The Perfect t-shirt, redux



I've actually gotten a few comments about my affection for this t-shirt. Uncle Rico said I was a sad little monkey for thinking this material object would complete my life. I don't think I said that exactly - I just said that my life would remain incomplete if I never owned it -- but, then there are lots of conditions that would lead me to believe that my life would be incomplete if I didn't achieve.

The Chick wondered if it would be appropriate wear for her child/easter bunny's preschool? Then, rethinking it decided it might be exactly the sort of thing to shake them up.

So, this leaves me wondering - why is the "f-word" so socially inappropriate? What made it the "mother" of all bad words? Surely there are more horrible words or phrases out there.
