The Swear Jar	comment	One (or more) of the characters has a particularly foul mouth, so another character decides to institute the Swear Jar so that they have to pay up every time they use rude language. Hilarity Ensues as the character who used to swear like a sailor either drops an unfathomable amount of cash into the jar or ends up having to censor everything he says. Also, expect the character who instigated the jar to end up falling foul of his own rules and having to put money in as well. May also appear as a more generic Forfeit Jar if any character is particularly prone to specific words, phrases or acts. Expect a gag where someone drops a decent amount of money into the jar as an advance on an impending and extended litany of foul language. Truth in Television in many households (such as English-speaking ones), with varying degrees of effectiveness and longevity. Don't expect it to last beyond an episode in fiction, though. For similar ways of keeping people in line, see Employee of the Month and Good Behavior Points.

Last Friday of the month, everyone goes out drinking with the cash. This being the Salvation War, having such people around eventually will be possible, although Norman notes that even then they'll start out knowing less about the newly discovered dimensional physics than the scientists they already have.

The chief actually told him at one point that Tommy had, in the brief time he'd been there, but so much money in the swear jar that the firehouse was about to buy a new HDTV for the rec room (at the time, big-screen HDTV's were still going for about $2000 USD).

The Swear Jar / int_261c8d3f	comment	The Simpsons: In an early episode, when Ned and Marge point out Homer's swearing-tendencies (after Ned's youngest son, Todd, picks up Homer's foul language), Marge comes up with the idea for this trope, and explains that she got the idea for it from her mom, who put up a swear jar after her dad developed a swearing-streak after her got out of the navy. Homer ends up putting money in the jar for accidentally putting a $20 bill in the church collection plate ("Da—"), cursing out a lone bowling pin after nearly getting a strike ("Oh, you son of a—"), calling Flanders a "dirty bast—" after Flanders (who shaved his mustache off in exchange for Homer curbing his foul language) gets checks for starring in commercials, after forgetting to build a door for Santa's Little Helper's doghouse, and after a beehive falls on him while sleeping on a hammock (and was implied to have been stung by many of them off-screen), and becomes so programmed not to curse that he says, "Oh, fudge!" and "Fiddle-dee-dee" before breaking down into Angrish as he kicks down the doghouse. The good news is that the money in Homer's swear jar was enough for Marge and Lisa to just go out and buy a doghouse for SLH (since the one Homer was building was so poorly designed to begin with) along with a case of beer for Homer. Note that when Marge suggests the idea, she's quite lenient about Homer hypothetically swearing if he catches on fire (or if the two are "snuggling"), which raises the question of why she would have charged him over the beehive incident. In a later episode, when low-flying planes are causing items to fall to the floor, Marge runs around trying to save them. Then she turns and sees:

The Swear Jar / int_2675c915	comment	In Season 3 of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., Chloe Bennet's character officially abandoned the alias "Skye" in favor of her birth name of "Daisy Johnson". When filming Season 3, the show's staff set up a "She's Daisy Now" jar, and everyone had to put a dollar in the jar whenever they said "Skye" instead of "Daisy". The writers room for Agent Carter had a similar "Stark Jar" that had to be paid into whenever someone referred to Howard Stark as "Tony Stark".

The Swear Jar / int_b0fba5f1	comment	In Kitchen Nightmares, the UK version, there was an episode, Gordon Ramsay challenged a chef to avoid drinking alcohol and smoking during service. Ramsay also set a challenge for himself by not swearing during a service. If either did that, they have to put a pound into a piggy bank. Ramsay had to put in quite a few pounds into the jar.

However, Marjorie has contributed something in the region of Â£2,000. George admits he ought to say something, but the money has paid for five caravaning holidays.

A later strip shows that she put a down payment on a car with the proceeds of one jar.note When the jar is introduced into the strip, the commentary says Sydney puts in $5 per tirade (being cheaper in the long run than $1 per word), with thoughts of bumping the amount up once she becomes adjusted to what her 'new' job pays. Another one shows up much later. Seeing how she had just gotten back from being stranded in space and chased by four Kaiju, she elects to round up and dump in 10,000 in cash.

The Swear Jar / int_ccae327f	comment	The Spoony Experiment: The Demolition Man example was parodied by the Spoony One when he reviewed the video game based on that movie. His robot, Burton, was programmed to issue a fine every time he swore. By the end of the review, he was so infuriated by the game (and had so many fines) that he throttled and beheaded the robot. The reason for the swearing fines is because Spoony (supposedly) got a sponsorship deal with Taco Bell and they want his show to be all-ages appropriate. He tries to get around it by using curses from sci-fi shows. At the end of the review, all the Taco Bell food has given him indigestion, seemingly setting up a parody of the Demolition Man scene...except that Spoony chooses the game's instruction manual over the pile of fines.

The Swear Jar / int_d26874b6	comment	Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Greg's mother, Susan, instituted one of these at some point. One of the main reasons behind this was so that Manny wouldn't learn any swear words — if anybody said a swear word (at least in front of Manny) would have to put money in the jar. But eventually, Susan decided to up the ante by banning words like "stupid" and "jerk." To keep themselves from going broke, Greg and Rodrick came up with a series of code words (rather silly ones at that) that they can say to each other at home. But Greg claims that he sometimes forgets to switch back to the normal words when he's at school, making him look silly.

Exploited by John Spartan when he finds out there's no toilet paper in the future, with people instead using a seashell-looking object that Spartan can't work out.

The Swear Jar / int_d5fcae4e	comment	Ted Lasso: Season 2 reveals that Roy Kent is supposed to pay his niece Phoebe a pound every time he swears in front of her. Instead of having a jar, Phoebe keeps a notebook where she keeps track of how much he owes her. It's gotten up to Â£1,236. A comment by Keeley in a later episode further reveals that that was just Roy's tab for that month. When Phoebe meets Jamie in Season 3, she charges him as well, even for a word that he didn't actually say but made her think about (he had given Roy one of his old jerseys with the E in "KENT" changed to a U). Jamie quickly concedes and pays up.
