What is their f*&king problem. It is custom to use the f word in England and it is used routinely. They need to grow the hell up!
BY A VOTE of 183-50, town meeting members in Middleborough, Mass., last week approved a bylaw making public cursing a civil offense and authorizing police to enforce the ban by fining offenders $20.
Town Hall may find it hard to collect on those fines. Assuming Cohen v. California is still good law, the First Amendment's protection of free speech extends to using four-letter words in public, and as soon as the new ordinance is challenged it will almost certainly be struck down. Legally, town authorities don't have a leg to stand on. But their concern with enforcing public standards...
I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt that you're trying to be sarcastic.
The Brits have been F'd up since 1776, and have gone steadily downhill ever since. I don't think it has anything to do word usage. Just the lack of brain usage.
That said, I find the internet joke showing a gasoline marquee advertising prices ranging from 'LOL' to 'WTF' absolutely hilarious. Truer words were never spoken!
