This town just passed a measure that bans cursing in public. Drop an F-bomb and they'll slap you with a fine. Photo: Ballyscanlon | Photodisc | Getty Images

If you have a hard time keeping your language in check, you should probably stay away from Middleborough, Mass. — either that, or clean up your act.

If you are caught swearing in public, that’s a $20 fine. It was one of a string of fines the town passed on Monday night that also included a $50 fine for littering, a $50 fine for shoveling snow into the street and a $300 fine for smoking marijuana in public.
