A few weeks ago I was talking to a friend of mine who told me that he was feeling pressured to modify is behavior. In particular, his use of profanity was called into question. He went on to tell me that his superiors consider particular words and phrases to be offensive.
So, he was asked, and then ordered, to suppress his usage of the following words: fuck, motherfucker, cocksucker, cunt, prick, bastard, jackass, asshole, shit, damn, fuck-head, and ass-fuck, and phrases such as: shut the fuck up fuck-wit, fuck you, motherfucking ass licking jerk off, ass wipe fuck puppet, shit for brains, no good motherfucking son-of-a-bitch cocksucker.
He tried to plead his case to his superiors. My friend expressed his concern to them that without such words and phrases his intentions would be misinterpreted. He explained that he would be hard pressed to find alternative ways to express himself. The integrity of his emotions and his true feelings could not be completely or properly expressed without such words and phrases.
He refused restraint.
His superiors told him “Tough shit.” And that is why he called me. So I gave him this piece of advice, I told him “Why the fuck do you care what they fucking think? If they find what you say to be offensive tell them to fucking ignore you.”
My friend quietly contemplated my advice and then said “Fuck yeah, that’s what I’m gonna do.”
He has since lost his job, but he sure is a happy little motherfucker!
p.s. I agree repetition may be in order.

«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 600 of 2406 Newer› Newest»I just saw MissT at DM!
SIM, are you okay?
Can't wait to hear about this on the news. I hope no one was injured!
according to the amount of bulletins im gettin on myspace the whole of the uk felt it. waiting for aftershocks now.
radio 1 have just mentioned it so it must have been felt down in london too. Im ok just a bit shook up never felt an earhquake before haha my first thought was that there was a poltergheist hahaha im a loser lol
Is everyone okay?!
wow sim that is incredible! It must've been pretty strong
Hi anon. How are you? Ha ha. Gee doesn't have a sense of humor does he?
I think MissT is okay.
Sim, keep us posted if you can.
Hi anima, ergo. I just talked to miss t on aim. She's okay, just a bit freaked out.
does anyone know if theres always aftershocks or whether they are weaker or stronger? and how long they take? Me and miss t are nearly having panic attacks sitting on the edge of our seats waiting for them my eyes keep watering with fear haha
epicentre seems to have been 15 miles NE of Lincon, was 4.7 on richter scale
thats just off the news
SIM usually they are weaker but it can vary.
it's unlikely they'd be worse
thanks ergo
i was gonna ask you if nottingham was near there but you wont know lol
Sim, miss t, please try to stay safe.
Sim, I'm so sorry. Hang in there. But stay with us until this is all over. Okay. Miss T too.
I'm not sure about aftershocks, but since what you had was pretty big, I'm sure they will be smaller.
Hey BC!
apparently it's next county over from MissT
I see I missed Bert last night. And I feel bad that he didn't make first. That sucks. Bert you are privy to the next 200 comment turnover.
Is everyone cool with that?
and miss t is next county over from me i was two counties away. i just found out nottingham is the same distance from it as miss t pretty much. Hope my friends ok.
Im ok calmed down now. just a bit scary considering all the bad weather all over the world recently. and today with fim and everything. This planet is fucked. Its reacting to us like a parasite. How crazier can it get?
bc sorry i missed you going on aim and sorry i didnt talk much i was just reading news reports. I hope it didnt seem like i was ignoring you im sorry love. you better be on aim tomorrow its been too long since we chatted i love you ♥
sim do I have you on aim?
For once, I am not impressed with your advice...or expression of same.
anon you mean to Mayo?
Anima, berty didn't receive any spankings either! Shame, my love, don't worry about that sweets. All that matters is whether you're okay and well.
I have mobile AIM now so l'll be able to be on tomorrow ^_^
dont think so ergo. you will have to add me.
littlepurple3634
Glad you guys are all safe. :D
Well, Bert will just have to get his dirty little ass back here. ;)
This planet is fucked. Its reacting to us like a parasite.
You know, that's a great analagy. What with the super viruses & wacky weather that's exactly what it's doing.
As freaky as it is to experience and watch, though, the world's got to do something to protect itself.
hey guys, finally caught up.

I've never watched the Little Lulu cartoon, but I used to read the comics all the time when I was a kid, along with Ritchie Rich and the Archie ones, and I collected Star Wars comics for a time.
I'm off again

Bye, EP! Have a good night :)

I was going to ask you this earlier: How come we have to vote for you? Are you in some kind of election? ;p
Anon 9:05
Did I, or anyone else here, struck a nerve?
Anon @ 9:35
I'm so scared.
Fimble, you got that right.
MCRmy = Bwahahahahahaha!!
I consider VV to be a great friend.
bc, the watchers said they have polls on us so i just wanted win something in my life. so
vote fimble star
*not carrie ;)
Are you still there, comics anon?
There are no haters here. Maybe some who are slightly disappointed, some whose faith was lost, and some who are deeply concerned about a band and a man.
They will be wasting both our time and theirs.
still here.
9:47 PM
Bright, you are.
bright like a light, shining bright in the sky
Thanks for giving me the info Fimble. Then I shall vote for you.Vote for Fimble! Or something :D
Anon, I'm one of those disappointed and concerned fans, but not one to give up just yet.
Hi comics anon. Nice to meet you.
Hi RW *Squeezes*
Fimble, is carrie competing against you?
What the Anonymous at 9:47 said.
still here.
:)
What were our favourite comics growing up, and do you have have any faves now?
no, she just wants to be voted to. i fear she may win, so i have to step up my campaign.
*our=your
*squeezes BC*
can i be your campaign manager?
i want to print vote fim tshirts and balloons lol
if you were president of the blog what would you change? lol
I always vote for Fimble. She beats me up if I don't.
Fimble, well, I'm not sure who to vote for then. I guess I'll vote for tou :)
Hi mustard.
rw, you have to vote for me cos you are me glittery mate.
oh sim, you cant be my manager, i already have a pimp but you can go in for the vote to.
;)
RW, sounds like extortion to me. I bet she takes your lunch money too ^_^
Hate Gerard? No, sure. "Hate" is for Bush and his ilk.
Disappointed in a sad, scared man who is tearing down every beautiful thing he built and replacing it with his own ego and desire go fit in?
More like.
hye bc, jules, slash, rw, comic anon and the mcrmy.
rw, you have to vote for me cos you are me glittery mate.
Well, since you put it that way, okay :D
RW, sounds like extortion to me. I bet she takes your lunch money too ^_^
And she steals my crayons!
0_0
i hope you are not talking about me missis, i do not steal anything. :(
*whistles & looks away*
not too many actually. i really enjoyed reading tin tin.
used to watch the cartoon in french all the time too
i made my own comic book once in my cartooning class a few years back. still have it. it's buried beneath a ton of junk in my house
sorry for being so uninteresting!
My friend, my clever friend!
did you know tin tin the movie is currently being made by steven speilberg and peter jackson?
epic, i say!
Hush, love, hush,
Think it through.
Once it bubbles,
then what's to do?
Watch it close.
Let it brew.
Wait.
Sweeney Todd.
Guys, I must be away. I hope you all have a great night and I'll see you around tomorrow!
I just want to say something really quick.
Mayo:
I can't speak for all of us, but I can for myself. I'm not sure if I'm helping you anymore. I mean, I hope that I am and I hope that we are. I feel like you've done a lot of growing, enough that maybe you've reached this plateau of okayness.
In a way, I kind of hope you still need us, but in another way, I hope that you don't. I hope that you're finding the things you need inside now. If you aren't, we'll still be here. But, if you're okay, well, I'm glad.
And as a thought, I hope you're safe in someone's heart tonight. I hope you're warm and bundled up tight.
The wind is getting colder.
SS:
Miss you. We really hope everything's okay. No pressure at all. Just wanted you to know we hope your ears are burning.
Have a safe and peaceful night.
Goodnight everyone :)
I've been thinkin' flowers, maybe daisies, to brighten up the room!
Don't you think some flowers, pretty daisies, might relieve the gloom?
dont apologise for being uninteresting. i put people to sleep so you are doing a great job hehehe.
i am not into comic books but i LOVE superman. just love him, not in the attrction way, just the whole superhero way
Well played.
Comic ANON
No one who loves comics can be boring.
Déjà vu, "Mrs. Lovett".
Do you recall?
not too many actually. i really enjoyed reading tin tin.
used to watch the cartoon in french all the time too
I've never seen that one. I used to really love watching Rocket Robin Hood (probably before your time). I was so excited a couple of years ago to find it in reruns on TV, only to shudder at how simplistic and choppy the animation looks to me now.
i made my own comic book once in my cartooning class a few years back. still have it. it's buried beneath a ton of junk in my house.
That's cool! I've never tried anything like that, but when I was 14 I made a bunch of cardboard cutouts of the Yellow Submarine characters. My mother still has those in a shoebox somewhere.
Now don't be angry; all I ask of you
is that you justify a phrase or two....
Good, you got it!
did you know tin tin the movie is currently being made by steven speilberg and peter jackson?
Seriously?
Goodnight, Mustard :)
what was tin tin's dog called?
nighty ngiht slash sweet dreams
who remembers inspector gadget the cartoon?
the memories!
dont apologise for being uninteresting. i put people to sleep
It's true, she does ;)
I remember inspector gadget! I still whistle the theme song sometimes.
tintin et milou!
i loved inspector gadjet. the car was amazing. and his arms stretched out so he could climb.
god i forgot about that
hi again for a sec!
I didn't reada alot of comics as a kid but had Archie and the like occasionally
I used to read some UK ones, was it Wizz or something, there were two. I remember reading Tin Tin in hardcover like Asterix
I loved cartoons from the 60 -70's like the Catanooga Cats and the Warner Bros, and Hanna Barberra and shows like Sigmund the Seamonster, HR Pun n stuff and the Banana Splits
Where we left off:
before the barn door crowing
the cock by hens attended,
his eyes around him throwing,
stands for a while suspended.
Then one he singles from the crew,
and cheers the happy hen;
with How do you do,
and how do you do,
and how do you do, again.
who remembers inspector gadget the cartoon?
I remember it, but didn't watch it.
After my time, I'm afraid ;)
I used to watch Banana Splits, EP!
any one watch Battle of the Planets and Astroboy?
and Banana Man!
BANANA MAN
omg ergo, he was my best superhero. he eats a banana and turns into banana man.
does anyone remember penny crayon?
Goodnight mustard. Sweet dreams.
Fimble, I think batman is better than superman ;p
Hi Elena. Yes, Mr. Bush sucks. Period, End of story. And I will not be surprised if they titled him the worst president in our nation's history.
Poor RW. Did Fimble allegedly steal these crayons of yours? ^_~
nice talking to you all!
think of me whenever you hear tin tin! resurrectedwreck, seriously!
i bid you goodnight.
Have a good night, anon :)
nighty ngith comic anon sweet dreams
Astroyboy, I think they play that cartoon late at night on Cartoon Network here, but I'm not sure.
bc, i would have to disagree with you on that one. just remember who is fimtastic ok. hehehehe
Goodnight comic anon. Sweet dreams to you.
One of my co-workers is a huge Astroboy fan, EP, but I've never seen it myself.
Can't you think of nothin' else?
Always broodin' away on your wrongs
what happened heaven knows how many years ago!
RW Iloved Banana Splits! but wasn't Danger Island just the worst acted thing ever!!
OK he's some doosies how about Captain Pugwash and Clutch Cargo (where they had real mouths on the cartoon)
Mayo,
Sorry, I should have wrote this to you before my sleepy meds kicked in and I started seeing double. Oh well, oh well, oh well. How are ya on this...what day is it again? My calendar is of no use to me. I haven't gotten into the habit of ticking off the days. That worked for about a week and I was super excited about it, but soon one day started blending into another and another and another. Now, I have some things to look forward to again, so I will break out the marker and count em off. One by one. How sad is that? Yeah, I know. Completely aware of how fucked up that sounds. So...umm...yeah. What were we talking about again? Oh yeah, I was wondering how you are and what day it was. It's Tuesday and I hope you are somewhere that is safe and warm. A place where you are comfortable. A place where you can breathe in deeply and exhale.
Not one of those shaky, shallow breaths, but the good cleansing ones.
Love to YOU Always,
S
p.s. Did I take a breath while typing this?
here is Banana Man, i loved the cartoon!
The only thing I remember about Banana Splits is the Banana Splits characters & the theme music, EP.
nighty night fuck10, sweet dreams hunny
Fimble!! I loved Banana Man it was the Goodies did the voices
I used to watch Astro Boy all the time, they made new ones too
i dont know what astro boy is!
Well, guys, time for me to head 'er. Must be up early in the morning. Costumes to be made, you know. We don't want nekkid opera singers, now do we?
Nighty-night :)

Night! :D
nighty hun
No, y'see, the trouble with poet is how do you know it's deceased?
You know what I'd like to do, Mr. Todd?
What I dream if the business stays as good? Where I'd really like to go, in a year or so?
Don't you want to know?
Do you really want to know?
Hello my sweet potatoes!
Goodnight and sweet dreams RW, Sd10.
Will you trust me? Will you trust me?
I'll be waiting below for the whistle to blow.
Hello my sweet delicious and scrumptious Cupcake. How are you ol' delicious one?
Lovely BC! :)
I'm pretty good. How are you? what's been going on?
I read something about an earthquake in the UK.
Amazing isn't it? I hope everyone is ok.
Mrs. Lovett, you seem to be lost. This is not Fleet St. Perhaps you took a wrong turn.
My, but you do like a good story, don't you?
Good to hear Cupcake. I'm doing pretty good, but I have to add photos to my Ipod again because my old laptop fucked up(It was an old model) and died, so yeah, I'm starting all over again, but I'm alright.
A good story Mrs Lovett?.. on occasion. What is this story about?
Will you trust me? Will you trust me?
-------------------------------------
-------------------------------------
Wasn't this quote in Aladdin?
Oh BC, what a pain in the ass!
I hate things like that. I have nightmares about them.
A good story Mrs Lovett?.. on occasion. What is this story about?
There was a barber and his wife.
And he was beautiful....
There was a barber and his wife.
And he was beautiful....
Ahh... sounds like a familiar, but good story.
FYI
Second shows were just added for Chicago and Detroit.
Now we all deserve to die.
Even you Mrs. Lovett...even I.
"Desperately random." What does he mean?
Two more shows? fuck! aren't they tired?
I'm tired just thinking about it!
You see a lot, Doctor. But are you strong enough to point that high-powered perception at yourself? What about it? Why don't you? Why don't you look at yourself and write down what you see? Or maybe you're afraid to.
hi again
damn fim I just copied it off google. i'll have another look
hi cupcake how are you?
Hi ergo! :)
All that detail just from memory, sir?
Oh.. and I'm good. FYI.
Just not very on the ball. i just got out of the shower, I'm dripping everywhere.
try this one fim
Your turn, Doctor.
Promise me you won't disappear without telling me.
I'm right over here, so come and kill me!
4/15/71 isn't much of a code.
Uh.... so.... yeah....
*hums*
I think I'll go raid Mayo's fridge.
Hello Ergo, BC, Cupcake, Anonymous, Fimble, RW, Wathchers, Mayo, SS......
*pounce, tackle, hugs and smooches*
How is everyone tonight? Good, I hope.
Ohhhh.....literary night once again, I see.
literary character said:
"Will you trust me? Will you trust me?"
BC: I think that quote WAS in Aladin!
Here's my answer:
"Quoth the Raven, "Nevermore"!
:))
Who else LOVES Poe as much as I do?
So, once again, how are you ladies tonight?
Cupcake: It's so good to see you!
How's life treating you these days?
Ergo: How's the weather? Any storms brewing (literally and figuratively speaking - family being there and all) ;-)
BC: Vodka, eh? I have a new favorite vodka now. I was always an Absolute gal; but, I was introduced to GREY GOOSE over the weekend! I think I'm now a Grey Goose gal! :D
Hugs and Love,
~Namaste~

Who the hell are you people?
But who was he really? What was he like? We are told to remember the idea, not the man, because a man can fail. He can be caught, he can be killed and forgotten, but 400 years later, an idea can still change the world. I've witnessed first hand the power of ideas, I've seen people kill in the name of them, and die defending them. But you cannot kiss an idea, cannot touch it, or hold it. Ideas do not bleed, they do not feel pain, they do not love. And it is not an idea that I miss, it is a man.
Wendy! It's great to see you :)
I'm doing alright. Working through stuff.
How are you hun?
Oh Bert... hehe
hey guys, i am off for the night. i am tired and sleepy.
ergo, i watched it and i works. i have seen the guy before but i dont think i have watched a cartoon of it.
hey cupcake, nice to see you.
616, we are passing in the night :(
nighty night everyone, sweet dreams and thanks for the concern before.
xx
I'm good Cupcake! Thanks for asking. I sure do miss seeing your beautiful self around!
Have you been getting out much? Having some fun?
You would've liked him. He used to say that artists use lies to tell the truth, while politicians use them to cover the truth up.
Goodnight and sweet dreams Fimble.
Nice to sort of see you too Fimble Star! sleep well :)
Wendy, you're so sweet! can I keep you?
Fimble Star said...

nighty night everyone, sweet dreams and thanks for the concern before.
=========================
Good night Fimble! Sorry I (almost) missed you yet again :(
Perhaps I will haunt you in your dreams! ;-)
Sweet dreams, love!
What the fuck is going on in here? I come to Mayo's place for the lovelies, not you, unless you wanna party.
Some things belong on paper, others in life. It's a blessed fool who can't tell the difference.
Get on my party train then.
Party like a rock-star
cupcake said...
Nice to sort of see you too Fimble Star! sleep well :)
Wendy, you're so sweet! can I keep you?
=======================
Of course YOU CAN Cupcake!
I told you long ago....I AM YOUR'S
;-)
Helloooo Wendy!! How are you honey buns? *Runs and tackles Wendy with sloppy hugs and kisses*
Be right back!
It's a hard days' wages slaving away for madmen, what I've seen in life - it takes a lot to hold my interest.
If I wasn't such a bad woman on the page, I couldn't be such a good woman in life.
Second shows were just added for Chicago and Detroit.
I knew that five or six days ago before they added the dates. I even sent a letter to Ticketmaster telling them about it. I guess they weren't doing their jobs ;p
Bleeding Chaos said...
Helloooo Wendy!! How are you honey buns? *Runs and tackles Wendy with sloppy hugs and kisses*

Speaking of partying, does anyone know what goes in a Bloody Mary?... meh, never mind, I'll google it.
Who the hell are you people?
-------------------------------------
Ha ha that's what I like to know.
Has anyone heard from TJ today?
I think she was feeling a little 'disenchanted' this morning....
Where is you TJ????
Your very welcome sugarplum :D
Zuruzuru, zuruzuru!
WENDY *sorry I was yelling*
How are you?
I'm getting in the hot-tub. Who wants to help clean me up? I am a very dirty boy.
Maybe something will happen that can never unhappen, that scares you, doesn't it? But you need to think about it now, really take it in. Look at you, you think you've got it so damn hard. Well you hate being alone so let people in. Sure you might not answer the phone, but I don't see you throwing it away either!
I'm not asking you to say anything. I just want you to listen.
Cupcake: I make a killer bloody mary!
Buy the pre made bloody mary mix and add:
VODKA of course
and Tabasco Sauce
Or, just use tomato juice and then add the Vodka, Red Pepper, Celery Salt, Paprika and TASASCO.....
don't forget the celery stick or raw, long, green bean!
bert said...

Sleep well ergo! I forgot to add that...
