other 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go( _( n- M: v- r# @9 ^( v! w
together of course. A little accedental humor there. The reason that0 x5 \/ t6 Y# b! ]/ h$ |* B
Piss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were

it takes to long. But I do mean that. I think the word Fuck is a very

I hope so. Those are the 7 you can never say on television, under any3 z+ T0 x+ u3 ]4 v3 l
circumstanses. You just cannot say them ever ever ever. Not even

and Johnny. I mean, it is just impossible. Forget tHose 7. They're out.

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