there. Besides the literal translation and the emotional feeling.

other 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go

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

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 is0 ` n8 g4 K$ m' h
a great sentence. I wish I knew who said it first. I agree with that but( t6 V6 [3 k" |9 l
I like to take it a step further. I'd like to substitute the word Fuck for

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

goes with that one is Prik. It's okay if it happens to your finger. You
