A close, respected friend and colleague broke the news to me today that my use of the f-word on this blog is inappropriate. I was under the impression that the f-word was a favored tool of consensus building in professional settings. I am grateful to her for bringing this to my attention. Otherwise, I might have continued to drop the f-bomb, offending valued friends, family members and guests.
I'm just fucking kidding. Of course I'm going to keep writing it. All five people who read this are OK with that, right? Let's have a poll:
Q: Should Excruciatingly Normal become a "fuck free" environment?
Your volley.
Less than 24 hours to BlogOrlando07!
I am so fucking excited. I will be sharing air with BlogOrlando keynote speaker Shel Israel, rock star of the blogging world, author of blogging manifesto Naked Conversations and of course his own blog, Global Neighbourhoods.
I'll be the blogging groupie in the front row, Shel. I'm not gonna throw my bra atcha, though. So don't ask.
You are perfect example of how great it is to know a person online and off - I truly enjoyed looking at your blog after our brief conversation and will add my opinion to keep your voice yours. This is your space and no one has a right to tell you how to behave on your own territory.
should have been your post title. Fu*k is the most universal word used today. Challenge your conservative friend to find another word that can be used as a verb, noun, pronoun, adjective, adverb, preposition, conjunction, and interjection. And, on a good day (although tricky) can be used as a participial phrase.
We must use the word fu*k because we've got unlimited rights to it. It's ours, we the people...we the fucking people.
It's the bra throwing that offend me.
Fuck no ... in fact I'd read more if you adding more fucks, fucking, fuckheads, fuck thats, fuck this and just plain ol' fuck fuck fuck.
Thanks for your concern on this matter. Fucking A!
