  • Perhaps one of the most interesting words
    in the English language today, is the word FUCK.
    Out of all of the English words which begin with the letter F, FUCK is the only word referred to as the "F" word, it's the one magical word.
    FUCK as most words in the english language,
    is derived from German,
    the word "fricken[?]", which means to strike.
    In English, FUCK falls into many grammatical categories.

    As a transitive verb, for instance.
    John FUCK-ed Shirley.
    As an intransitive verb, Shirley FUCKS.
    It's meaning's not always sexual;
    it can be used as an adjective, such as
    John's doing all the FUCK-ing work.
    As part of an adverb,
    Shirley talks too FUCK-ing much.
    As an adverb enhancing an adjective,
    Shirley is FUCK-ing beautiful.
    As a noun, I don't give a FUCK.
    As part of a word abso-FUCKING-lutely,
    or in-FUCKING-credible.
    And, as almost every word in the sentence,
    FUCK the FUCK-ing FUCK-ers.

    As you must realize,
    there aren't too many words
    with the versatility of FUCK.
    As in these examples describing situations
    such as fraud,
    I got FUCK-ed at the used car lot.
    Dismay, Aw FUCK it.
    Trouble, I guess I'm really FUCK-ed now.
    Agression, Don't FUCK with me buddy.
    Difficulty, I don't understand this FUCK-ing question.
    Inquiry, Who the FUCK was that?
    Dissatisfaction, I don't like what the FUCK is going on here.
    Incompetence, He's a FUCK-off.
    Dismissal, Why don't you go outside and play hide-and-go-FUCK yourself?

    I'm sure you can think of many more examples.
    With all these multi purpose applications,
    how can anyone be offended when you use the word?
    We say, use this unique, flexible word more often in your daily speech.
    It will identify the quality of your character immediately.
    Say it loudly, and proudly!
    FUCK you!

    I try to limit my swearing on the forum to words I've heard Eddie say or sing onstage. I figure those must be on the 'forum approved words list' ;) I have used worse once, but it was a word Sting has also sung on record - so I figure he's got me covered on that one. Thanks Sting! :)

    I'm learning SO much! :D
    The thing I like most about time is that it's not real. It's all in the head. Sure, it's a useful trick to use if you want to meet someone at a specific place in the universe and have tea or coffee- but that's all it is- a trick. There is no such thing as the past. It exists only in the memory. There is no such thing as the future. It exists only in our imagination. If our watches were truly accurate, the only thing they would ever say is "Now". That's what time it is. It's "Now". - Damien Echols

    One night at the dinner table our then 6 year old daughter asked, "Mummy what's a cunt?" :shock: She said ask your dad so I said I didn't know but not to say it because it was probably just something somebody made up. Mrs Veddertown said it was a good job she didn't say clitoris because she would have said there's no point in asking your father that one. Wham, bam, thank you maam!! :lol:

    Ladies and Gentlemen, this comes from Mr. Cox himself. Let it be known that Mr. Cox prefers a "more than occasional" fuck.

    I always find that they enhance songs... they are like little exclamations marks to points or thoughts that need to be highlighted.

    That said I have three kids and they know that there is a time and a place for swear words... for example at Grans house, public forums at school and other public places where seriously judgemental people lurk you do not swear.... but if you kick your toe and swear???? Who cares.... We listened to the 2009 Brisbane boot in the car the other day and my 9 year old commented that Eddie swore a lot and he decided that it was their show and was up to them. Obviously he can see that is is their platform and they can present their music/shows however they want. It is not like the swearing is new .....

    Just my thoughts......I always find swearing quite cleansing when required ;)

    Hey, parents!
    Just cuz your kid is in the audience doesn't mean Ed should not swear during a show. If you don't want your kid to hear Ed swearing, don't take them to the show...so fucking simple. Ed swearing during songs and such is part of a Pearl Jam show, even if kids are in the audience...Long Live Rock! :D

    I believe Ed touched on this point during the encore of MSG'03 night 2 (the one that isn't the DVD) while reading signs from the fans..

  • I think the "F" word belongs in Severed Hand. As we all know if you are game for an ummm "trip," F##K Yeah is typically what you would say. ;) Come on dragons, that has to be great. :lol:
