Don't put your life on hold.

EDIT:

I'm really trying to not allow myself to sit and write a long rant as usual. But I can't resist saying something.

Today, we had our radio show. My friend brought up the idea of No Bra November, to which a student manager stuck his head in and made the cut signal.

You can say bra on the radio.

You can disrespect women as much as you want in a vulgar way as long as you don't use cuss words.

My brotha, if you tell me I can't talk about an item of clothing in a non-sexual manner on the air, I'mma slap you next time for your hypocrisy. I'm no feminist (equality!) but I feel like this takes away from my rights, man.

But you know what? I'm not going to go around cussing on the radio, however, I do have an opinion of curse words as well.

WHO THE HELL DECIDED ANY WORD IS BAD?

I agree, descriptive words used in a bitter tone can be hurtful.

But seriously. Who the hell invented the idea that certain words should be banned?

I was raised a cradle Catholic by a well-mannered school teacher and I'm pretty polite to everyone I come in contact with. But I'm a fucking writer, and I love words. And swears, they inflict power and description. Screw socially acceptable. We all say it when we stub our toes. Even my 89 year old grandmother hissed "shit" when she realized she let all of the water burn out of the boiling potatoes. Yes, some people overuse them. But if we have the freedom of speech, we should be able to stop censoring ourselves. I can see why GD is offensive: you're "taking the name of the Lord in vain." But other than this, people need to let gravity slap their noses back down to the Earth.

Because unless I'm disrespectfully cussing you out and saying horrible things about you, I don't want to hear it. No, people should lower their voices in McDonald's. But quit covering your mouth when you read some "bad" word in a story. It's just text like any other word here.

Shit, man.
