The Word

There're a very limited few words in the english vocabulary that can describe as much as the word fuck. I think there was an article written on this before so i hope i'm not plagiarizing.

Yesterday i was at the bar with a few friends watching the ManU-Birmingham game. One of them commented that Arse had beaten Everton 6-1 the night before. Not Arse fans, we naturally went "yea...we heard that score...oh fuck..." More like in resignation...

Subsequently after the game started, Birmingham nearly scored in the early stages and the non-manure fans around us went "OH FUCK!! How did that stay out???" It was in disbelief.

Then a minute later, manure nearly scored and we went "Oh fuck! That was a bit of luck!" This was in relief.

But then, the inevitable happened...manure scored..."OH FUCK!! I can't believe that went in like that!!" This time in anguish.

Then towards the end of the game, Birmingham nearly scored again so..."OH FUCK!! The keeper actually got a glove to that!!" In amazement.

This morning...I found out that Liverpool lost. "OH FUCK!! THEY LOST?!??" Bewilderment.

Then i read Rafa's comments that there should have been a penalty at the end. "Oh fuck...there he goes again with his excuses." Indignation.

And i do believe that this word is understood all over the world.

In Thailand while shopping "HOW MUCH?!? ARE YOU FUCKING CHEATING ME???"

In Egypt while on the streets "Stop harrassing me!! Fuck off!"

In Vietnam while learning how to cross the road from the locals "Whoa?? i have to do that?? Oh fuck..."

In England in a pub "Another pint?? Fuck yea!! Bring it on."

In America "Singapore is not in China you dumb fuck!"

In Iraq "Fuuuuuuuuck...incoming!!!!"

In Japan while enjoying sashimi "Aaaah fuck...this is nice." (also can be used in Thailand....)

So if ever you need to teach english to a foreign friend, this would be The Word to teach first. No single word can express itself so eloquently in so many forms.

Here's wishing you two a fucking great day. Hope none of those fuckers come bothering you today but if they do, i hope you fuck them up real good.
