Frakked Up

Tweet

"Frak!" "Frak you!" "This is frakked up!" On the TV show "Battlestar Galactica," the writers use "frak" in place of real profane words. I believe they do this to get around censorship issues (with the FCC?), much like on myLot where we need to obfuscate profanity in our posts. To me, words are just words to get an idea or point across whether it's made-up or the real thing. We should be able to use whatever word we need without having to go make up new words--especially when we already have some that work and express what we're feeling. What are your thoughts on this?
