..drops 'the F-bomb', it doesn't make her any more authorative or respected - it makes her look as stupid as the help/owners she is reprimanding.
C'mon Tabatha - you want to be believed as a repsonsible, successful, professional business woman, so act like one at the business you are 'mentoring' and leave the profanity for your friends at the 'brew pub'.

Her bitchy mouth is a big selling point of the show you !@#$
shareIn other countries, like Australia, the f-bomb is common and not considered that big of a deal. So it's a cultural thing.
Wrong. She has the balls to treat these "un"professionals like badly behaved children, because that's what they are. They need a kick in the ass. If she started swearing at me, it would scare the *beep* out of me. That's what she does with these idiots and, for the most part, it gets RESULTS.

In Australia, the f-word is an effin' conjunction. :P
It - along with other swear words - can be used casually in non-confrontational contexts, or (as often demonstrated by Tabatha) as a verbal exclamation mark.
Oh! And the term *beep* is VERY Australian. Case in point: Frenzal Rhomb's "You can't move into my house". :P
I lol so hard every time Tabatha describes someone that way. :D

Pretty much, you can say *beep* and sh*t here and no one will really bat an eye lid, can pretty much get away with sl*t also. C word is a bit more controversial but other than that, it's pretty much a free for all.
The only time anyone really pays any attention to what they're saying here is when they are around customers/patients/etc...which if you pay attention she never swears in front of customers. I've had "college" (as you'd call it) swear pretty much every other sentence, it's just not really an issue here.
you can take the girl out of the trailer park, but....
Europeans and Aussies aren't uptight about using swearwords like Americans are
I coulda used a little more cowbell
Plenty of Americans use the F bomb quite frequently, usually the less educated ones.
The problem is the word loses it "punch" when used too often.
The other thing is once you start dropping F bombs whether you have a complaint about service in a restaurant, a problem with a CNA at a hospital who is taking care of a family member, etc. The person/persons you're talking to starts to "shut down".
You're not getting a rise out of them, you're not scaring them, you're losing them. In fact in some cases they may have been on your side, and now you have lost them.
And in some cases you have now given them an "out", they can be 100% wrong in the situation, and you have every right to be angry, but you start talking to them in that manner and you have given them an excuse to turn it around on you and say "I won't be talked to in that manner".
You can get your point across with having *beep* come out of your mouth with every sentence.
Exactly my point from my original post a year ago! Thanks jac!
"Why don't you put on your listening ears?" - Judge Judy
Those situations don't really apply though, these people need her help to keep their jobs, if they shut down she isn't losing anything, they are...possibly their job and their business.
shareI guess. Some of those people need to be cursed out. If i'm at risk of losing my salon..and i'm turning down possibly the only help I can get...then I would expect a few 'f-bombs' coming my way.
shareI had to explain this to my sister who uses the F-bomb when she's angry, but passes judgement on others that curse. They're just words that people use for different reasons. Using those words doesn't make anyone look classy, but it doesn't make them less of a person. To really see if someone is being a jerk, being funny, emphasizing a situation or feeling, trying to be tough, or just can't find a better word to use, you have to take it in the context of the situation and how well it fits.
Tabatha uses it in frustration of the stupidity and state of denial of the people she's trying to help. It makes sense and doesn't offend me. Sometimes Stupid people need to be cursed at and the strong words are what makes them see she's serious. She doesn't curse all the time and the people she's helping don't take offense. They get who she is, how she is, and where she's coming from.
