The Least Socially Acceptable Curse Word

[Mac Sirloin]

They don't bleep stuff here. Usually I watch Showcase (which is Canadian) or some Networks we get from Rochester. Both of them just change the words to something stupid. "I feel like shit crud."

It just looks silly.

They aren't drawing attention to it, though. It only looks weird when you watch really carefully or have seen the movie before.

They do bleep Trailer Park Boys, but it wouldn't as funny if you could hear everything.

On that note, apparently Lahey and Randy (John Dunswoth and Pat Roach) came to the local College to do their show. They signed the poster "To the Shit Tank (Shark tank, College bar),in the shittiest Shitville in the shitticane."
Or something. it made me smile.

I'd rather have the bleep.

I'd rather have the bleep for T.V. shows, but I don't really care otherwise. Not like I watch anything But TPB anyway.

If I ever get on daytime TV, i'm going to make it so they bleep the word cunt in morse code.

The abrupt blackout.

You mean the intentional abrupt blackout done by the creators of the show for one of two reasons:
(1) Incredibly meaningful artistic symbolism
or
(2) They had no idea how to end it and decided to pretend like they had planned to do (1) all along.



A few people have said words to the effect of "I don't say XXXX except for in jest". I wonder if that's really true, or if people hide behind the 'I'm joking!' defence when they say something they know is distasteful.

The abrupt blackout.
