It wasn't so much what I said (shit, or some other equally benign word), it was the fact I said it when we were at Grandma's house.

Screamed that I didn't wanted to go to "goddamned bible lessons" and that the instructor could "go to hell"

Two expressions I had never ever ever used until after I started going to bible lessons.

This was my punishment any time my dad thought I had lied to him. Unfortunately for me I was pretty much the scapegoat for any mischief my siblings did and I was my dad's least favorite, so I ended up being punished a lot.

It was a bit different than the usual, though, because he didn't actually wash my mouth out, he just made me swallow a tablespoon of Dawn. And if I threw up I had to swallow another spoonful.

I was raised in an extremely southern baptist household. The only time I got the soap rather than the belt was when I took the lord's name in vane, goddamnit.

Never backtalk your old busha when your younger. It was the easiest way to a dial lunch.

I said, "fuck you" to my mom and she put a bar of Noxema in my mouth
