So fuck is not okay, but bullshit is?

Or only if you abbreviate it and make the reader say it in their head?

I love that Louis C.K. routine. "Take responsibility for the shitty words you want to say"

I would never have sworn in front of my Gran but then she was in her 80s when I was in my teens.

Probably closer to your generation would be my mum (70s) and she doesn't give a toss about swearing as long as it is in an appropriate setting and done with style

Example: interview for a job? No swearing / with my mates at the pub? fill your boots

In the house of someone who swears? Absolutely / In the house of someone who finds it offensive? absolutely not

I have very much the same attitude.

They are just words. They have whatever power or force we imbue them with.

There is nothing inherently offensive about the word 'fuck'.

exactly this. Perhaps your way of saying it is kinder..... (like a kinder surprise....

)

In fact, nobody alive today even knows why it ever was offensive.

This was a big thing I taught my kids from the beginning: there are no bad words only inappropriate audiences. Seems to have worked out OK but the mm swears like a sailor and she's only 13. I guess she comes by it honestly.

Well Fuck, I didn't know that.

I cannot say that I am loving Jaminhealth at the moment. Nor Flint.

But then again, I have been quite an asshiole myself. I am a different and, I hope, better person now than I was then. Because of these people here in The Cellar. I'm so glad to have had you in my life.

Fuck you jaminhealth, 82 times, and fuck you Flint, twice, sideways, with a dead dingo's dick. The two of you, and your ensuing assholery, have driven the final nails into The Cellar's coffin.

The Cellar is closing.

The Cellar is closing.

God dammit.
