Sometimes you just HAVE to say..."WTF???!!!"

I know...I know...you're thinking, "if you are such a Stinkin Genius, why resort to such language to express yourself?"...that is a valid point. However, sometimes proper and educated use of the English language just isn't enough to convey a certain message/tone. For example, you're driving along on the freeway, and some other "citizen" cuts you off...WTF? Or you get home after working 12 hours and not getting a bathroom break and you have to go through your "ritual". Your spouse (or significant other) knows your "ritual" and knows that you are almost home (because you talked to them for half your commute), but they still call you on the home phone and your cell phone to interrupt you and Mother Nature. When you finally cannot take it anymore, you get up, penguin walk to find the phone, answer it, and your spouse/significant other asks you a question like, "what is [insert name]'s phone number? Look it up on caller ID and call me back..."...WTF??? Or, you are at work, diligently plugging away at a problem that has surfaced and needs IT support and is really out of your control; however, a client (albeit a very important client) keeps calling to harass you because, "it's Friday Night and they want to go home!"...like it's not Friday Night in your time zone and you don't want to go home...WTF??? These are just some of the examples that sometimes call for a different type of expression. We here at SG do not begrudge anyone the use of vulgarities to express themselves because as Tom Cruise first told us in Risky Business, "sometimes you just have to say, WTF", put on your loc's (that's SoCal speak for sunglasses) and ride...Goodnight and Godspeed!
