The Bloody F word

[kiwi_2005]

There are only ten times in history where the "F" word has been considered acceptable for use:

10. What the f**k do you mean we're sinking? -- Capt. E.J Smith of RMS Titanic, 1912

9. What the f**k was that? -- Mayor of Hiroshima, 1945

8. Where did all these f**king indians come from? -- Custer, 1877

7. Any f**king idiot could understand that. -- Einstein, 1938

6. It does so f**king look like her! -- Picasso, 1926

5. How the f**k did you work that out? -- Pythagoras, 126 BC

4. You want WHAT on the f**king ceiling? -- Michelangelo, 1566

3. Scattered f**king showers, my arse! -- Noah, 4314 BC

2 Aw c'mon. Who the f**k is going to find out? -- Bill Clinton, 1999

1. Geez, I didn't think they'd get this f**king mad. -- Saddam Hussein, 2003

:D

I'd say SubSim is one of the very very few language-filtering websites.

Add Ubi forums to that last. Especially on the IL2 forum it's hilarious when a discussion on topics such as propeller pitch(you can coarsen the pitch) or WW2 Luftwaffe aces(Hans Joachim Marseille) gets censored :lol:

Hmm..stupid. 'Gay' is also a foul word no matter what way it is used on the gamespot.com forums. Any cuss word, probably even near the word crap would be a violation of the TOA, and people report it as an abuse to the admin on purpose and say it was wrong..when they know it wasn't!

Btw, why is that "F word" banned pretty much everywhere on the net ? It sounds strange to me, on a regular basis I see some "fecking", "frikkin" (I guess it's based on it ?) and so on, but there's no way you can say f-u-ck. I noticed sh-i-t is also banned (on subsim at least) but you say "crap" as much as you want, among other foul language. How come ?

I guess that's my fault. I was raised to consider some words offensive, and people who used them in casual conversation were...hmmm.... well, not very resourceful. ;) Sort of like people who insist on picking their nose and eating the results.

On the Ship Simulator fourms (dont laught at me) I got in trouble for putting the word Crap in a post.:rotfl:

[UnderseaLcpl]

I am ashamed to say that many times this word constitutes a preponderance of my vocabulary. Amazing how many times it can be used in one sentence isn't it?

[FIREWALL]

Any of you watched South Park at 11:30 pm ?

The F- word is about the only one not used. :rotfl:

[Task Force]

Just walk down the halls of the schools around here. You hear The *******,b****,d**,a**,ect words all the time. These kids have worse mouths than some of you adults:lol:

[Stealth Hunter]

Meh, they're just words in my opinion. I don't care if you swear or not. Hell, if you said balderdash, fiddlesticks, or humbug at one time, you were cursing.

Reminds me of South Park on cursing.:lol:

:-?

[Stealth Hunter]

You have to admit, South Park can be pretty funny... especially the 300 parody one (with Les Bos).

:rotfl: Be glad your parents are not listening. You would have a entire bar of soap (My parents dont do this) in your mouth.:yep:

I watch it every nite after the Simpsons.

I sleep better after a good laugh. :yep:

I'm torn between that one and the Warcraft one for "best parody of media" Southpark episode.

[Stealth Hunter]

LOL.

"Looks like you're about to get pwned... ARGH!!"

Ahh poppycock. When I'm at work the foul language flows from everyone in a near-constant torrent, it's just part of the working life. As my boss put it: Expletives make the world go round. The funny thing is I very rarely swear at home. I guess I must use up my days quota at work!:rotfl:

[Tango589]

LOL.

"Looks like you're about to get pwned... ARGH!!"

*smashes No-Lifer's head*

I know this is a proper dunce question, but without laughing too hard can someone please tell me what 'pwned' means as I don't really get Internet Speak or what ever the hell it's called. :oops: Is there some sort of online dictionary?:roll:

[Paul Riley]

Does this one count?
"I really wanted to screw my brains out tonight,but I'm in no condition to f**k" - Thomsen from Das Boot
:88) :rotfl:

God,that scene was hilarious! ,and as he exited the scene almost dead he just managed a sickly "...Sieg Heil *burp*" :rotfl:

[Stealth Hunter]

LOL.

Basically means OWNED, as in you've done something that has failed epically or someone has dominated you in something online (like maybe a fight or in a video game).

Cheers Mikhayl and Stealth Hunter!:up:

I was never sure how to pronounce it: 'pawned' or 'poned' or some such.:doh:

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=pwned

Here's a reference:up:

Pwned doesn't' really have a pronunciation. It's sound is formed entirely from the way it looks. Poh-owned, poned, pee-owned, and owned are common pronunciations. Similar to "wtf". Pronouncing it "what the *******" Is a misrepresentation. So is "wutuff"or wut the eff. Words like these exist purely in the state of the human mind upon reading them.

1337 is generally regarded as the most ignorant form of communication on the planet, except for binary , English, and whatever it is that is supposed to be telling a man that a woman wants something.

On the UBI forums you have to refer to Richard O'Kane, because 'Dick' is censored.

Read any book from the late nineteenth century, and you'll find writers pushing the limits by using 'd____d'. Before that no one refered to the word in print at all, except in serious usage meaning literally condemned to hell. One of George Carlin's 'Seven Words You Can't Say On Television', and one we routinely avoid as well, is used as a descriptive in the Bible itself when a warrior king threatens to kill every male child, and refers to "every one that p***eth against the wall".

When I was in the navy we used that kind of language all the time, but never in front of civilians, and certainly never in front of women. Today every high-school girl I see uses those words without a second thought. I doubt it was really much different in earlier times, we just don't get it passed down by conteporary writers; though we know about it because more than one old novel refers to a woman "swearing like a sailor", or "swearing like a stevedore".

Is there anything wrong with it? Probably not. And I agree - psuedo-swearing is just silly. But the point is to be polite, not perfect. We try to not use this kind of word because it really does offend some. It's like modern cars with super-bass blasting all over the neighborhood: you have a right to say it, but others have a right to not have to hear it as well.
