What’s your poison?
Coffee? Cigarettes? Booze? Romantic novels? Italian men ?

Growing up we are taught about the evils of the world. Well, little southern baptist boys and girls are. Don’t swear, Don’t be a slut, Don’t drink, Don’t look like a slut, Go to church, Don’t date a slut. The list goes on.
But how bad are these things?
What is bad? What is good?
The king fu master turtle in Kung Fu Panda says there is no good or bad news only news. On the tenth time of me watching this wonderful film, I began to ponder what is that old turtle saying?
Of course there is bad and good in this world.
But are all of the things we are worrying about, truly the end of the world we imagine them to be?
If I have my health, and my family, is it the end of the world if I say the word fuck?
nevercontrary 
What about going to church like a slut? What does the old turtle have to say about that?
Wait? You must have gone to my church.
I mean this with all due respect, but if I could find a church full of sluts and a talking turtle, I would go every day…
Ha Ha I think we all would.
And if the turtle could teach the sluts how to do kug fu, well then…
Can’t beat having health and family!
Yes indeed. How are you feeling?
Oy! I feel like such an old man/complainer. They can’t seem to get my blood thin enough, so still trying to recover.
Hey, someone has to be the one to set the bad example. They are usually the one with the big grin.
I really wish I could set a bad example more often.
Wait..saying “fuck” is bad.. Oh well, guess I’m bad.. Oh no, and I also used it in a few poems.. Now I’m horrid
🙂
Not in my world where it’s used daily…I like being the bad example.
I think that the ones not saying fuck are the ones we should really be worried about.
well i think i can myself a nice girl…i have never done things i shouldn’t have done…in many words i m decent not homely but decent…yet i say the F word…does that rubs off my clean record ? i wonder
Totally ruins your record, now go have fun! (ps it doesn’t really ruin your record)
“Good” and “bad”, “wrong” and “right”, all those are only subjective. Example:
My mum says swearing is bad.
I say swearing is good. Good for the soul.
(I know, a pretty bad example, but, hey, that’s subjective.)
So true.
Great post! You make a very compelling argument and I would love everything smothered in chocolate!
Mmmm… Chocolate.
I used to have an Italian men addiction. It’s only bad if you do something you don’t want to do, hehe.
Oh la la.
One word. No.
Some other words. At least I hope not!! 🙂
ha ha 🙂
I certainly hope not because I’ve doomed us all today! My email got hacked and it completely messed with my Blackberry email service. I hardly ever read from the computer!!! So I said it about 50 times in various forms. So, if the world ends, you can blame it one me! Sincerely sorry, Sandy (LOL)
I think we are safe. For now. lol.
What? Are you suggesting that saying the word “fuck” is bad? When did that happen? I didn’t get the memo…
In an evangelical community almost everything is bad. Even now that I am long out of it, it is hard to brush off all that training.
Ah, yes. Evangelical. Of course. Perhaps it’s good I was never in that Club. The pastor would have made me go sit outside…a lot.
I was once grounded for two weeks because the tone with which I spoke to the pastor was inappropriate. lol
I found your post comments while searching Google. It is very relevant information. Great work. Regularly I do not make posts on blogs, but I have to say that this posting really forced me to do so. Really awesome post. Really fantastic and I will be coming back for more information at your site and revisit it! Finer Things .
