Search Results: too much joke

A co-worker of mine has pretty good chemistry with me and we've only been working with each other for a couple of weeks. She always jokes around with me and tries to put stuff on me just for fun and I do the same to her. The only problem is that she's younger than me. She's nineteen and I'm twenty-eight years old, but the vibe is good and she's interested in a lot of the same stuff that I'm into. I remember her being a little bummed out because I told her that I have the next couple of days off. She said, Aww man. Sounding bummed about it. Do you guys think it would be fine to ask for her phone number as a co-worker or friend and see where things go or am I reading too much into this?

My 9 year old brother uses two of these words sometimes and he said "sexual" a few times but was stop at the last minute to "stop using that word" by our mom.

"Heck," my stepdad (his dad) takes slight offense to. He worries if my brother will say "hell," so he tries to not allow him to say heck if he is using it too often. Oddly enough, he considers it worse
than darn, dang, sucks, and even crap. Yes, he thinks heck is worse than crap!!!

My brother also says freaking, but usually he's told not to say that word because it means the F-word. What I don't understand is "sex," and its derivatives, being considered as bad words.

Sexual harassment, sex education (even officially labeled in some 4th and 5th grade classes), sex as in the gender. None of these terms are bad. Nor is "sexual intercourse," but of course it's technically an adult thing. Doesn't make sex a bad word. Going by that logic, "drugs" and "working full-time" would be considered profane or vulgar since only adults do those things.

In case anyone doesn't feel this is conservative enough, I'd like to add that my stepdad is quite homophobic (for religious and societal reasons) and sexist (not misogynist, there is a difference). He cracks a lot of racial jokes from time to time, but denies being racist. He even teaches those things to my brother.

Funny thing is they say EVERYTHING from fuck and shit and f*g, to ass, hell, damn, crap (this one my brother is allowed to use). Pretty much everything except c*nt and n*gg*r. My brother shared an opinion on VeggieTales and his dad got offended because he had an opinion on a "Christian show." My stepdad is pretty much a closed-minded person and almost always relies on societal norms, but he wants to be the 1% of parents that are highly egomaniac'd and bigoted.

It's nothing fancy. I'm just doing it on Google Docs and maybe Wattpad. But I'm a beginner and wanted some feedback from a casual audience who are not professional writers.

It's just basically gonna be a sitcom comedy kind of show, where the characters are just kind of living out their seemingly mundane average lives, but somehow end up getting themselves into all sorts of crazy shenanigans and adventures.

Richard: The main character of the show. He's a dork with many nerdy hobbies, such as drawing, writing, video games, or anime. He's never been too successful with women, though he tries his best. He likes to joke around and make bad puns.

Julio: Richard's best friend, as well as second main character. He's kind of an idiot, and means well but gives Richard a lot of bad advice, which Richard then takes, not being much smarter. He's pretty self centered and though he is physically strong, he overestimates his own strength by a lot. He's usually carefree, but is very protective of his younger brother Adrian.

Adrian: Julio's younger brother. He's short and pretty overweight, and just loves candy and junk food. He and Julio constantly argue all the time when together, though Julio secretly cares for him very much. He's definitely very gullible and pretty innocent, and falls for almost anything, but even he knows how bad Julio's advice is.

Jarius: A friend of Richard and Julio. He's extremely smart, but in no way a stereotypical nerd like Richard is. He often gets annoyed at how stupid Richard and Julio are, and almost always has a bored face when around them. He tries pointing out when things are a bad idea, but Richard and Julio just never listen. They often bring him along for his brains and knowledge, but completely ignore his good advice.

Jojo: Richard's worst enemy since childhood. In kindergarten he tore up Richard's drawing, and they've been at it ever since. Unlike Richard he's very popular with the girls and physically strong. But a total asshole.
