To be mortified I just shouted 'fuck off you cunt' at my boss.

[itchybumhole]

Bad day, terrible even. Was in a foul mood walking home from work. Crossing road at a T junction with my head down and a car beeped at me as it turned in to the minor road.
Assuming it was an impatient driver who honked at me to get out of the way, I looked up and shouted at the top of my voice 'FUCK OFF YOU CUNT!'
As the last word left my mouth I realised it was my boss and he was pipping his horn and waving to say hello. His window was down so I've no doubt he heard what I said.
We both looked at each other in horror as he drove off.
Shit, shit, shit.
It'll be ok, right?

Have most people completely missed what exactly the bad news the op had just received was??????

If it was me that would have been the least of my reaction and would have probably hurled my bag at them too!

Glad it’s worked out for you and probably not the introduction you wanted to your boss or for them to find out your situation but glad it’s a weight off your mind.

There’s a 5Live podcast called “you, me and the big c”. It might not be for you but have a read up on it and maybe a listen and you might find it helpful or you might not, I personally think it’s a great podcast but know it won’t be for everyone.

Ps - the c word isn’t cunt in the podcast!! Just read it over and realised I was maybe recommending a sweary podcast to you but I’m sure there are many out there!

I think I love you!!!! Haha this is brilliant.

Hi OP, looks like a promotion is coming, so that's good news. The management clearly values you and wants you to stay, so it ended well.

i am at a loss to know what you have read into that....but clearly another opportunity to have a pop. you will turn anything into an opportunity to have a go it seems. oh well [sigh]

Just send him a message telling him you had a shit day and thought it was someone impatient tooting you!
Let’s face it - if we’re honest - we’ve all had a bit of road rage!

But no one is having a pop.
I said the word 'cunt' in public and you adopted the role of a 19th century school maarm and told me off. Over and over again.
And then a bit more.

You said that I can't change anyone's mind by arguing (tell that to a jury) but you continue to berate me and argue the toss over something that is totally irrelevant.
I wasn't seeking your permission to call anyone a cunt. I don't need your permission.

It's just a word! A word for a fanny, a minge, a cooter, a fanjo. Whatever you want to call it. It's your choice, you see. And I'm cool with that. You don't have to be offended. It's not like those horrid little dolls that Robinson's jam used to give out. They ARE offensive because of the negative associations to a minority group.
Roughly half of the entire population of the planet have a cunt. It shouldn't be the worst swear word in the world.

And if you find it so offensive to begin with, then tell me why the fuck you're on mumsnet? And why you reply to other posts where the word is bandied around freely without getting your knickers in a twist.

Chill the fuck out.

OP - just for the record. Cunt is my favourite word.
I’ve gotten all through my life with a successful job, many friends and family and generally well respected.

I just have this dirty little secret that my favourite word in the whole world is.....CUNT! I just love how passionate is. And....IDGAF what the snobby little so and so’s think about it!

Thanks Relliboo. It's hard to fathom why a few people still lose their minds when they hear a naughty word for a vagina. Maybe it's a generational thing. Fuck knows.
Either way, it's not worth worrying about. Mostly they're a good nest of cunts here on mumsnet. x

Rellyboo, even!

No, you have called pps this. I am not having a go at you, you need to look back at my posts.

it happens, and when you posted what the issue was.. well, read my posts, I really don't get why you are being so hostile and then blaming me for being prissy, calling me a cunt, blaming people who don't like it as being pearl clutchers, and expecting me to be happy about it.

why were you mortified? right

OP - I am still chuckling!
thanks for the enterainment.

I once got myself worked up so much, I couldn't type for love nor money. I ended up telling the entire company, via email, to "Cunt off, you fuck"

I'm being hostile? The MAJORITY of people posting in response to you have said you're being prissy. YOU need to read my pp, although I definitely do think you're being somewhat prissy, now you mention it.

And I've called a collective group of people cunts. I meant the men driving around beeping their horns aggressively at women walking along the street. But you (and a hand full of others) chose to read in to that something that fitted your agenda perfectly.
And I didn't correct you because as a regular poster on mumsnet I know that you can't reason with some people. They just won't hear it.

Now, I've got bigger fish to fry right now than discussing the merits of the wonderful word that is 'cunt'. My sister's dying. Life can be a stinking, rotten cunt sometimes.

Good day to you.

Some prim mysogynistic people should read up on it.

Great analysis of the word and it's origins Paws!

I wish everyone would read it and consider reclaiming the word for ourselves. 'Cunt' doesn't have to be the dirtiest word in the English language. There's nothing dirty about a fanny. In my opinion it's just another tool for shaming women and making us believe our sexuality is taboo.

I've said it before, I'll say it again.

All hail the power of the cunt! post-c[unt] world" (2012). Imagine the scene: wearing an 'I Love My Cunt' t-shirt and reading Cunt by Stewart Home whilst listening to Cunt by Aphex Twin on the hi-fi. With, for good measure,

I don't know what happened at the end there. Perhaps the rest of last nights wine and left me pissed as a cunt.

Treat yourself to this book OP: www.amazon.co.uk/Cunt-Declaration-Independence-Live-Girls/dp/1580050751/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?ref=plSrch&keywords=cunt&dpPl=1&dpID=51-KepKnpDL&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&tag=mumsnetforum-21&ie=UTF8&qid=1538523603&sr=8-3

Perhaps the rest of last nights wine and left me pissed as a cunt

Can't believe this cunting thread is still going

Can't we all just wave at each other and shout, "SEE YOU NEXT TUESDAY!" and leave it there?

I completely agree that it's seen as so "dirty" as another excuse to shame women. My cunt isn't dirty, thank you very much.

Hope you're OK, OP

I agree with you, @itchybumhole I don't understand why it has to be considered as foul language. But then, I've never understood why 'shit' is considered to be a swear word. It seems that anything that's connected to sex or the toilet is somehow rude, despite it being the most natural thing in the world.

I agree that this is another way to make women feel ashamed of their sexuality. Nobody reacts this way about male genitalia.

KEVIN BLOODY WILSON Cunt Of A Day

"The satirical newspaper the Onion offered a rare apology yesterday after it joked that 9-year-old actress Quvenzhané Wallis was "kind of a cunt, right?" Has that word always been so patently offensive?

No. In Middle English the word could be used as a standard term for the female genitalia, in a manner that was quite matter-of-fact."*

People were offended by The Onion's tweet, asking if 9-year old Academy Awards nominee Quvenzhané Wallis was a...term that rhymes with "runt." But why is it so offensive? Ana Kasparian and John Iadarola (Host, TYT University) discuss.

Just going to drop both C-bombs here... (need to get to the chorus but don't listen out loud at work)

I know some people who need to hear this - wonder if I dare send it to them??!
