Bullshit

[ken4ord]

Well I was reading the Gaurdian this morning and in it was an article that the FCC has banned the word bullshit. I guess they have two words now in their banned words list, fuck and now bullshit. It is unbelieveable I think. Aren't there other words that are more offensive? I can't imagine how much was spent on deciding on wherther to ban the word or not. Well I think it is bullshit.

 

 

Oh here is a link Gaurdian article

Yeah they also have Trailer Park Boys on the TV up yonder. That shit would never fly down here.

 

Unfortunately there are a bunch of uptight fuckers that run this country...It's bullshit.

[mountainmatt]

Can't wait to see South Park get ahold of this one...

[Dechristo]

D'you have a personal affinity in the mixing of terms "coprophilia" and "South Park"?

[fear_and_greed]

I hope I never have to say genre or evocative.

[Dechristo]

And again this morning - Sheila Rogers was interviewing David Suzuki, and he referred to himself as a "shit disturber". But then, Suzuki and the CBC are all part of the pinko-commie bleeding-heart liberal campaign to destroy everything that's right and pure and good in the world, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

 

But Sheila Rogers? I would have expected her to at least pretend to blush or something, maybe make a weak joke to try to divert attention from such grossly offensive language, but she didn't say a word. And a few weeks ago, she was talking to someone - Leonard Cohen, I think? - and she said "fuck". Right out loud, on a national radio program in broad daylight. Well, I nearly choked on my granola. "Fuck"? Sheila Rogers? What's this world coming to?

 

We need something like the FCC up here, telling us what words we can and cannot hear. I don't think all those men died in the Battle of Britain, and in the shipping lanes of the Atlantic, and on the beaches of Normandy, and in the Scheldt Estuary, just so Sheila Rogers can say "fuck" any time she damn well feels like it. Honestly!

Fourth Bruce:Bruce: Crack tube! (Sound of cans opening) Any questions?

 

Second Bruce: New-Bruce, are you a Poofter?

Fourth Bruce: Right, that concludes the readin' of the rules, Bruce.

 

First Bruce: This here's the wattle, the emblem of our land. You can stick it in a bottle, you can hold it in your hand.

 

Everybruce: Amen!

 

(NB: The Album versions continue with the Philosopher's song The TV version continues below....)

 

First Bruce: Right, let's get some Sheilas.

 

(An Aborigine bunts in with an enormous tray full of enormous steaks.)

 

Fourth Bruce: OK.

 

Second Bruce: Ah, elevenses.

 

Third Bruce: This should tide us over 'til lunchtime.

Voice Over: Number nine. The ear.

 

*****Album Version Continued******

 

(And now all four Bruces launch into the Philosopher's song)

 

Immanuel Kant was a real piss-ant who was very rarely stable.

Heideggar, Heideggar was a boozy beggar who could think you under the table.

David Hume could out-consume Wilhelm Freidrich Hegel.

And Whittgenstein was a beery swine who was just as sloshed as Schlegel.

There's nothing Nieizsche couldn't teach 'ya 'bout the raising of the wrist.

Socrates, himself, was permanently pissed.

John Stewart Mill, of his own free will, after half a pint of shanty was particularly ill.

Plato, they say, could stick it away, half a crate of whiskey every day!

Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle,

And Hobbes was fond of his Dram.

And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart:

"I drink, therefore I am."

Yes, Socrates himself is particularly missed;

A lovely little thinker, but a bugger when he's pissed.

MrE no one is going to read that.

Speaking of bullshit, I clicked on one of the hosted ads. I wonder who is going to provide the $500 worth of rock climbing lessons . I myself want to see what mother nature chose to bestow in terms of earthquakes, glaciers and other natural happenings.
