Opposite of Shinola

The most functional word in the English language is... dang. That's right, dang ! Consider this:

You can be dang faced, dang out of luck, or have dang for brains. With a little effort, you can get your dang together, find a place for your dang or, decide to dang or get off the pot.

You can smoke dang, buy dang, sell dang, lose dang, find dang, forget dang, and tell others to eat dang and die. Some people know their dang, while others can't tell the difference between

dang and Shinola.

There are lucky dangs, dumb dangs, crazy dangs and sweet dangs. There is bull dang, horse dang and chicken dang. You can throw dang, sling dang, catch dang, shoot the dang, or duck when dang

hits the fan.

You can give a dang or serve dang on a shingle. You can find yourself in deep dang or be happier than a pig in dang. Some days are colder than dang, some days are hotter than dang and some days are just plain dangty.

Some music sounds like dang, things can look like dang, and there are times when you feel like dang. You can have too much dang, not enough dang, the right dang, the wrong dang or a lot

of weird dang.

You can carry dang, have a mountain of dang, or find yourself up dang creek without a paddle. Sometimes everything you touch turns to dang and other times you fall in a bucket of dang and come out smelling like a rose.

When you stop to consider all the facts, it's the basic building block of life. And remember, once you know your dang, you don't need to know anything else.

This is either from George Carlin or Dennis Miller, if I recollect correctly.

Oh, but don't we have ourselves some potty mouths around here? Reading Ex's post made me think of this little ditty... the fact that it technically doesn't contain vulgarity is what makes it funny..

WHO IS JACK SCHITT???

The lineage is finally revealed. Many people are at a loss for a response when someone says "You don't know Jack Schitt!" Read on and you'll be able to handle the situation intelligently.

Jack is the only son of Awe Schitt and O. Schitt. Awe Schitt, the fertilizer magnate, married O. Schitt, a partner of Kneedeep & Schitt, Inc.

Jack Schitt married Noe Schitt, and the deeply religious couple begat 6 children: Holie Schitt, Fulla Schitt, Giva Schitt, Bull Schitt, and the twins, Deap Schitt and Dip Schitt.

Against her parents' wishes, Deap Schitt married Dumb Schitt, a high school dropout.

After 15 years of marriage, Jack & Noe Schitt divorced. Noe Schitt later married a Mr. Sherlock, and out of devotion to her children, decided to hyphenate her last name, and became Noe Schitt-Sherlock.

Dip Schitt married a woman named Loda Dung, who became Loda Schitt. The couple produced a nervous son, Chicken Schitt.

Fulla Schitt and Giva Schitt, inseperable thoughout childhood subsequently married the Happens brothers. The local newspaper announced the Schitt-Happens wedding, which was quite an event. The Schitt-Happens children were Dawg, Byrd, and Hoarse.

Bull Schitt, the prodigal son, left home to tour the world. He returned from his travels with his Italian bride, Piza Schitt.

So, NOW if someone says "You don't know Jack Schitt", you can beg to differ. You not only know Jack Schitt, but the entire Schitt list!

Actually - it is my opinion that dang can't hold a candle to the "f" word. The "f" word can hold every grammatical position in a sentence.

Perhaps we could even get the great LCM to visit our humble websight and he could diagram a few sentences for us....

Pirate,

Re:"Now you can hear at least four of those words every week on "South Park."

I watched South Park only one time and was pretty disgusted. I'd a thought you could hear every one of the seven. Call me a prude but the general level of vulgarity that surrounds us furthers the coarsening of our culture, IMO. And TWI encouraged the most vile language. Even the women used the "F" word with careless abandon.

Hope,

Re:"Make sure your kids aren't around."

Sorry but I don't see the humor. I remember when I was in elementary and junior high school that we would all laugh at vulgar words. But when we grew up most of us realized that we laughed because we thought it was "naughty" but ultimately lower class. Hence the name "vulgar".

sudo,

It's more likely to be found funny than not because certain principles of humor are employed.

The contrast between the vulgar subject matter, and the documentary style, not to mention Vivaldi's sound-track makes the shock of the narration all the more "humorous."

Had it been delivered by a familiar low-life to the tune of the latest Parental Advisory-labeled pop music, the narration would be predictable and boring. A cliche upon a cliche.

Though I tend to avoid profanity most of the time, and consider it a crutch for the linguistically crippled, there are times when it is not only appropriate but the preferable choice. Sad to say, profanity is now the lingua franca of a generation or three. The truth of the narrative is self-evident.

In other words, even for contemporary humor it was shallow and crass, but pretty f*ckin' funny, even so.

T H E "F" - W O R D S T Y L E G U I D E

Perhaps one of the most interesting and colorful words in the English language today is the word "f**k".

It is the one magical word which, just by its sound, can describe pain, pleasure, love, and hate.

In language,"f**k falls into many grammatical categories.

It can be used as a verb, both transitive (John f**ked Mary) and intransitive (Mary was f**ked by John).

It can be an action verb (John really gives a f**k), a passive verb (Mary really doesn't give a f**k), an adverb (Mary is f**king interested in John), or as a noun (Mary is a terrific f**k).

It can also be used as an adjective(Mary is f**king beautiful) or an interjection (F**k! I'm late for my date with Mary).

It can even be used as a conjunction (Mary is easy, f**k she's also stupid).

As you can see, there are very few words with the overall versatility of the word "f**k".

Aside from its sexual connotations, this incredible word can be used to describe many situations:

1. Greetings "How the f**k are ya?"

2. Fraud "I got f**ked by the car dealer."

3. Resignation "Oh, f**k it!"

4. Trouble "I guess I'm f**ked now."

5. Aggression ".... YOU!"

6. Disgust "F**k me."

7. Confusion "What the f**k.......?"

8. Difficulty "I don't understand this f**king business!"

9. Despair "F**ked again..."

10. Pleasure "I f**king couldn't be happier."

11. Displeasure "What the f**k is going on here?"

12. Lost "Where the f**k are we."

13. Disbelief "UN....INGBELIEVABLE!"

14. Retaliation "Up your f**king foot!"

15. Denial "I didn't f**king do it."

16. Perplexity "I know f**k all about it."

17. Apathy "Who really gives a f**k, anyhow?"

18. Greetings "How the f**k are ya?"

19. Suspicion "Who the f**k are you?"

20. Panic "Let's get the f**k out of here."

21. Directions "F**k off."

22. Disbelief "How the f**k did you do that?"

It can be used in an anatomical description- "He's a f**king ....."

It can be used to tell time- "It's five f**king thirty."

It can be used in business- "How did I wind up with this f**king job?"

It can be maternal- "Motherf**ker."

It can be political- "F**k Dan Quayle!"

It has also been used by many notable people throughout history:

"What the f**k was that?"

Mayor of Hiroshima

"Where did all these f**king Indians come from?"

General Custer

"Where the f**k is all this water coming from?"

Captain of the Titanic

"That's not a real f**king gun."

John Lennon

"Who's gonna f**king find out?"

Richard Nixon

"I did *NOT* f**k her!"

Bill Clinton

"Heads are going to f**king roll."

Anne Boleyn

"It's someone's 100th f**king birthday today!"

Willard Scott

"Any f**king idiot could understand that."

Albert Einstein

"It does so f**king look like her!"

Picasso

"How the f**k did you work that out?"

Pythagoras

"You want what on the f**king ceiling?"

Michaelangelo

"You say they're free?? F**k yeah... let me have ten of them!"

Moses

"F**k a duck."

Walt Disney

"Why?- Because its f**king there!"

Edmund Hilary

"I don't suppose its gonna f**king rain?"

Joan of Arc

"She wants how much f**king money?!?!?"

Donald Trump

"Look! Almost every f**king kernel popped!"

Orville Reddenbacher

"We'll f**king smoke those f**kers out of their f**king caves!"

George W. Bush
