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

Piss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were. J& g# N+ x) q9 z6 ]) z8 N
certain ladies that said "Those are the 2 I am not going to say. I

I hope so. Those are the 7 you can never say on television, under any, J& s5 a+ F& U! O/ M
