1. That's difficult, because... |
|
... there are so many. Reducing the list down to its essence, though:
"Fuckemall" (always said as one word)
"Shit"
"Sonofabitch" (same as above)
What else could they be living in the uncivilized Bush Times? :P

8. Hi, KitchenWitch. Yes -- etched art on stone -- |
|
-- I heard Gordon Lightfoot talk about his scrimshaw collection in concert once and since then I pay odd attention to it.
This is a fun post. Thanks.

In alphabetical order:
AMERICA - Because I still believe in my country despite what the goddamned fucking Bush Junta continues to do to it.
FALAFEL - Because it sounds so damned funny. Of course, O'Reilly had to go and fuck this one up for me, the cocksucker.
MOTHERFUCKER - Way more expressive than just plain old "fuck."

14. Vomit, Fuck, and Feet |
|
The first because it is the best example of a word that sounds like what it denotes.
(Wince is another one)
The second because I am an American and that is THE American swear.
(If I were British, it would be bloody. If I were French, it would be merde)
The third because it is funny to use in almost any context with the exception of its proper context.
("I feel like feet" or "The movie was great except for all the feet" OK, hard to explain)
