The smilies to the left of the "new message" box are very useful and mean you don't have to remember the codes to enter them. Very useful.

 

However, I sometimes find it difficult to remember the "swear codes", e.g., b0llocks, tw4t, ar5e, p1ss, etc. Therefore, can I suggest that another such window to the right of the "new message" box would be of invaluable use.

 

Therefore, on your return, could you please sort this for me Craig as it would help massively. Thanks in advance. ;)

The Most Powerful English Word

 

Perhaps one of the most interesting and colourful words in the English language today is "****". It is the magical word which, just by its sound can describe pain, pleasure, hate, and love. "****" falls into many grammatical categories.It can be used as a verb - both transitive (Dave ****ed Anne) and intransitive (Dave then ****ed off home). It can be used as an active verb (Dave ****s Anne regularly) or as a passive verb (Anne is regularly ****ed by Dave). It makes a wonderful adjective (Anne is ****ing beautiful) and can even be a noun (Dave is a fine ****). So you see, there are not many words with the versatility of "****". Besides its sexual connotations, this lovely word can be used to describe many situations :

 

aggression : **** you.

apathy : Who gives a **** anyway?

denial : I didn't ****ing do it.

derision : He ****s everything up

despair : ****ed again.

difficulty : I don't understand this ****ing job.

rebellion : **** this for a game of soldiers.

resignation : Oh, **** it.

retaliation : Up your ****ing ass.

surprise : **** me.

suspicion : Who the **** are you?

It can be...useful in describing anatomy : He's a ****ing asshole.

a predication : Oh, will I get ****ed.
