Was I being unreasonable to laugh at dh for this?

[SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius]

In the car, earlier on, ds1 (18) was describing a crash he had on his bike, at a skate park, when he broke his wrist - and was telling us how many times the word 'fuck' had gone through his mind before he hit the floor. Dh became a tad po-faced about the use of the word, so I may have used it a few times ("Boys - don't say fuck, because dad doesn't like you using the word fuck and thinks it is fucking rude for you to keep on fucking saying the word fuck").

Dh started to tell us, in somewhat pompous tones, how, when he was a lad, out and about in the car with his parents, he wouldn't have dreamt of using That Word in front of them - and suddenly a car nearly pulled out in front of us on the roundabout, almost hitting us, and forcing dh to swerve. Dh shouted, "FUCKWIT", - and the rest of us fell about in helpless fits of laughter at the irony. It took him a while to see the funny side.

Kayano - I'm glad you gave that heads up - I wouldn't want to upset someone by using a disablist word. >

oooh wine and Maltesers ,I like this terrible mother camp

if i run and tell my dc to shout fuck can i have a malteser?

Have a malteser without the running, cheesesarnie - unneccessary exercise is bad for you, you know!

YABVU for making me laugh outloud and causing my 6 year old to ask what was so funny

luckily, I have managed to fob her off

Fuck Fantastic!

YANBU and you are NOT a terrible mother!

Yanbu I would have!

I don't use the word 'fuckwit' in a way that refers to any specific group of people, disabled or otherwise and I bloody well object to the insinuation that it is in any way disablist or any other ist. Fuck that for a game of soldiers (oh shit - is that soldierist??!).

Word Police- polite request - quit with laying stuff on words to suit your agendas please - we've lost quite enough to your cause as it is.

Can I use 'Fuckface'?

Might be offensive to anyone with a face like a fuck?

Feckwit - best word ever invented!

Amen bats.

If you go looking to be offended, you'll be offended. And mental. Which, yes, is apparently offensive to the people with MH issues. Except I have MH issues and have no issue with people using the word mental to describe something that is, indeed, mental.

I also have no objection to the word loony. Just for the record.

I love how this has so quickly gone from a fluffy funny thread to an -ist thread.

Never used to be like this.....

Hey Tee - I've had issues too - and what got me through was my best friends telling me I was - errr - mental! God love 'em - that is precisely what you need when it all goes tits up - humour and people who love you enough not to let you sink by creeping around being all non-ist and PC!

Actually - a couple of them do still call me mental!

Fucking brilliant :o

My kids hear the odd sweary one from me, usually when under duress or when provoked by the satanic cats. They roll their eyes and accept my profise apology and assertation that mummy is getting better at using fluff and chuff

dont you worry evilwolef my love, as long as i dont swear in front of dd infront of my mum im safe .. she hates people swearing infront of kids even tho she swore infront of me all my life btw well done to your ds on his highers grade - just noticed in the lair :) bloody clever boy you've got!

Bats my friends collectively refer to all of our MH meds as MAD MEDS! (always all caps, with a rubbing together of hands and evil cackle at the end. )

- I think that's the only way!

Missed the entire gist of my post.

I'm saying fuckwit isn't disablist (and not particularly offensive unless you find the word fuck offensive, which I don't).

Somebody saying "you'll probably be called disablist" seemed to be taking the piss out of the SN parent's stating that the word fuck-with-the-first-four-letters-of-Dr-Who's-blue-box is offensive.

Apologies if that poster wasn't taking the piss, it looked like it.

But yeah, fuckwit is one of my favourite phrases, along with knobcheese (they're readily interchangeable I find) and the OP was hilarious!

STGD Hilarious

YANBU!

I will most likely lose custody of my ds(7) for admitting this, but I have actually taught him to swear with a really nice rolling accent. I loathe hypocrisy, I swear, dh swears, not often but sometimes only the curse will do and what's sauce for the goose and all that. Why the fuck shouldn't he swear and know when it's appropriate and not?
