I love words. I thank you for hearing my words.

Words are all we have, really. We have thoughts but thoughts are fluid. t d+ X6 [; p
then we assign a word to a thought and we're stuck with that word for

There are 400,000 words in the English language and there are 7

completely insensetive to people's feelings. I can understand why/ _) k) h' ?* z, H8 a d( v
some of those words got on the list, like CockSucker and
5 {* b* O. f" [& q, a; U* q& KMotherFucker. Those are heavyweight words. There is a lot going on
$ f. J$ F3 ^. Z8 Zthere. Besides the literal translation and the emotional feeling.
2 U, d2 a& w7 oI mean, they're just busy words. There's a lot of syllables to contend

7 d; y# k- \# D9 |It's like an assualt on you. We mentioned Shit earlier, and 2 of the7 {- W' _, p# T- j
other 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go

, Z1 [! L" `# O' i$ C3 FPiss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were5 C2 n/ ^$ p! U; t0 f5 G
certain ladies that said "Those are the 2 I am not going to say. I

accedental humor, I don't wanna get into that now because I think% `4 _7 O/ w& ]+ l9 | @. s- j
it takes to long. But I do mean that. I think the word Fuck is a very, R1 H2 G: @$ _5 |% d
imprortant word. It is the beginning of life, yet it is a word we use to

than 2 people trying to kill one another. I, of course, can agree. It is/ M0 w7 X. d9 f9 c! K3 h0 @7 l6 E! o
a great sentence. I wish I knew who said it first. I agree with that but
: S* u: I- c7 oI like to take it a step further. I'd like to substitute the word Fuck for( O; z; U6 T/ f% @; b! |
the word Kill in all of those movie cliches we grew up with. "Okay,$ J: m6 m0 l# G% e8 m8 v

I 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.$ r1 s6 N; A- o' C# [
Remember the ones you giggled at in sixth grade? "...And the cock

them. He must've hurt them, by God." and the other 2-way word that
" h' q8 W$ I& Bgoes with that one is Prik. It's okay if it happens to your finger. You7 n' y; p$ X$ w9 t
can prik your finger but don't finger your prik. No,no. |
