Granted I haven't had to buy a new dictionary for a few years but with this addition, aren't they leaving a few other choice words out or have those already been added?

LOL, this reminds me of a so-so movie, My Fellow Americans with James Garner and Jack Lemon as two feuding ex-Presidents. Lauren Bacall plays Lemon's wife and she says this line to her husband, "Don't say "freaking", Russ. If you have to use the "F" word, go for the gold."

We love that movie. And it's funny because my mother is kind of the same way, she says if you're going to say fricking you might as well say the real word, but she never wants to hear the real one either.

I've never understood buzz words being added. I think in recent years words such as "bootie" have been added.

Lot more than that, Red, and that's why I'll stick with my copy from 1996, all the relevant words are still in there.

honestly.. i dont have a problem with any word being in the dictionary. I think that slang/profanity only has the power you give it. if people get over it, and are not offended by it, then its no longer offensive

co-signs

I loathe fucking codewords or what I call words that dare not speak their name. It is a silly game of prudes to use letters to euphemise words rather than go ahead and write out the fucking offensive word, clearly saying what you mean.

BTW, is F-word for Fuck or Faggot? If N-word is a euphemism for Nigger, then F-word might be for Faggot. So there is confusion when a person or newpaper editor is too fucking timid to write what the fuck he means to say.

Is there a word for 'F Blanket Bombing? blank stare @ you
