Considering how easy most people in SF are to offend, this is a big step for the city.
Actually, that’s somewhat true James — I moved here from Chicago 4+ years ago, accustomed to the occassional finger and cuss word via poor drivers. The first time I did that, I had a local almost have a heartattack and spend the next few moments screaming out the window about how vile I was. Sorry lady, just cause you missed your turn off doesn’t give you two lanes to cut off at the last second, my bombardment was Chicago certified.
That festival is fucking stupid.
It had to be said 😛
‘Only in America…’
What the @#$%? Those @#$^ dolts think they can just @#$% a festival on whatever city they please? The @!$%s! When are them bloomin’ idiots gonna learn if they want a swearin’ festival, they gotta go to swearin’ country? They outta be holdin’ the Shi*dig in Hollywood, ’cause that’s where they make all them #@$^ repre-HENS-able movies with all them O-fensive curse words!
That sounds about as fun as a ward full of tourettes patients
Fuck Yea!
Sounds just like a regular episode of “Deadwood” on cable TV.
I kind of wish the festival was in New York, so I could go. We have the Jacob Javits conventions center, but its a little small so we miss out on a lot of things that could be featured here (E3? CES?).
Fuckin’ city…
We used to do an “old fashioned cursing” contest around the campfire.
One of the best I remember was: “Pony-tailed, b.o smellin’, tree huggin’, granola crunchin’ squirell humper”.
My apologies to all the “flower children” that may have some urge for besiality.
I’d go for that. Sure as there’s cold shit in a dead dog.
