I wouldn't eat that Fucker (It looks too good).
colin @ Jul 4th 2008 1:14AM
I think that is the first time I have read the word "fucker" or any version of the word "fuck" on a Joystiq post (comments excluded).
Good job!
Mr.ESC @ Jul 4th 2008 1:18AM
Did you know the word Fuck stands for Fornication Under [the] Control/Consent/Command of the King? In a ceratin way is anti-democratic.
colin @ Jul 4th 2008 2:21AM
that is an urban legend
Dan Davis @ Jul 4th 2008 2:28AM
@ Mr.ESC -- You should watch F**k (their asterisks, not mine).

Seriously, we have the internet--there's no excuse for spreading urban legends, especially ones this well documented.
The word fuck is at least 500 years old, and presumed to be of Anglo-Saxon origin (although Germanic origins have been hypothesized as well). Hell, read up on it here if you want, make up your own minds.
