MEDWAY (MA) – For parents of elementary school students here, a slogan for a nearby business stinks.
A Medway man's septic-system service boasts about his work with the words ``(Expletive) happens'' on trucks.
``It's not something I'd want my granddaughter to see,'' said Beverly Rechle, the grandmother of a McGovern Elementary School student.
But they do see it all day long as the trucks pull in and out across from the entrance to the school.
``I don't think it's a good thing for my son to read,'' said Debbie Lawton, mom to a first-grader. ``If he saw it, I'm sure he'd say, `How come I can't say that word, but the truck can?' ''
The school's principal, Wendy Rocha, said the foul language on the trucks had not been brought to her attention until now.
The owner of the business, Paul Trufant, said he's not cleaning up his potty talk, as one parent called it.
``This is America, not Iraq . . . it's freedom of speech,'' Trufant said ``There are so many pedophiles out there, why aren't (parents) more worried about pedophiles?''
You could say, criticism happens.
I find it funny.
But that's my South Park Republican side talking.
You know, I see their point. But, I have heard children that age say worse than that at a public school.
>>`How come I can't say that word, but the truck can?' ''
A talking truck? :)
"I bet you they won't play this song on the radio
I bet you they won't play this new (BLEEP) song
It's not that it's (blank) or (blank) controversial
It's just that the (bleep)ing words are awfully strong.
You can't see (Bleep!) on the radio
Or (Bleep!) or (Blank) or (Bleeeggggufg!)
You can't even say I'd like to (sound effect) you
someday
Unless you're a doctor with a very large (sound effect)
So I bet you they won't play this song on the radio
I bet you they won't (ching!)-ing well program it.\
I'll bet you their (bleep!)-ing old Program Directors
Will think it's a load of horse(flop)"--Monty Python
can't SAY that should say
There's a septic tank service company here in San Diego that has the slogan "Your crap is our bread and butter" painted on the back of every truck. It gets a laugh out of me every time.
>>also there is consequences
for Stern to having to resign your Senate Post
(Lott's words of praise for Thurmond), etc.
His truck says "When Doody Calls."
Oh I do too! But it's still funny!!
Oh man! That made me laugh!
Kind of like when National Lampoon's True Facts (funny
real-life photos) had a "missing letters" bit that included the following (no, the letter wasn't really missing, but...)
FU KING CHINESE RESTAURANT
ROFL...is that real??
oops--"yes, there are consequences, from Stern having to pay an FCC fine to Lott resigning his post over the Thurmond
comments--shouldn't have hit that post button before
fully checking out. You know what happens.
I think it is funny. But, I am more tolerant than most when it comes to that sort of thing.
According to this:

there really is a Fu King Chinese Restaurant in Lake City, FL!!
Ping.
