Perhaps on of the most interesting words in the English language today is the word Fuck.
Out of all of the English words that begin with the letter “F”, fuck is the only word that is referred to as the “F” word. It’s the one magically word just by its sound can describe pain, pleasure, hate, and love,

Fuck, as most words in the English language, is derived from German, the word ficken which means “to strike. In English, fuck falls into many grammatical categories.

As a transitive verb for instance; “John fucked Shirley.” As an intransitive verb; “Shirley fucks.” Its meaning’s not always sexual. It can be used as an adjective such as “John’s doing all the fucking work.” As part of an adverb; “Shirley talks too fucking much.” As an adverb enhancing an adjective; “Shirley is fucking beautiful.” As a noun; “I don’t give a fuck.” As part of word; “Absofuckinglutely”, or “Infuckingcredible.” And as almost every word in a sentence; “Fuck the fucking fuckers”.

As you must realize there aren’t too many words with the versatility of fuck. As in these examples describing such situations such as fraud; “I got fucked at the used car lot.” Dismay; “Ah fuck it.” Trouble; “I guess I’m really fucked now.” Aggression;” Don’t fuck with me buddy.” Difficulty; “I don’t understand this fucking question.” Inquiry; “Who the fuck was that?” Dissatisfaction; “I don’t like what the fuck is going on here.” Incompetence; “He’s a fuckoff.” Dismissal; “Why don’t you go outside and play hide and go fuck yourself?”

I’m sure you can think of many more examples. With all of these multipurpose applications, how can anyone be offended when you use the word? We say use this unique, flexible word more often in your daily speech. It will identify the quality of your character immediately. Say it loudly and proudly; Fuck you!”

On the troops. From the intro to his book “A time to lead”:

“Get that gun going!” I shouted again, as I looked back under my left arm and saw the troops come across the little footbridge. They were there. And they came running. Those peace-symbol-lovin’, foul-mouthed, cussin’, war-hatin’ draftee American soldiers came, right into the the firefight. They rushed into the smack of the bullets, and the whine of the ricochets. They were called forward and they came! God, I loved them.

Don’t you mean McWoverines?

“Have you no sense of decency, sir? At long last, have you left no sense of decency?”

Also too, why not line the halls with command detonated claymore mines or some of those Bond type movie laser traps and other booby traps?

This would make a great video game!!!!!!!

McWolverines!

And equip the dodge ball team with ninja throwing stars. They could form the National Shurikens Association.

Having been sniped at while on the flight line, the first thing I did was run like hell for a revetment.

with its tradition of deference to senior members, the road to power often requires discretion.

One of my senators, Merkley D-OR(a freshman senator), did not defer and has not been discrete.

I guess they don’t know about The Aluminum Foil Deflector Beanie (AFDB).

What Is An AFDB?

An Aluminum Foil Deflector Beanie (AFDB) is a type of headwear that can shield your brain from most electromagnetic psychotronic mind control carriers. AFDBs are inexpensive (even free if you don’t mind scrounging for thrown-out aluminium foil) and can be constructed by anyone with at least the dexterity of a chimp (maybe bonobo). This cheap and unobtrusive form of mind control protection offers real security to the masses. Not only do they protect against incoming signals, but they also block most forms of brain scanning and mind reading, keeping the secrets in your head truly secret. AFDBs are safe and operate automatically. All you do is make it and wear it and you’re good to go! Plus, AFDBs are stylish and comfortable.

The testimonials of this fine device convinced me they are a must have.
