Will this apply to telephone communications too?

I want to have my name come up on caller ID as F**K YOU!

And as nearly every word in a sentence:

F--k the f---ing f---ers.

Last words of General Custer: Where did all these f--king indians come from?!

IMO, the door is pretty open then for the F word to come on TV fairly often. And it is a bad decision on the part of the FCC. There's no sense of decency in the public square anymore, and, yes it does matter.

I agree. Look for the following excuses often: I just said [FILL IN THE BLANK] in a "fleeting and isolated" moment. It was used only as "an adjective or expletive to emphasize" my degradation...opps! I mean my point. Yeah, my point. The word I used [FILL IN BLANK] is real and everyone uses it. Well, Chancellor Palpatine does anyway!! Whaddya think this is Leave it to Beaver? Can't you take a joke? I suppose YOU'VE never said [FILL IN BLANK].

Bring back the bleep!!

The coarsening of our lives marches on.

I guess the cesspool of entertainment media thrives on the fact that stupid degnerates enjoy it.

Folks who use the F-word sound stupid. They may be otherwise intelligent enough, but once that word comes out they have about as much appeal as a disgorging dog.

Who Are You

Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?

I woke up in a Soho doorway
A policeman knew my name
He said "You can go sleep at home tonight
If you can get up and walk away"

I staggered back to the underground
And the breeze blew back my hair
I remember throwin' punches around
And preachin' from my chair

chorus:
Well, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
Tell me, who are you? (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)
'Cause I really wanna know (Who are you? Who, who, who, who?)

I took the tube back out of town
Back to the Rollin' Pin
I felt a little like a dying clown
With a streak of Rin Tin Tin

I stretched back and I hiccupped
And looked back on my busy day
Eleven hours in the Tin Pan
God, there's got to be another way

Who are you?
Ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa ...

Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?

(chorus)

I know there's a place you walked
Where love falls from the trees
My heart is like a broken cup
I only feel right on my knees

I spit out like a sewer hole
Yet still recieve your kiss
How can I measure up to anyone now
After such a love as this?

(chorus)

No F-bomb here, Dan...MUD

It's just a word, like any other. Maybe people will be forced to use better words once the English cognate of the
German "to strike" becomes lame with mainstream acceptance.

Un-eff'ing-believable! I still think the airwaves should be kept clean as a model for civility.

How many times did June say at breakfast, "Ward, you were pretty hard on the beaver last night"?

You owe me a keyboard! ;-)

It truely is the most versatile word in the English language. =D

It truly is the least versatile word in the English language -- it diminishes almost all who use it, and almost all statements in which it is used. It is the purest expression of hype -- "I HAVE NOTHING INTELLIGENT TO SAY, SO I'M GOING TO USE THE F-WORD!!!!!" Say it lewd, say it crude.

This doesn't suprise me... Does anyone here remember that episode of South Park where the same sort of thing happened, and there was a counter running in the corner of the screen, and it just kept climbing and climbing?

South Park may be rude, crude, and socially unacceptable, but dang! Sometimes those guys (Matt and Trey) hit the nail right on the head.

Kids already hear it at school and other places already.

Mainly school. That's where I learned it. It's one of the many benefits of socialization. We're homeschooling and don't enjoy this benefit. I'd like to keep things that way. I don't want my kids to hear this on TV. I don't want this dehumanizing language to be normalized.

Alas, tis too bad that our 1% idiotic pool of Freepers (i.e. "blackie") cannot see the facts you laid out. Being the sick, squalid creatures they are (probably Libertarians), they would rejoice at the mere thought of abortions or gladiator matches being performed on TV.

To hell with them and their slimy ilk.

Exactly....Take your kids to the range....bring the TV along....do what comes naturally.

This approach is insufficient since we are our brothers' keeper. It's our duty as members of society to protect all children, not just our own, where it is reasonable to do so.

Am I my brother's keeper?

Genesis 4

Now Cain said to his brother Abel, "Let's go out to the field." And while they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.
Then the LORD said to Cain, "Where is your brother Abel?" "I don't know," he replied. "Am I my brother's keeper?"
