My favorite word
I have what is known commonly as a “potty mouth” and it has been mentioned to me on occasion that I have a “mouth like a sailor”. First off, as a father of young children, I hope to god that I don’t have a potty mouth, because then it would be full of shit and piss filled diapers, that would suck more than anything has ever sucked before. And the whole mouth like a sailor thing doesn’t sound right either (no sea-men jokes please).  Why don’t we just say that I have a colorful vocabulary and shut the fuck up about it?
 On occasion, people feel they need to correct vulgarity in speech or writing, this really pisses me off. Ok, one caveat, I try to limit it to adults, I give the kids the opportunity to learn profane language on their own, but when they turn 18, all bets are off. As an example, just recently I was testing out my new social bookmarking plug-in and I submitted one of my posts to reddit.com, it was The Simpson’s Movie gets teacher fired. One of the comments on reddit was:
Another effective point spoiled by the use of the word fucktard.
I didn’t get it, “fucktard” was my favorite part of that post. What an uppity asshole, did the use of my colorful language diminish my point? Well, evidently yes in his book. Well I always say, you have to break a few eggs if you want to make an omelet, but it sounds better if you say “You have to break a few motherfucking eggs if you want to make a donkey-raping omelet”.
My favorite diatribe on the word fuck is in the clip below, somebody added some animation to it… but be careful, it may include some obscene words, enjoy.

For my 3 years of active service in the army, “fuck” was the most common and useful word in my vocabulary. From the legendary “Pass the fucking salt, motherfucker” to “Fuck this fucked-up shit”, I and my fucking friends only needed a few helper words to complete our vocabularies. After a year in Thailand, I was in real fear about returning home to sensitive ears. “Fucking hell”, which is British I believe, is my favourite (sic) expression, followed by the American “Fucking fucker”.

What a fricktard.
I have the biggest potty mouth in the world and I couldn’t care less. My new favorite word right now is Douche Nozzle. Feel free to use it as often as you feel it’s needed.
Remember when Fredo’s character in “Deer Hunter” kept saying “Fucking Ay”? That was awesome!
“Fredo’s character”. LOL!!!
That poor guy. Everybody else in the Godfather is noted for their body of work. I don’t know him as anything other than “Fredo” and “Deerhunter Fredo”. He did such a good job playing a fucktard that he is now branded with it for life.
Way to go fucktard. You really screwed yourself.
I wish Billy Mac or one of you other flick-o-philes would do a piece on actors who are completely identified with a role. The main one that comes to me (no pun intended) is Ned Beatty. I can’t ever see him without thinking of “Like a hog” and seeing a hillbilly riding him around the forest.
Good idea, although, I may have to put some thought (and therefore effort) into the post… so the idea does have some drawbacks. I can already think of a few, with the grand-daddy of them all (Luke…).
