How do I stop cussing?

Kind of a dumb question but I grew up in a household where cussing was common, and that extended into being in the military, where pretty much every other word is “fuck” and “damnit”. Now I’ve been out for a few years and I cuss constantly in casual conversation and it just sounds stupid and off putting. But it’s not something I think about ahead of time and only notice after I’ve done it. It’s gotten to the point where I cussing casually while talking the my kids and I don’t really like that. Has anyone been able to kick this habit ? Any tips or tricks to catch it before the words come out?

Slide not going into battery

Had my Zev for a while, no issues really. But yesterday when I inserted a mag with the slide locked to the rear, and then dropped the slide, it didn’t fully seat into battery/ bullet only road up the ramp to the chamber about half way. Smack on the back of the slide and it seats. It’s doing this with OEM Glock mags, Magpul mags, and Mecgar. Gun is also clean. Any ideas? Maybe the spring tension on the extractor is too heavy so it isn’t riding up and over the lip on the round? Thanks in advance
