happythoughts 0 #1 October 1, 2008 Everyone has heard of a "cuss" jar. Anyone who uses cuss words, has to put 25 cents in the jar. This will go for movies and television. Since actors get residuals on such things, they also have to pay residual cuss jar amounts every time the movie or tv show is broadcast. For music broadcasts and music media, the same. Every time that a song is broadcast too. (Hence the name of rapper Fitty Cent.) Anybody on the street can bust anyone else. (Plus, they'll cuss when they get busted. 25 cents more.) One percent of the money will be used to fund old-school Disney-type movies involving 10-year olds who don't have sex and own a dog and a mitt. Three percent will go to adding free cornbread to school lunches. Four percent will be given out as prizes at Karaoke contests. The rest is up to your suggestions. A cultural Renaissance and a better world. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

happythoughts 0 #6 October 1, 2008 Quote We said if you don't got Mojo Nixon, then your store could use some fixin.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVNi8vw83w4 Exactly. Thus, the Karaoke money. Everybody should do something with music, even if it varies. As someone once told me, "It was interesting to hear you sing, but we'd like to hold your car keys now." btw, cornbread is not required, it is just part of the overall process of enlightenment. Not everyone has had exposure to the cuisine that delights. People take aspirin because it makes them feel better. So, cornbread and black-eyed peas may fall under the heading of medicines. A pint of milk, a pan of cornbread, and pot of seasoned peas. Mmm.... better than ice cream. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bolas 5 #7 October 2, 2008 Quote Quote The rest is up to your suggestions. Fuck that. Banning words is what gives them power. The word "nigger" would be far less powerful if people stopped using "the 'N' word." At work we used to have problems, they became issues, now they're looking for a new word because issues now sounds too serious. They're so focused on wording, they're neglecting addressing the reason for the words.Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

BillyVance 35 #9 October 2, 2008 Can you imagine how much money would be in the jar over my lifetime for every cuss word I have uttered or screamed? I could pay off my fucking house with it right about now.

FlyingJ 0 #10 October 2, 2008 Quote Can you imagine how much money would be in the jar over my lifetime for every cuss word I have uttered or screamed? I could pay off my fucking house with it right about now. Our original Nintendo system was sponsored by the swear jar. Once we had a goal in mind we became little bastards doing everything we could to elicit a curse out of our parents. Putting a rubber band around the sink sprayer just before dad came down in the morning was always good for at least $1, sometimes even more if he had already gotten dressed. Killing threads since 2004. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
