It's not really a curse word, I'd say. Like 'crappy' isn't a curseword.
I've been out of the abbey two days, I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong.

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.

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

Ah. I get the kidsy aspect of it. Which would explain why the students blushed and giggled.

So, it's just lame. An even better reason for not being used on Torchwood.

It's the kind-of-dirty kidsy word for vagina.
Well, that's just backwards.
It's ass-backwards.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Hey MM just wanted to make sure you saw my post above your last one--I TOTALLY wasn't calling anyone on this board low class! I am sorry if I gave that impression. I was more specualting on why there is so much odd pressure not to swear in the country.

I'm so over wrought about this Company X situation, I went out to get comfort food. My haul consisted of a pecan bar that didn't really statisfy, some spicy chips for later, some chocolate for later and a little plate of sushi that was truly excellent. The name was WISE roll, (tuna, salmon, cucumber and avocado.
It doesn't seem to be giving me any extra wisdom though.

They did too, my friend, they did too.
The fact that I was totally clueless made it even more hilarious. Then, they delighted in telling me all the bad words that our languages have in common...starting with roger. All this was shared in whispers...I'm pretty sure they were seminary students at that.
