If you don't like effing, even funny effing, don't look. There, their, they're bloody well done ;)

Not for me either - I did not get as far as no.16.

Oops just seen that this is an old thread
Must have missed it the first time round.

I looked! ?

Baggs once you warn a person not to look they will be unable resist the temptation to
Effing well look!

??

Thanks Sparklefizz. I was thinking of going to see the film. I don't mind the odd f word but not if its overdone.

Oh, this lose/loose confusion is driving me mad. I see it everywhere now that it annoys me. Grrrr.

There is another couplet that could be added:

Something you lose is effing lost.
Something you loose is effing undone (thinking shoelaces here; I'm up for improvements on this one!)

Ha! I fu**ing love it, especially 16 which drives me crazy ?

Personally, I find that a well placed expletive is both effective and cathartic. If used too liberally, it becomes useless. So I like to save it for special occasions!

I guess the "must disapprove out loud" gene is very strong in some people, elegran. It's the only explanation I can think of for such odd behaviour.

Just reminding those who didn't like it that no-one was forced to read this thread - you were specifically warned in the title!

Love number 16

Don't like that !

If you don't like the F word, don't go and see the film "A Star is Born" because every other word is "F***". I really enjoyed the film and can tolerate the odd f* in context, and I know the film is about a rock star and we know that is how he might speak, but it was overdone.

I will also post this under Films.

The word doesn't bother me at all, I just don't find this funny at all.
I can laugh at crude and rude but..
..
each to their own of course

Shouting "F**k off" is universally understood, I've found. When being harassed by a gang of young men in Turkey who were becoming increasingly intimidating, I shouted it very loudly. And they scarpered quickly!

I never say the 'f' word but I think it can have huge comedic value especially when someone says it in front of me and my children fall about laughing because someone said 'f***, in front of mum!'

Straight out of the Fenland tractor driver's phrase book.

kitty,

Sorry, baggs, but I love it.

Stop apologising!

Probably the only way these days to teach younger people Grammar ?

Not for me sorry, cannot tolerate that word, sorry Bags x

Love it. ?
