I make it a point to never, ever swear in front of students. I correct their language to help them learn restraint (casual cursing, especially) and to respect other people's spaces.

Today. Ugh. Not today.

I told them that if they didn't want to help or be helped that they needed to get the fuck out of my room now.

No one left. Three quarters of the class was annoyed and over the stupidity. The other quarter was just shocked. Sometimes the shock can help.
