Listen Anthony, I got your head in a [lousy] vice
by Anonymous at 2:38 PM
Funny article in the Chicago Sun-Times today about the White Sox. Pay attention to the writer's use of newspaper-friendly words in brackets to account for Ozzie's curse words. It's like watching "Casino" on TBS.
One day I hope to see something like this:
"Man, this guy is a piece of [garbage]. This mother [lousy] is a [gosh-darn] joke. He should stay out of my [lousy] business or I'll [hurt] this [lousy] [gosh-darn] [garbage]."
They could simplify the entire thing by just using various forms of "suck".
Bart: Mom, my slingshot doesn't fit in these pockets. And these shorts leave nothing to the imagination. These uniforms suck!
Marge: Bart! Where do you pick up words like that?
Homer: [on phone] Yeah, Moe, that team sure did suck last night. They just plain sucked! I've seen teams suck before, but they were the suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked.
Marge: Homer! Watch your mouth!
Homer: Aw, I gotta go. My damn weiner kids are listening.
