that are identical to their Gaelic counterparts. "Gobshite" was about the kindest.

They invariably tell him to fuck off. However, I do wonder if now people in the U.S. that are of Scottish descent will now be a target for one of his proposed mass deportations.

...term "colorful language."


In 2005, we spent 10 days in and around Edinburgh, on a soccer trip with our sons. The kids on the trip ranged from 11-15. They were all quite impressed with the frequency of "the F word" in everyday conversation. On one 30 minute bus ride, we started counting, and were up to 150 utterances by the time we reached our destination.

It was pronounced "fook" (as in 'spook') and somehow didn't seem quite so potent with the different pronunciation.

Trump is a fooking eejit, no doubt about it.

Maybe Mangled Apricot Hellbeast, Incompressible Jizztrumpet and Ferret Wearing Shitgibbon can join together for a concert to benefit the Hillary for President campaign.

to screen capture, then upload, then copy the address. I know, I'm lazy, I was just hoping there was an easier way.

but on Firefox I use the Pearl Crescent pagesaver extension. It lets you save an entire web page as an image, not just the portion currently displayed on the screen.

I went to @realDonaldTrump and all I see are tweets by him.

I have several people who don't do much online - hanging on every "spoon" and "fucknugget"!
