Around SBN: Events Cause Mariners To Lose To Rangers

Gaslamp Ball joins the No Cussing Club

So I was just reading this story on CNN about this kid that started a No Cussing Club at school.

His dad told him it was probably better if he didn't because he knew the kid would be bullied.  The kid went ahead and created the club at his school anyway and it soon became a website with members from all 50 states and 30 countries.  His dad, however, was right...

Nicole Lapin: Well, you received not only death threats we should say, McKay. Your site was hacked into, prostitutes were sent to your house. Were you ever scared by any of those threats?

Hatch: At first I was actually pretty scared because they said, 'I know where you live.' Our address was posted online on a really big Web site and at first I was scared. But like I said, these are bullies and they wanted me to be scared and I wasn't going to let them win.

I feel like this is a no lose situation for us, if we can stop cussing we'll all be better people, if not maybe somebody will send prostitutes to our houses.

Not to wax philosophical

but are we just talking about the big 4 words? Becuase “cussing” or “profanity” is fairly subjective based on region, age, religion etc… I think if youre really trying to make this work, people need to know exactly the words that cannot be said.

Just to put things in perspective, I believe I heard both the A word and the S word on ABC Family’s: Life of an American Teenager when i was looking after my niece the other night.

I think this is dumb but whatever ill play along.
