Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[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.
Language always has stuff like that. Not to mention cultural crap as well, ie. "cunt" being the epic, don't use ever, swear word in the US, and in the UK and Ireland, not really so much. "The Commitments" shocked me with that one when I first read it. And Irish English and mine are much closer than English and Hebrew.
