Piss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were/ v; A4 v# {( |2 j# Y( l8 c
certain ladies that said "Those are the 2 I am not going to say. I

a great sentence. I wish I knew who said it first. I agree with that but
( z) V, U/ X+ p( f2 w8 fI like to take it a step further. I'd like to substitute the word Fuck for
