It's like an assualt on you. We mentioned Shit earlier, and 2 of the

together of course. A little accedental humor there. The reason that
* z3 R- D' z4 \8 \8 ^Piss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were

don't mind Fuck and Shit but 'P' and 'C' are out.", which led to such

3 T X1 [' f2 Y. L3 dit takes to long. But I do mean that. I think the word Fuck is a very

hurt one another quite often. People much wiser than I am said,; D6 T- j, D0 _0 b3 k: S9 V9 C
"I'd rather have my son watch a film with 2 people making love/ H* G% Y" P( Y0 L- e; @
than 2 people trying to kill one another. I, of course, can agree. It is
/ ]2 u0 }5 h) |8 n3 `4 ha great sentence. I wish I knew who said it first. I agree with that but" _0 [4 @5 e0 y$ }+ f( M
I like to take it a step further. I'd like to substitute the word Fuck for
4 N! `5 L9 z6 c1 r' qthe word Kill in all of those movie cliches we grew up with. "Okay,7 [' U7 W. y( ~" @; v
Sherrif, we're gonna Fuck you now, but we're gonna Fuck you slow."& S8 l$ u% h& r S' k
So maybe next year I'll have a whole fuckin' ramp on the N word.
9 m5 A$ w2 _: [* Q* J: y0 u$ W, EI hope so. Those are the 7 you can never say on television, under any

But there are some 2-way words, those double-meaning words.
