My state has recently unveiled a halfway decent slogan to tame the raging anti-maskers: It's for Now, not Forever.

RandomFerret posted:If The Count is any kind of undead, I'd argue it's far more likely that he is a jiangshi, or Chinese vampire Western vampires are also obsessed with counting things. One of the ways to ward them off is to drop poppy seeds, grain, millet or sand at their grave. When the alleged vampire emerged from their grave at night, they would spend all night counting it and either die to the sun or have to go back at dawn. Jiangshi had the same issue but with bags of rice by entryways.

Riatsala posted:My 6th grade art teacher used that as some kind of gotcha. Every time someone said "that sucks" she'd start yelling "SUCKS WHAT EXACTLY???" I went to a Catholic high school and sophomore year we had to take a class on morality (ostensibly, "Religion II"). The teacher was a 20-something woman in a class full of 15/16 year old boys. Keep that in mind. There came a unit about sexual morality (). Before any of us knew this, she began the first lesson of the unit by writing "SEX," by itself, in the center of the blackboard. Then she asked us for synonyms for sex. A couple kids ventured some tame poo poo like "intercourse" and "make love." She kept asking and finally put "gently caress" on the board herself. She explained that so many words for sex have violent connotations or linguistic origins (she erroneously singled out "gently caress" for this). So then she asked again for synonyms. Then the class let loose with increasingly nonsensical answers meant to confuse her: Bang Slam Donkey Punch Slam Pig Dirt McGurt Dirty Sanchez Clean Jean Chicken Noodle Flowbee Don't Wake Daddy Fnord And so on. She wrote every loving one on the board. It was glorious.

I can see people getting pissed about "sucks" in the future and calling it sexist The problem with it in the 90s definitely wasn't that it was sexist though, just that sex was gross and Beavis and Butthead said it

One good Family Guy segment was an intro where Peter was watching Sesame Street with the count and asked if they ever depicted him sucking blood. That always just stuck with me.

If we didn't, people would be more touchy about words like "idiot," "scumbag," and even "naughty." There was a time that "gently caress" had the same impact as the c-word in the US and now you are allowed one in PG movies. So in 100 years maybe little children will be adorably calling each other motherfuckin' shitbags.

I thought sucks might have come from telling people to "go suck eggs" Which probably has dirty origins anyway

On the other hand if you don't give context, you get kids genuinely shocked 'gay' means homosexuality and not just 'something bad'

hawowanlawow posted:it was all the rage at my elementary school to say "funkin" instead of "fuckin," but my parents saw right through that poo poo For about three months in middle school, it was the rage for the boys to yell SHUT UP BITCH, but with the bitch part as high-pitched as possible to confuse the teachers. I don't know if they never caught on or let it go. The former is a distinct possibility. I also recall that in fifth grade, someone had to read a line in a story that contained the word "sexist." We'd never seen the word before and the poor kid stumbled over it, embarrassed as he pronounced it sexiest because we were repressed kids in a rural area. Sex is a bad, dirty word. Thankfully the teacher did correct the pronunciation and told us what it meant.

I remember my year 12 literature teacher telling us that when she was in university in the 60s, saying that something was "completely stuffed" was basically the same as using c-word is right now in the USA.

I got in trouble as a wee lad for telling my older brother to go suck an egg. I learned it from GI Joe. Apparently it's a snake thing. I also got in trouble for saying god dang, because somehow that would mean god was paying attention and would dang it? I guess? Growing up in the south was weird sometimes.
