Letter from a fucking wanker

Letter from a fucking wanker.

Dear Sir,

Perhaps one of the most interesting; words in the English language today is the word 'Fuck.' It is the magical word, which just by its sound can describe pain, pleasure, hate and love. 'Fuck' takes its name from the German word 'Friken' which means 'O Strike.'

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.)

As an adverb (mary is fucking well interested in John.)

And as a noun (Mary is a fine fuck.)

Also an adjective (Mary is fucking beautiful.) As you can see, there are not many words with the same versatility as the word 'Fuck.'

Besides the sexual meaning, there are also the following:

Fraud—I got fucked at the used car lot.

Ignorance—Fucked if I know.

Trouble—I guess Pm fucked now.

Agression—Fuck you.

Difficulty—I can't understand this fucking mess.

Displeasure—What the fuck is going on here?

Suspicion—What the fuck are you doing?

Enjoyment—This is fucking great.

Request—Get the fuck out of here!

Hostility—I'm going to knock your fucking head off.

Surprise—Well I'll be fucked!

Exasperation For fuck's sake!

Incompetence—What a fuck up!

I know you can think of many more uses, but with all these how can anyone be offended when you say 'Fuck?' We can use this unique word more often in our daily speech.

It adds to your prestige Say it loud and clear 'Fuck You!'
