I use all sorts of Mormon Idioms when I talk...(cussing)

I think it just dawned on me that it must sound so odd and pretentious both to nevermos and exmos.

I have two modes of language, the one is my polite and reverent voice that uses lots of Mormon-speak. I use this for formal settings and polite society.

The other is the one when I can tired of all this fucking bullshit.

Using phrases from the book of Mormon (you know how terrible it's grammar is).
Favoring words too much like "nevertheless", "exceeding", "for" instead of "because".

Doesn’t everyone adjust their behaviour for different settings?

Dinner with mother in law:
Tee, hee, hee … would you mind passing the potatoes, please?

In the circle with friends:
HAHAHA … hey doofus, are you gonna bogart that thing, or what?
