    To me, rap is for people who never learned how to sing. Especially when every other word is a profanity.

    At the college football game they blare rap before the game.
    With the F word and MF word is blared as well... ==sigh==

    profanity is "the attempt of a feeble mind to express itself forcibly".

    Totally agree.
    And now that language is being used with abandon.

    Joe,

    To me, rap is for people who never learned how to sing. Especially when
    ever
    y other word is a profanity.

    At the college football game they blare rap before the game.
    With the F word and MF word is blared as well... ==sigh==

    A friend of mine said "once you and your wife have had a baby (it is a cooperative effort), that makes you a MF". I guess he's got them on a technicality.

    That's like the cartoon, where this restaurant has a sign that says
    "No Shoes. No Shirt. No Service".

    So, this guy walks in with a shirt on, and shoes on, but he's naked
    below the waist!! The maitre'd laments "Well, it looks like you've got
    us on a technicality". <G>

    profanity is "the attempt of a feeble mind to express itself forcibly".

    Totally agree.
    And now that language is being used with abandon.

    And, I thought "dam" was to hold back water. :P
