Co., Inc., Everett, WA Lines: 54 Perhaps one of the most interesting words in the English language today is the word "fuck." It is the one magical word that, just by its sound, can describe pain, pleasure, hate, and love. Fuck, as most words in the English language takes its name from the german word "fricken" which means to "stick." In language, fuck falls into many grammatical categories. It can be used as a verb, both transitive (John fucked Mary) and intransitive (Mary was fucked by John), and as a noun (Mary is a fine fuck). It can be used as an adjective (Mary is fucking beautiful). As you can see, there are not many words with the versatility of fuck. Besides the sexual meaning, there are also the following uses: fraud .............. I got fucked at the used car lot. ignorance........... Fucked if I know. trouble ............ I guess I'm fucked now. aggression ......... Fuck you! displeasure ........ What the fuck is going on here? difficulty ......... I can't understand this fucking job. incompetence ....... He's a fuck off. suspicion .......... What the fuck are you doing? enjoyment .......... I had a fucking good time. request ............ Get the fuck out of here. hostility .......... I'm going to knock your fucking head off. greeting ........... How the fuck are you? apathy ............. Who gives a fuck? innovation ......... Get a bigger fuckin' hammer. surprise ........... Fuck! You scared the shit out of me! anxiety ............ Today is really fucked. I know you can think of may more uses, but with all these uses, how can any one be offended when you say fuck? You should use this unique word more often in your daily speech. It adds to your prestige. Say it loud and clear; fuck you! Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
