Fuck the Use of Bad Language

Last Friday my stomping ground's school paper published the words "Fuck Bush" in huge letters in the editorial section. Because of my deep hatred for the worst president of all time, I don't see what the big deal is. I guess the word "fuck" seems to ruffle some feathers, but not mine.

In dedication for the greatest expletive of all time, here are the top five films that drop the f-bomb the most.

#5. Jarhead - 2005 - Number of Fucks Spoken: 335. Length: 123 mins. Fucks Per Minute 2.72
-This war drama starring Jake Gyllenhaal and Jaime Foxx might have received mixed reviews due to the fact that it is a war film missing the war, but it is not missing the "f-bomb."

#4. Alpha Dog - 2007 - NFS: 267. Length:118 mins. FPM: 3.11.
While no one wants to see Sharon Stone in a fat suit, the use of "witness numbering" and stellar settings boost this bad drama to a mediocre. Plus, hearing a former mouseketteer say "fuck" over 40 times is pretty entertaining.

#3. Casino - 1995 - NFS: 398. Length: 178 mins. FPM: 2.24.
Sharon Stone in the countdown twice? Never mind that fallen star, Casino is the best film in this countdown. I can guarantee Joe Pesci accounts for more than half of the f-bombs said.

#2. Nil By Mouth - 1997 - NFS: 428. Length:128 mins. FPM: 4.43.
Written and directed by actor Gary Oldman, this movie revolves around a middle-class family living in the industrial district in London. I guess "bloody" doesn't have the same effect anymore.

# 1. Fuck - 2005 - NFS: 824. Length: 93 mins. FPM: 8.86.
This documentary covers the expletives history, origin and social impact with commentaries from actors and comedians. It was dedicated to Hunter Thompson who committed suicide shortly after production wrapped. Far-Fucking Out!
