but you can understand why some of them are there. I'm not

there. Besides the literal translation and the emotional feeling.
6 j* g! ~; E. |I mean, they're just busy words. There's a lot of syllables to contend

It's like an assualt on you. We mentioned Shit earlier, and 2 of the
7 o: T4 B$ h! O; A* v; Hother 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go
$ L! Q% @; A+ s1 Ptogether of course. A little accedental humor there. The reason that
) w% P0 }: H; U& z6 m, O* P& CPiss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were
9 `' W3 z' x7 o; Rcertain ladies that said "Those are the 2 I am not going to say. I' Q: f7 _6 a! r4 Q8 C
don't mind Fuck and Shit but 'P' and 'C' are out.", which led to such

accedental humor, I don't wanna get into that now because I think
( X5 P, b- p- C5 bit takes to long. But I do mean that. I think the word Fuck is a very+ Z8 U8 L0 f/ H5 r% v
imprortant word. It is the beginning of life, yet it is a word we use to

a great sentence. I wish I knew who said it first. I agree with that but1 O7 i5 r. U* e+ b, }
I like to take it a step further. I'd like to substitute the word Fuck for0 N' N* s3 L! e
the word Kill in all of those movie cliches we grew up with. "Okay,/ G9 I, }( O% F" R" v
