[QUOTE="deleted member, post: 74393, member: 816"] who is brooks? anyway, i'm bout as guilty as anyone when it comes to dropping the occasional profane word. i do however find it funny that "fu8k" or "f&^k" is acceptable to some and "fuck" is not. as if the exclusion and/or addition of one or two particular letters somehow changes the context or connotation. same goes with using lame ass words as PC replacements for its four letter counterpart. for example, i find "who the fudge does he think his is?" much more offensive than "who the fuck does he think he is?". the two phrases have the exact same meaning and connotation. however, the prior assumes that i am some PC pansy ass who is overly sensitive to words. whereas, at least the speaker of the latter is giving me the benefit of the doubt that i am able to sort thru context and make my own judgments on the speaker and his or her statements without putting too much stake in how they may or may not use a particular four lettered adverb, verb, noun, adjective or idiom. as far as the site is concerned, do whatever the hell you want. its no skin off of my tongue. however, i've never noticed it to be much of a problem. maybe that's because i am the problem. :;:huh [/QUOTE]
