And people much wiser have said “I’d rather have my son watch a film with two people making love, than two people trying to kill one another.” And I, of course, can agree, it’s a great sentiment, I wish I knew who said it first, and I agree with that. But I’d like to take it a step further. I’d like to substitute the word fuck for the word kill in all those movie clichés we grew up with, right? “Okay, Sheriff, we’re gonna fuck ya now, but we’re gonna fuck ya slow.” So maybe next year I’ll have a whole fucking rap on that word. I hope so.
