Tips: Have a pleasant day

I am currently working through my own 12-step programme to clean up my language. BabyBear doesn't give a flying...um...flip what I say right now, but she's bound to catch on soon.

Two tips to curb your cursing:
1. Rather than swearing at inconsiderate, reckless drivers, wish them "a pleasant day". For some reason, saying "Have a pleasant day" with a smile on my face is almost as satisfying my old methods.
2. Substitute with new expressions. I'm really fond of saying "mother of pearl" right now.

What do you do to keep the cursing at bay?
