Spike's Bitches 40: Buckle Up, Kids! Daddy's Puttin' the Hammer Down.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Mostly because I find Americans in general don't appreciate swearing as much as people this side of the pond. Am I just being crazy?

When my mom and I saw Four Weddings and a Funeral in the theater, I was giggling over all the "Fucks" in the first few minutes of the movie, but my mom said she thought they took it too far.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Hah! I win by one second!

I mean, Fuck yeah, I win by one fucking second!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Have to join the chorus, 'cause my first reflexive response was "Fuck, yeah you are!"

Um. Ya shitbag.

Heh. Excellent. I know I'm being a big generalising racist about it, really. But I really don't hear people swear much when I'm in the States. Maybe they're just trying to be polite around the foreigner.

Swear words in cute foreign accents are better appreciated than the local voices. It's hard to take "fuck" seriously when it sounds like it should be on PBS

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

should I be worried that the medical testing center is next to a pet cemetery? Also, very angry @ my doc for not filling out the test order form properly, and also not faxing a fixed copy TWO DAYS AGO when I brought it to their attention. Grrrrr.

Compassionately intolerant

My father swore vehemently but I never did in front of him. In his mind, flashing the peace sign was tantamount to swearing and the one time I did that in front of him, he very nearly broke my fingers. So yeah. Reserved the swearing for much later in life...went a little overboard with the pendulum swing into sailor-mouth and am now comfortably conscious of my swearing. I was so glad when frak came into vogue.

Totally. Plus "arse" is such a cute word. Even better when it's used as a verb....
