I remember a time in movies and television when you could barely get away with saying “hell” or “damn”. Nowadays on television you can say words up to and as bad as “shit”. It really makes no difference to me. We are the United States (yes) and we have freedom of speech (yes), and England really doesn’t have anything like we do with the FCC. To me, there is no real difference between saying “I have to take a dump”, “I have to take a crap”, “I have to take a poop”, “I have to take a shit”, “I have to send the Browns to the Superbowl”, etc. etc. Sure, some things are more acceptable in certain company. You wouldn’t walk out of the room during a job interview and say, “I have to take a massive shit!” Proper etiquette is to excuse yourself and maybe not even explain why.
Really I just think that this whole thing is funny because of the way that time has changed things. We really are going to end up like the movie Idiocracy, aren’t we? In twenty to fifty years, we’re all going to sound like a Kevin Smith movie.
