some of those words got on the list, like CockSucker and; T3 ?- z: C3 {2 c
MotherFucker. Those are heavyweight words. There is a lot going on

I mean, they're just busy words. There's a lot of syllables to contend7 j& z6 g7 B: y) f& n; V w
with. And those Ks, those are agressive sounds. They just jump out at F- K( p8 o) a4 W4 h
you like "coCKsuCKer, motherfuCKer. coCKsuCKer, motherfuCKer."

other 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go, }4 ]. e, ?: J: s) b8 y
together of course. A little accedental humor there. The reason that
) [6 t' c4 ~, L9 F8 L$ CPiss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were% h. k+ i: e% C2 J
certain ladies that said "Those are the 2 I am not going to say. I" l) v" q' m/ @- N/ f- P! z. p
don't mind Fuck and Shit but 'P' and 'C' are out.", which led to such

accedental humor, I don't wanna get into that now because I think
