Evidence that pop culture and the internet is influencing our youth… or is it the evil Auntie… I forget which.

Sitting at Chinese the other night my 14 year old niece got upset about something and hissed – “W.T.F?”

I had a mouthful of Mongolian Beef and turned to her – “What did you just say?”

Tia-Bobia – “What? I can’t say WTF? When you say Fuck all the time?”

Me – “It’s not that I have a problem with you swearing… god knows I have no legs to stand on about having a potty mouth – but WTF? If you’re pissed enough to swear do it right – no abbreviating.  In a one on one conversation across the table – swear like you mean it – don’t text out loud. It’s too.  Too…”

Tia-Bobia –“Modern?”

What does one say to that? I guess I’m just getting old. WTF?
