Thanks, Lucy! 
I didn't realize that "bloody" is a mild swear word. I went to a 
catholic school for three years, and I can guarantee nothing 
but "yes, Sister" and "no, Sister" would ever have crossed our lips. 
Were I confronted by McGonagall, I'd never, ever, curse in front of 
her. But that's just me, not wishing to rock the boat or say rosaries 
three times a day. (And I'm a protestant, too!)
"Fixin' to" isn't really rude, per se, but is often interpreted by 
non-Texans as common or uneducated speech (in my experience). But 
it's just a phrase.
