In NYC people will tell you to your face you're an idiot. Go down south and people will smile and politely nod then gossip to everyone behind your back that you're an idiot
Yep. Ask many people who have known me in life. I am blunt. I see no reason to candy coat or beat around the bush...just say what it is, tackle it, move on. Lots of people can't handle honesty, I've discovered.

I consider myself to be honest and don't have a potty mouth. I know many honest people who have a clean vocabulary.

Agreed and, Trump's a "New Yorker" with his "in your face" attitude which HAS pissed off many people. I'm NOT trying to hijack the thread, either.

I'm pretty crude but; sometimes it ain't real smart to carry on like it so, I do try to tone it down.
