I was just watching an episode of Mythbusters where they just confirmed a myth that swearing increases your tolerance to pain. All I can say is that I would like to apologize in advance to my wife, my mom, the baby Jesus, my cat, and anyone else who happens to be around during a pain flare! Mmmm... I can taste the soap already :lol:

Ha! This is a favorite show of my kids, but I missed that episode! I'll have to try that pain reduction technique one day when they're not around!

There's actually published medical studies that confirm the same thing about prayer, so prayer or swear, take your pick ;)
