŸ™„
There is much worse. I heard much worse when I was a kid. I didn't repeat them though because I would be grass otherwise. My parents allowed my younger brother and I to watch Spaceballs when we kids, but were not allowed to repeat the language including the swearing from the shooting hair scene.

Probably the only swear word I use. Not kidding.
It's funny because when I was in middle school I hated swearing of any kind. "Crap" was the only word I used. My friends actually knew not to swear around me because I hated it so much.

Now I live on the dangerous side. I say damn a lot. šŸ¤£ And when I'm really mad, "Oh s----". Like when I've spilled diet mountain dew all over my keyboard. šŸ™„ Frickin' comes out of my mouth a lot. Not the f bomb though. I draw the line at that. I've kind of got an immunity to hearing it having worked in IT and a sales driven organization. šŸ˜‚

Ok, ok, I use ā€œfrickinā€™ā€ and also say ā€œOh shootā€. In my head it will be the four letter version but God forbid anyone hear it. šŸ˜‚ It doesnā€™t take long for people to figure out I donā€™t use the four letter words. Last week a friend started laughing and said that I must be mad cause I said ā€œcrapā€. šŸ¤£

One time I was in the car with my aunt. It was her car, and we were down here. Now SC drivers are really, really bad. I know some people say drivers in their state are the worst, but SC drivers are just awful. Anyway, this guy in front of me cut me off and I very nearly missed a turn and I thought we were going to end up in an accident. "Oh s----" came flying out of my mouth, which was the first time my aunt ever had heard me curse. We looked at each other and agreed that it never happened; she never heard a thing. šŸ˜‚

I don't have the form in front of me, but I did just pull up a quick online general list for MA (below). I think there was actually a few more things on the actual form we got from the inspection. The below list is for a passenger vehicle only (there are different ones for motorcycles and trucks).

Inspection cost is $60. (Plus, whatever cost the vehicle owner puts into repairs prior to the inspection -- to get it up to inspection specs. We had just bought 2 new tires and had a few other mechanical things done -- and that was over $400 last week, plus $100 for the rod replacement/labor yesterday morning, so that the car would then pass inspection.) The entire ordeal is a PITA. :cautious:
  • Emissions testing,
  • Brake operation testing
  • Muffler and exhaust system noise and function
  • Steering and suspension testing
  • Horn operation
  • Window cracks and tinting regulations
  • Lighting: taillights, headlights, directionals
  • Tire wear, mounting, and height
  • Safety features: airbags and safety belts
  • Fuel tank

Yearly inspection in our county (can go 2 years on a new car) is $25.50 (safety/emissions), registration is $51.75.
Back in the day, the inspection sticker was on the outside of the windshield, on the lower drivers side, and registration was a little sticker in the upper right corner of your rear license plate.
Creative thieves resulted in that going to 2 stickers (1 for inspection, 1 for registration) on the inside lower drivers side of the windshield.
These days, itā€™s just one sticker for both on the inside lower drivers side of the windshield. You pass your inspection, and that shop/location gives you a form, to either take to the tax office to pic up your combo inspection/registration sticker, or you can do it online and have the sticker mailed to you.
