HAHAHAHA!!! This is just wonderful! I saw myself in this, from the forbidden use in my mother's home right through to the horrid abuse of it - they stole our power!!! Marvelous writing. This simply HAS to win this prompt! Here - it's only Sunday, but have my last six, naughty girl!!! It's just too exceptional to not rate as it deserves.

Ha ha ha. Great concept for this prompt, Dallas. The fuck fairy, LOL. Yep, it sure was a lot different back a few years ago when you rarely heard it muttered, let alone how now it's every other word out of a teen's mouth. I hope you do well in the booth. You get my vote. Great write.

;)

I'm dying of laughter at the fuck fairy line :-)
great humor in your clever delivery of this musing on the forbidden word now turned stale and passe
potent four letter gem, it had lost - add comma
I haven't read all the entries yet, but this one has to be a fucking strong contender ;-) Brooke

Hi, Dallas01! You did a fantastic job with this one. I absolutely love your analogies. Sometimes I think it's all about who says it. You wouldn't think to turn around if you hear a "fuck," unless, of course, it came from the mouth of a priest, a nun, etc. Good luck in the contest and Happy New Year! Mickey

It does not matter why the fuck you jumped on this prompt, I'm just fuckin' glad you did. Fuck was the forbidden f-bomb. Hell, I ate soap for saying shit at 6. My mom's favorite swear word- pickle. Huh? Yes, she says pickle instead of swearing. All I know is that when my front crown fell out and I was driving, unable to properly address idiot drivers with my favorite word, I was lost. Ssthuck just does not cut it.

WV anthracite-didn't get the meaning...
You certainly expressed most of the word's multiple meanings; I am sorry you've never got to use it as you first desired.
Good luck in the contest!

    Thanks for reviewing. Wv, my home state is known for its coal industry.

    Ah, the state! I was thinking of Volkswagen, which is close-VW...

Terrific work with this one. I began using the F work with I was quite young. I need a word that would cause people to shut up and listen to what I had to say. It worked to shut people up, but after Fuck, who cares what you have to say...it becomes just another let down. I enjoyed this very much and wish you all the best in this unusual, but interesting contest.

    This was just a fun write. But the word no longer has any shock value. Thanks for reviewing.

An entertaining response to this strange prompt! As you say, a word that has lost all meaning and all potency, its only originality still being when it is used properly to describe that rather ungainly act of bouncing about behind drawn curtains.
