#4 There is no better language for profanity; it's too bad.

They've got their priorities mixed up, though. Cheating is the norm in schools there, not the exception, as are fooling government, manipulating the system, blackmail and black markets. Guess they're starting with the littlest problems first?

#6 But I thought the Russian language consisted entirely of curse words. As for TGA, better not let your Mom hear you talkin' like that!.

Dunno if y'all are committing moderatable offenses, or not.

Carry on.

#17 The Army sent one of my brothers through Russian Language School at Monterey. He said that the last class before graduation was a six week study of Russian profanity so that the linguists would recognize what they were hearing in the intercepts. He said that the Russians had some of the most creative, depraved and mentally challenging epithets imaginable. His favorite expression, often applied to high ranking officers, translated loosely to: "He farts wider than his a**h***"
