First off apologies for not posting in a while. Secondly i'm ditching the jokes thing and replacing it with something else. Thirdly i'm gonna start doing these weekly instead of daily or whenever i can be bothered. and finally the jokes are being replaced with a song of the week which i invite you all to check out at the bottom Todays entry is on people who swear because they think its cool.
Entry 5
This subject is something that, due to my being in a high school, occurs regularly. Swearing for the sake of it. There really is no need for it yet still people do it. To be fair i do swear myself, but only when it seems necessary in order to put an appropriate emphasis on something, To paraphrase Scottish comedian Billy Connolly the phrase go away just isn't as powerful as fuck off. well it wasn't until these prepubescent asinine morons came along and destroyed all effect a swear or cuss word had. One of the worst things is that they still have high pitched voices...all of them...even the guys...and swear words just don't sound right in a high pitch. its my opinion that no more than two swear words ( three if you're angry) should be used in any one sentence. They also shouldn't come one right after the other. People are usually brought up not to swear...or at least their parents think that's what they're doing. If a child swears usually they will be given into trouble but only through a chorus of positive reinforcement namely laughter. Its only human to laugh at a toddler calling somebody a fanny. But it's an adults job to supress that laughter until at least the child is gone otherwise the child will believe it hasn't actually done anything that bad and they are encouraged to increase the number of times they swear.
Well thats it on this subject the song of the week this week is 'You Can Call Me Al' by Paul simon
