'That's okay.'
And so, if someone gives an apology, you can choose to just accept it in a brief and matter-of-fact way (this is usually best, but with us complex human beings, nothing works all the time, and it has to work for you, too).
That sounds like a good idea. The main thing is I don't want to make a big thing of it in the conversation.

Generally I don't associate with people like that either. These are just normal friends who just occasionally throw in vulgarities from time to time. I think giving them a stare would draw too much attention to their vulgarity and give the impression that I'm offended.
