We might as well make a bad word chart.


"Mrs. Smith, have you ever seen the Austin Powers?"

Me: "Yes, I have."

Jack: " My favorite character if Fat Bastard!"

Me: "You shouldn't say that word at school."

Jack " You mean FAT?"

Me: "No, the other one. Bastard."

Wide Eyed Jack: "I didn't even know that was a bad word! Huh. My dad calls my dog that all the time."



Me: "Well, how about you just don't say it in school anymore, okay? Okay. "




Just another day in heaven.

    My boys loved that movie. They watched it over and over when they were younger. Now I know why.

    First day riding the bus, my youngest came home and told me he'd learned the S-word and the B-word. After I got over my near coronary, he shared with me those bad words: "stupid," and "butt head." Oh, for those simpler days. LOL

    My oldest daughter came home from her first day of kindergarten bursting with her learning! "Do you know we have a bad finger??" Great. Just what I sent her to school to learn.

    Loved this!

    Reminds me of that scene in that movie, Nat'l Lampoon's Christmas Vacation where Clark's niece says "Shitting bricks." When he tells her she shouldn't say that word. She says, "Sorry. Shitting rocks."

    Lol. ;o)

    Could have been worse; He might have said that his favorite character is "Pussy Galore" and that his dad talks about that at home a lot too.

    That's so funny! My son the other day asked me where you find "damn ants"..... on Indiana Jones some "big damn ants" swarmed all over them and he was wondering if we had any ants like that around here. Lol, I had to explain that they were just damn ants and that Indy was just mad at them, that's why they were "damn" ants.

    Yeah, thats how I had to explain words like crap, damn, and sh*! to my K-1 class. Their parents used it all the time, so they didn't know there was anything wrong with it. They got a grace period, but after that it was dots once I knew they knew they weren't allowed to use those words in school.

    Hope you're enjoying some time off from school.

    Your blog is simply wonderful. It has made me appreciate my teachers of past even more so than I already do. Bless you!

    I worked all day with my "public" and you have to know, grown ups suck, big time! I much rather here "fat bastards" out of the mouth of babes, it makes me smile! Believe me, little kids are much more rewarding to work with than their parents!

    I recently took a bunch of online quizzes on various topics -- geography, history, literature -- and it turns out my twin fields of expertise are Broadway Musicals and Profanity.

    So I was thinking about running a contest for Dirty Showtunes.

    Can I count on you? (Because it seems like something that might be right up your aisle.)

    Bastard, shit, fuck, and damn all have secret code words to be used in public in our family. Stabbard (not very original, but it works). 162 (the number of times the word shit was said on the infamous "Shit" episode of South Park). Duckpluckage (stupid, but effective). And damn. Oh, damn. I just realized that one's not encoded. Oh well, duckpluckage it.

    Bastard is my most favorite swear word.

    My maiden name is Powers and I have a cousin whose son is name Austin. They're the most straight-laced, Mormon family you'd ever meet.

    Pretty much the opposite of the fictional Austin Powers. Which is also in my top 5 fave movies ever.
