Another "free zone" that doesn't work and only promotes the opposite.

Frank Girardot: South Pas school trying for a week without cussing You know that word?
Sometimes it's a noun. Other times, it's an adjective. It's also definitely a verb.
Don't use it in South Pasadena this week.
Or any word remotely close. That's because the city has declared it's "Cuss Free Week."
The idea comes from 14-year-old McKay Hatch, who started a No Cussing Club at South Pasadena Middle School this past June, according to his father, Brent.
South Pas isn't the only place adopting McKay's program. He has a Web site, nocussing.com and branches of the club in all 50 states.
McKay's Web site explains the origins of his club.
"A lot of kids at my school, and some of my friends, would cuss and use dirty language all the time. They did it so much, they didn't even realize they were doing it. It bothered me so much that one day I challenged them to stop," Hatch wrote. "But some of the kids said they didn't know how to stop. That's when I started the No Cussing Club."
It wasn't easy at first. Kids at the middle school would say some pretty foul things to McKay, his dad recalled.
And, as for starting the club, Brent was sort of against it at first.

Everyone has their own definition of a swear word. This is just another suck-up move to the PC Soccer Moms.

There is a Thai restaurant in Huntington Beach named "Phuket Thai"... underneath the name the sign says, "Pronounced Poo-Ket... don't ask us why!"
I about busted my gut when I saw it. :biggrin:

WADR, the sound of children (boys and girls alike) using longshoreman language is repugnant. Why ridicule the kid for trying to get a few of his peers to stop spouting the F-world like punctuation?

Reminds me of a license plate application that was granted in CA: PHA QUE. Didn't last long but I'll bet the voided plate ended up on E-Bay.

Never mind the school environment. It should be cursing free, but the schools are overloaded with candy asses running it, and the Neanderthals posing as students have the final say, whether they receive in school suspension, bad marks, whatever. Going to the outside adult world, I know of some clowns in the Military (Navy) who tried to ban cursing within earshot of another person. Give me a farking break! I can see it now. The Armed Forces turned into the Pussy-Whipped Forces, with the New Politically Correct Soccer Mom Marines ready to engage the sand monkeys.
Sand Monkey to any P-C Jarhead: "Hey, faggot! I hear your momma sells it on the streets while you're here!"
PC Marine: "You cannot speak about my mother in that tone, you bad guy you! I'll show you!", as he jumps out of his place to fight with bare knuckles to restore his mother's purity.
Sand Monkey with sniper rifle: BANG!

Cuss free zone? What a stupid idea, If parents don't want their kids to cuss then thats fine but having a cuss free zone is NOT the way to go about it.

Here's a charmingly named town in Austria: F**king, Austria (http://tinyurl.com/63byd)
And here's the town sign that has been replaced many times because the furriners steal it.

Like manna from heaven. Thank you for your customary astute observations.

cuss- free military - f*** no

If I recall correctly, you are a mite young to be cursing on an adult board, even in censor mode, and I think that is what started the warnings on that other thread.<!-- / message --><!-- sig -->
