Thinking About … The F-Word

    Using the F-Bomb is sign of lack of control. It may fit sometimes but is never appropiate

    F*ck You, Kory Stone! rnrnrnKidding of course!

    My boyfriend has used this word as his favorite since a child. He actually had to do a report on its history for class after using it just a bit too often. He will let anyone who asks that it stands For Unlawful Carnal Knowledge and the four letters were posted over the head of adulterers and unmarried lovers while in the stocks. He is very proud of his research, although I think there are many explanations to the origins of this curse. Any curse or pseudo-curse may let off some tension when one is injured or upset. Using one that you know may get you in moral trouble gives just an extra inch of satisfaction. If this one didn’t exist we would find another to give us the same satisfaction. The pseudo-curses (fudge, shoot, gosh-darn-it), will never give the same feeling as their original four-letter words.

  • Drxl7

    Do you know the real origin of FUCK?!

  • Drxl7

    FUCK in a form was in the first edition of the Gutenburg Bible as meaning “Be Fruitful…” (fecund) Fruitful…Grow up! Learn plain English and stop being a knee jerk following someone else’s childish ignorant lead. Are you a Pseudo Prude?! I am not impressed and I doubt that God is either!

    Comedy belongs in music. Ask Frank Zappa.

    Swearing, regardless of the word, is simply a lack of intelligence or vocabulary.rnrnMy Grandfather, after my mother had burnt her hand on a frying pan.

    Ummmmm. Someone told me years ago that a lady could use this word under one condition and one condition only – in the expression of her deepest passion for her gentleman.rnrnThe person who told me was about 97 and the classiest, most refined and most elegant woman I have ever known. I think I agree with her, and believe that is the one appropriate use of the word.rnrnrnrnrn

    I like to use the F-Bomb to gain control some times…as in, “Back the f*ck off!” Things like that. :)

  • Hansmoerdijk

    I find the word “kill”very much more offensive then the word “fuck”. Fucking is a very much enjoyable and harmless act whitch you can’t say about killing.

    Loved it…Funny as hell. It is just a song about a guy who lost his girl because he couldn’t keep her in diamonds, fancy cars, or go out and be seen in all the right places with her new clothes that she just spent $1,000.00 for. I am female and I hear woman all the time hear women say where are all the good men…They are out there, you dont see them because they are working and not in the bars.
