Patience my dear, unless you have paid for the premium version, there will be some flippin’ ads for special interest groups.
I couldn't find the clip with his father at the fuse box in the basement swearing up a storm. "My father worked in curse words the way some men work in oils." classic
OK, I know I'm not the only frackin' person here who turns from mild-mannered Pedestrian to "The Motorist" when they get behind the wheel.
I now live in an area where I drive 16 miles to my bank, have 1 stop sign at either end with no stops in between, and don't see a single vehicle until I get within a couple of blocks of the place. It Mellow Yellow for me, baby. When I lived up north it was a different story.
Real proud of you Beth for your double sanitizing of the foul F word. Freakin, frackin, flippin, farkin, etc., came from friggin which was the first attempt to sanitize the F word back in the early 1960s, possibly earlier. I first learned it from reading Catcher in the Rye. Not fully understand the meaning or impact of this semi-sanitized word, I used it in English class. I was sentenced to write a 10-page single-spaced typed essay exploring the root of the word and why it was considered a form of swearing. It was due the next day. The other kids laughed knowing there was no way I could pull that off by the next day. I enlisted the help of my dad, a doctorate, and he had me read all about Germanic goddess Frigg in his Encyclopedia Britannica. I had my 10 pages the next day and to the dismay of the others, received an A for outstanding research.
