Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Rapparee Date: 04 Jun 09 - 09:10 AM I ain't spent much time at sea, Kendall, but I was a Platoon Sergeant in the Infantry. And if THAT ain't good enough for you, you salt-caked old piece of crab bait, why, I can do better. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: kendall Date: 04 Jun 09 - 07:47 AM Anyone who has spent much time at sea knows that cussing is a sort of contest. Whoever comes up with the most gauche' disgusting rant wins. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: freda underhill Date: 04 Jun 09 - 04:41 AM Note: There are some deliberate mistakes in this piece, designed to lure the unwitting perfectionists into cyber-exposure (of the theoretical kind). An unctuous pedant, named Pratt was concerned about commas,and crap, a well-punctuated maze strangulated each phrase he transformed every "which" into "that". when informed that his couplet didn't scan he engaged a set square and a ruler and said, what is worse, a non-rhymthmic verse, or a sentence missing capitals, that's peculiar. Somewhere lost in a cacophany of letters some ideas, not all for the better transformed into space by italics and case into an onamatapaeiaic vendetta. If you're reading to check up on grammar I suggest there's a blockage (a hammer?) stuck somewhere intense It's advised you commence a verbal colonnic, or the latter. To all who adore a good phrase be it particular, painful or praise I suggest you withdraw from the verbiage war and do something useful with your propensity like teach english as a foreign language to refugees. f.u. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: GUEST,Will Fly, on the hoof Date: 04 Jun 09 - 03:48 AM Take care, dear friends, before using salty language - doing it well is not easy. Mark Twain was a frequent, elegant and seasoned cusser, but his swearing used to annoy his wife. One day, irritated beyond measure, she walked into his study and let rip with a string of high-flying words. Twain calmly took his pipe out of his mouth, lowered his paper, looked up at his wife and said, "My dear, the notes are all there, but the melody is missing." |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Janie Date: 03 Jun 09 - 11:59 PM Now I'm really mad. My post just got lost in cyberspace - which seems to be happening more than usual. Must be those vibes I sent out to shake up the cosmos backfiring on me. I have never, ever, heard my Dad curse or use foul language. I'm sure he has, but never, ever, in front of his girls or women, and once mature, probably very little in exclusively male company. I was in my mid 20's the first time I heard my mother utter an expletive in a moment of extreme frustration. She was mortified, and apologized every time she saw me for the next 3 weeks. There is, of course, a real difference between the use of foul language and the fine art of cursing. The difference, I suppose, between cussing and cursing. However, when I stop to reflect on it, (which I rarely do,) cursing bothers me because it nearly always incorporates derogatory connotations of women. Cussing may do the same, but tends to be more egalitarian, dealing with raw body functions or sexual connotations that are not gender specific. Now I'm really being quarrelsome. But not trying to be the PC police. Just something to think about. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: katlaughing Date: 03 Jun 09 - 11:32 PM My dad would start out with a "you sorry son of a..." He used quite flowery speech with a lot of archaic words gleaned from reading the Classics all of his life and being able to recite them by heart. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Rapparee Date: 03 Jun 09 - 09:47 PM REAL cussin' needn't be crude or vulgar to peel the paint stripe off of a hundred miles of highway. What could be nicer than to say to someone, "When you get home I hope your mother runs out from under the porch and bites your tail" -- but that's merely name-calling. REAL cussin' -- well, I leave such discussion of someone's morals, hygiene, ancestry, and personal habits to your imagination. REAL cursing needn't be crude or vulgar and indeed a curse can sound quite tame, such as "May your children grow up to be disappointments to you" or one of my favorites (from Ireland) "May the grass grow tall before your door." |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: olddude Date: 03 Jun 09 - 08:54 PM Kendall what was the story you told about the captain that needed some wind for his sails and cursed so much that he finally tossed a silver dollar at the gods .. now that was cursin at its finest .. you have got to post that story for everyone. I could stop laughing captain |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: kendall Date: 03 Jun 09 - 08:44 PM I have too much class for such a thread. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: gnu Date: 03 Jun 09 - 07:45 PM Perhaps a rude cussing thread with a warning? A "fuck off'? Then again, even with eloquece and decorum thrown to the wind, such a thread might be futile, given the SPAW factor. I dunno if I could go down, up, that road. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: kendall Date: 03 Jun 09 - 07:21 PM I know curses that I would never place here they are just too crude. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: gnu Date: 03 Jun 09 - 06:40 PM Proper cussing involves no "swearing", as Kendall's post so eloquently demonstrated. Little old ladies do just fine. At least, the lassies I goes wit knows how ta make a pair of orchids wilt in early spring. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Rapparee Date: 03 Jun 09 - 05:23 PM Cussin' -- don't get me started. Properly done it takes wit, intelligence, and imagination. 99% of people cuss like little old ladies at a tea party, and they're repetitious at that. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: gnu Date: 03 Jun 09 - 04:37 PM "blue suede"? Now, that would be a compliment. |
|
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: gnu Date: 03 Jun 09 - 04:33 PM There have been a few cursing threads in the past, but, I didn't go back and read them with respect to "regional flavour". Perhaps a thread to that effect might be educational. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Bill D Date: 03 Jun 09 - 04:32 PM I dunno... I never made it past "Yer mother wears blue suede combat boots" |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: gnu Date: 03 Jun 09 - 04:28 PM I dunno, K. Seems to me that The Maritimes, and I include Newfoundland, have common ground with ye fellers from just south. Cursing properly is well respected here, as I assume it is "down theyah" stateside. Perhaps it comes from our recent past connections to the tough environment of the "wood, wind and waters"? Or, perhaps others from far and wide could edify us on regional customs with regard to oneupyership? |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: kendall Date: 03 Jun 09 - 04:00 PM Where I come from, the Canadian Maritimes have a reputaton for cursing, and it seems like they really are the winners. quote from a certain friend from New Brunswick" "The son of a woore looked like he was in the middle of a sex change and the power went off." Pure poetry. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Bill D Date: 03 Jun 09 - 03:08 PM "...although i like puncuation i will not use it when someone tells me to so bollcks to you" I see...I think. But no one told you to. So...Please DON'T use puncuation! (That'll get him! Ha!) |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Little Hawk Date: 03 Jun 09 - 01:02 PM There used to be a site you could go to that would automatically generate abusive and insulting tirades toward whoever's name you plugged into the subroutine...1, 2, or 3 paragraphs of hilariously funny, often quite witty stuff would be generated in a couple of seconds. You could then block and paste it and send it to the unfortunate recipient. I wonder if it's still around? |
|
Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 03 Jun 09 - 12:58 PM I used to automatically skip over posts without capitalization because it indicated laziness, and I don't care what lazy people have to say. But so many people are posting from mobile phones now, some of which may not even be cabable of capitalization for all I know, that I give 'em the benefit of the doubt. Ya hear that, you lazy fuckers? You're off the hook. |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Stilly River Sage Date: 03 Jun 09 - 11:12 AM If you want to take it out on an automated system followed by an obtuse low-ranking telephone center employee I could give you my electric company information and let you go for it. I've paid my bill three times for May, finally got it to stick. Diligence is not rewarded--they want to penalize me for their faulty system. The main trouble with taking it out on folks like this is that it isn't their fault and it will just raise your blood pressure. ;-) |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Amos Date: 03 Jun 09 - 11:03 AM I think there is something strategically, profoundly flawed about making it all about them. After all, what do they know? Nuthin'. It's not about them. They are just a convenient excuse. There is no "there" there, and there is no "they" there, either. A |

Subject: RE: BS: I'm feeling quarrelsome From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 02 Jun 09 - 10:35 PM I saw a bumper sticker yesterday morning that said "My dachshund is smarter than your honor student." My first reaction was, "They must be making honor students pretty damned stupid nowadays. I've got compost that's smarter than a dachshund." But then it occurred to me that honor students have to get up early, ride a bus to school, pay attention in class, take exams, and do homework. All dachshunds have to do is eat, shit, and hump furniture. So who's smarter? |
