there. Besides the literal translation and the emotional feeling.

other 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go0 |' a. e# |. E/ B
together of course. A little accedental humor there. The reason that$ b" f' Z& a: V9 z
Piss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were6 K* a7 X* c7 n% A+ A$ p0 c
certain ladies that said "Those are the 2 I am not going to say. I! p/ O2 X/ J7 ` Z3 y
don't mind Fuck and Shit but 'P' and 'C' are out.", which led to such1 q. U% \6 H9 ]; {2 ^7 h4 g5 f% g0 A
stupid sentences as "Okay you fuckers, I'm going to tinckle now."

accedental humor, I don't wanna get into that now because I think

imprortant word. It is the beginning of life, yet it is a word we use to

a great sentence. I wish I knew who said it first. I agree with that but
