Children beware this is for adults only if you are under 18 or easily offended please close this post now!
Are the kids gone? Ok great lets get started... I hope you used the rest room first!
OK I get that a lot of people find cuss words taboo, but to ban them is insane.
Here is why:
First off a few of them are very functional words in our language.
Let us look at the word Sh*t for a moment.
Consider:
You can get sh*t-faced, be sh*t-out-of-luck, or have sh*t for brains. With a little effort, you can get your sh*t together, find a place for your sh*t, or be asked to sh*t or get off the pot.
You can smoke sh*t, buy sh*t, sell sh*t, lose sh*t, find sh*t, forget sh*t, and tell others to eat sh*t.
Some people know their sh*t, while others can't tell the difference between sh*t and Shine-O-La.
There are lucky sh*ts, dumb sh*ts, and crazy sh*ts. There is bull sh*t, horse sh*t, and chicken sh*t.
You can throw sh*t, sling sh*t, catch sh*t, shoot the sh*t, or duck when the sh*t hits the fan.
You can give a sh*t or serve sh*t on a shingle. You can find yourself in deep sh*t or be happier than a pig in sh*t.
Some days are colder than sh*t, some days are hotter than sh*t, and some days are just plain sh*tty.
Some music sounds like sh*t, things can look like sh*t, and there are times when you feel like sh*t.
You can have too much sh*t, not enough sh*t, the right sh*t, the wrong sh*t or a lot of weird sh*t.
You can carry sh*t, have a mountain of sh*t, or find yourself up sh*t creek without a paddle.
Sometimes everything you touch turns to sh*t and other times you fall in a bucket of sh*t and come out smelling like a rose.
Once in a while you have to wear boots because the sh*t is getting too deep.
When you stop to consider all the facts, it's the basic building block of the English language.
And remember, once you know your sh*t, you don't need to know anything else!!
So really when you consider all the facts there are reasons to not ban the word...
Also the word Pr*ck.
It is a multi use word you can pr*ck your finger, but one can also be/have a pr*ck.
Then there is the F word Ooooooooooh.
Yeah we are back in High school again
F is an international word. It doesn't matter where you are in the world, everyone knows exactly what you mean when you say "F Off".
It's the atmosphere it creates, that's why you will never read something like:
"F off", he hinted.
In language, "fu&k" falls into many grammatical categories, making it one of the most versatile words in the English language.
It can be used as a verb, both transitive (John f'ed Jane) and intransitive (John and Jane f'ed). It can be an active verb (John f'ed Jane) or a passive verb (Jane was f'ed by John). Or an adverb (Jane is a f'ing bastard) and a noun (Jane is a terrific fu&k). It can be used as an adjective (Jane is f'ing beautiful). It may also be inserted into other words (abso-f'ing-lutely).
It is one magical word: just by its sound it can describe pain, pleasure, hate and love. Besides its sexual connotations, this word can be used to describe many situations such as:
Greetings - "How the f are you?"
Fraud: I got f'ed at the used car lot.
Ignorance: F'ed if I know.
Trouble: I guess I am f'ed now!
Aggression: F you!
Displeasure: What the f is going on here?
Difficulty: I don’t understand this f'ing job.
Incompetence: He is a f-off.
Suspicion: What the f are you doing?
Enjoyment: I had a f'ing good time.
Request: Get the f out of here!
Hostility: I am going to knock your f'ing head off!
Apathy: Who gives a f?
Innovation: Get a bigger f'ing hammer.
Surprise: F! You scared the sh*t out of me!
Anxiety: Today is really f'ed.
So I see no reason to ban these words in all honesty they are simply a colorful part of our linguistic tapestry.
I hope you enjyed that as much as I did... Oh sh*t look at the time! Now I have to run I need to do the F'ing dishes.
