I'm so dim... I only realized why the middle finger means "FU" a few months ago when I saw a film depicting a man making the gesture at a woman... his hand was at waist height. So, yeah, he was basically "signing" that he wanted to "give her the finger"... I suppose I probably could have found that information on wikipedia if I had been interested..?

f*** will never cease to be profane. $#!+ is gaining enough popularity on television (even "family" television) that it may even stop being auto-corrected here at EYESON... eventually. C is harsh. Why is it that people commonly say MF but nobody says PF? Or DF? Or FF? Why SF or BF? I may understand the last three could be mistaken for Final Fantasy, San Fran, and Best Friend...

In a few years, profanity will be seen as an overrated form of self-expression and adolescent rebellion which has little or nothing to do with the freedom of speech. I've never approved of people like Jay (of Jay and Silent Bob) who use f*** for every other word in their speech pattern, not because their language is disgusting but because they're simply substituting "um" with "f***" so you have no choice but to acknowledge that this person speaking is an idiot beyond repair.

... ... What was I saying?
