What The Heck Happened to “Fuck”?
April 26, 2008
An astute reader expressed concern yesterday that the tagline of this blog currently read as follows:
“Step in, Sit Down, Chill The Heck Out” — I said that
She speculated that perhaps WordPress had ordered the removal of what those who are observant as she is will recall as the original tagline:
“Step in, Sit Down, Chill The Fuck Out” — I said that
(emphasis added).
No, WordPress doesn’t seem to give a flying fuck about evocative language on blogs they host. Actually, as part of my totally fucking hilarious April Fools joke, I changed “fuck” to “heck”, and I just forgot to change it back.
Deepest apologies to those readers who have been scandalized by my egregious use of the despicable slimy weak right-wing shitbag euphemism “heck”. I have restored the honest strong liberal evocative term “fuck” to its rightful place in the tagline.

Joke ‘em, if they can’t take a fuck.
A Robin Williams line, on a PBS show, where he played a homeless person as the MC outside the Great American Music Hall.
N he was the MC, in Tux, on the inside.
Great show. Wish I had a Youtube to it.
But ya get my drift?
Joke em, if they can’t take a fuck.

Don’t fuck with the heck in life, I guess, is today’s lesson?

DCap, you invoked the Brothers Gibb?
I don’t know whether to be wowed or maligned.
But I DO love them. From Mining Disasters, to The Kennedy State to Knights On Broadway. Them boys rocked and sang and wrote with conviction.
Word.

You shouldn’t swear. Swearing is bad.
