Jeeze, I spend most of my time at a biker bar and nobody behaves this way. OK, it’s gentrified bar but still. When I hear it it’s usually a younger crowd and my opinion is the same as Hampshire’s. They sound like morons. They’re often the people in the parking lot who can’t be bothered with the time honored filtration of beer.
If you changed your username to Backwater Under Fuck (and posted more often on ye olde Dope we got round these here fucking parts) it would probably help remind you to keep your resolution.
Is there only one bar in Ottawa?
Only one within a five minute walk.
That’s known as “stumbling distance” 'round here.
Is that measured in five minutes of “walking” walking, or “fucking walking”?
Fucking walking can take a really long time. Try that, I bet you find a different bar.
Stumble, stumble. Crawl, crawl. Roll, roll…
Step one, instead of ass say buns
Like ‘Kiss my buns’ or ‘You’re a buns hole’
Step two, instead of shit say poo
As in ‘Bull poo’, ‘Poo head’ and this ‘Poo is cold’
Why the fuck not?
Ok, I only use it when I see extra money in my bank account (Fuck yeah!!), when my pinky toe hits the corner of air (WTF??) or when I am talkin’ dirty to the hubby (I want the hubba hubba smiley).
It’s a word everyone says.
A colorful explosion.
Everyone understands.
I refuse to allow it to only be in the provenance of rough men.
And it’s not even a real swear word unless you consider getting fucked to be bad.
Oh, wait… NVM!
And I just read this on Reddit’s Shower Thoughts:
“Bad language is like spice. It adds some flavor, but you don’t want to overdo it”
I got that beat:
Back in the mid-'70s, when John Denver was popular, I got in the habit of exclaiming FAR OUT! every couple of minutes. And I couldn’t stop myself! I did not become popular as a result.
I don’t use the word much myself, usually either to refer to the actual sex act in a joking or ironic way w/ a very few people very close to me, or when doing DIY home repair work, especially plumbing (my wife and I even call my plumbing work that, I’m going to go do some FUCK!, SHIT! work because the bathroom sink is broken).
I don’t care much how other people talk. I do think it sounds idiotic when guys, which it usually is, and youngish ones more than middle aged IME, say it in every sentence. And some people interpret intense cursing for no good reason as aggressive and attempting to intimidate them.
I’m a preachers kid. No one could out swear me at school, starting sometime in elementary. I also worked as a stock broker for 7 years (UBS and Lehmans) and fuck speak in that industry goes to a whole 'nother level. Michael Lewis in Liar’s Poker called out fuck speak with a quote something along the lines of “fucking fuckers get their fucking faces ripped off.”
I worked with a guy at UBS that never swore. But he would say things like “dang, man” and it was about 100x more impactful because he was the only one not swearing, and used kinda cliché non swear words to great effect. That has stayed with me and I try to teach my kids that. A loudly proclaimed “dang it” can get a lot more attention than the alternative. Although my eldest just turned 18 and went away to college, the last 2 weeks at home she was swearing pretty close to the level I did at her age. Really took me aback.
1 o’clock and 3… ahh plus minutes… and a fucking mosquito just fucking bit me. Fucking native mosquito judging by the size of the welt. Fuck this and fuck that and…
why hasn’t anyone posted : The word FUCK - YouTube
There are words that hurt me just from reading them much more than fuck.
Rip you, cut you, stamp you, I dunno (I don’t want to).
Oh this needs to be all over the internet. Lemme get that going…
That’s not a political ad, it was a comedy show doing a spoof of the current political situation in Australia.
And yeah, I swear like a fucken trooper online, but in my actual intercourse with real people in real time, I avoid it like the fucken plague.
Long ago I worked with a guy who we teased about his limited vocabulary. I specifically remember once hearing him say, "fuck the fuckin’ motherfucker’.
I pointed out to the group that 75% of the words in his sentence were fuckish.
mmm
One reason is to remind people they are in a bar. One of my favorite bars serves food, so technically you can bring your toddlers with you, sit at a table, order food and get shitfaced.
Some of us feel that’s not right. So when “father of the year nominee” sits down with his youngsters, we all go into overdrive with “motherfucker” this and “cockgobbler” that.
Once he leaves we go back to discussing decoupage technique.
My 20-something stepson has this affliction. Sometimes when he’s talking, we’ll start reflecting it back at him, saying “fuck” every other word. Takes him a little time to notice.
Takes me back to my earliest days in the Navy, waiting in line somewhere with a couple of brand new Marines behind me. Every other word was fuck or a variation thereof. It took everything I had not to laugh - it was so incoherently ridiculous!
I like listening to the comedy channels on satellite radio, but when “comics” use it as their only adjective, I switch channels. Not offended, just not amused.
As for me, as soon as the Grand High Cheeto opens his mouth, I have to scream at the TV: “Shut your fuckin’ face!!” OK, I try to be careful now around my granddaughter, but that ass brings it out in me.
