Do states in the south curse the most?

A customer research firm called Marchex analyzed how often people in all 50 states cursed in recorded phone calls to businesses over the past year.

When you call a business and the automated voice tells you that the call may be recorded for quality assurance.

People in Ohio were number one when it comes to swearing. They're followed by Maryland, New Jersey, Louisiana, and Illinois.

People in Washington state were least likely to swear. They finished just below Massachusetts, Arizona, Texas, and Virginia.

The study just goes to show you that most folks from the south do have some manners, and folks in the northeast have little potty mouths on them.

The study also found two out of every three curse words come from men. The study revealed that people are twice as likely to swear in the morning as they are in the afternoon or evening.
