The Fuck Family (34/261)

My neighbours the Fuck Family were spartan yet creative linguists, using the same word to express each of the eight major parts of speech: noun, verb, adjective, adverb, pronoun, preposition, conjunction and interjection. They even managed to employ it as an occasional term of endearment.

four letters, and so many connotations ... eventually they'll have to create a dictionary just for this one word

by the way, this was pretty effin funny, even if they could have used a little variety to widen their range of communication

your writing is a bit like finding the prize at the bottom of the box of Cracker Jacks ... you can't wait to see what surprises are inside the wrapper
