Language One of the great regrets in my life sprang from a meal time in my house of hell horror during my second year at University. For those who don't know, I was living with three shockingly middle class girls who thought Museli was sophisticated. Anyway they wear talking about something and one of them happened to mention that some guy they knew had used the 'c-word'. One of the others remarked that there was just no need to use the 'c-word'. Now what I should have done was turn around and say 'What? C**t?' But I didn't. Now Metatalk brings some catharsis for me with a free and frank discussion of the word and its uses ... although to be honest I'm not a very good swearer. My mouth is used to using words with more than one syllable ... so bastard works just OK ...
