f*** you
Perhaps one of the most interesting and colorful words in the English language today is the word "f***." It is the one magical word which, just by its sound, can describe pain, pleasure, love and hate. In language, "f***" falls into many grammatical categories.

It can be used as a verb, both transitive (John f***ed Mary) and intransitive (Mary was f***ed by John). It can be an action verb (John really gives a f***), a passive verb (Mary really doesn't give a f***), an adverb (Mary is f***ing interested in John), or as a noun (Mary is a terrific f***). It can also be used as an adjective (Mary is f***ing beautiful) or an interjection (f***! I'm late for my date with Mary). It can even be used as a conjunction (Mary is easy, f*** she's also stupid).

As you can see, there are very few words with the overall versatility of the word "f***". Aside from its sexual connotations, this incredible word can be used to describe many situations:

1. Greetings "How the f*** are ya?"
2. Fraud "I got f***ed by the car dealer."
3. Resignation "Oh, f*** it!"
4. Trouble "I guess I'm f***ed now."
5. Aggression "f*** YOU!"
6. Disgust "f*** me."
7. Confusion "What the f***.......?"
8. Difficulty "I don't understand this f***ing business!"
9. Despair "f***ed again..."
10. Pleasure "I f***ing couldn't be happier."
11. Displeasure "What the f*** is going on here?"
12. Lost "Where the f*** are we."
13. Disbelief "UNFUCKINGBELIEVABLE!"
14. Retaliation "Up your f***ing ass!"
15. Denial "I didn't f***ing do it."
16. Perplexity "I know f*** all about it."
17. Apathy "Who really gives a f***, anyhow?"
18. Greetings "How the f*** are ya?"
19. Suspicion "Who the f*** are you?"
20. Panic "Let's get the f*** out of here."
21. Directions "f*** off."
22. Disbelief "How the f*** did you do that?"

It can be used in an anatomical description- "He's a f***ing asshole."
It can be used to tell time- "It's five f***ing thirty."
It can be used in business- "How did I wind up with this f***ing job?"
It can be maternal- "Motherfucker."
It can be political- "f*** D an Quayle!"


It has also been used by many notable people throughout history: "What the f*** was that?" Mayor of Hiroshima
" Where did all these f***ing Indians come from?" General Custer
"Where the f*** is all this water coming from?" Captain of the Titanic
"Thats not a real f***ing gun." John Lennon
"Who's gonna f***ing find out?" Richard Nixon
"Heads are going to f***ing roll." Anne Boleyn
"Let the f***ing woman drive." Commander of Space Shuttle "Challenger"
"What f***ing map?" Mark Thatcher
"Any f***ing idiot could understand that." Albert Einstein
"It does so f***ing look like her!" Picasso
"How the f*** did you work that out?" Pythagoras
"You want what on the f***ing ceiling?" Michaelangelo
"f*** a duck." Walt Disney
"Why?- Because its f***ing there!" Edmund Hilary
"I don't suppose its gonna f***ing rain?" Joan of Arc
"Scattered f***ing showers my ass." Noah

maybe we should produce something similar for the word rape
 






It's interesting how only the English give such power to words describing sex.

Other, less repressed, cultures just get on with it. Although they often have a thing about religion.

Old Aussie joke:-

"I was walking along on this f***ing fine morning, f***ing sun shining away, little country f***ing lane, and I meets up with this f***ing girl. f***ing lovely she was, so we gets into f***ing conversation and I takes her over a f***ing gate into a f***ing field and we had sexual intercourse."

You missed a famous historical use of the word, uttered in Gods' own country by King Harold in 1066 "watch out for those arrows, they could have your f***ing eye out"

There were reports at the time in Ye Olde Arsegus that he was also heard to say "where did those f***ing Frenchies come from", but very few people believed anything they read in that newspaper at the time. Plus ca change.
