[So Sollux thought it'd be a good idea to see what Earth movies are like. And with Crank as his only basis thus far, he's 1. not impressed, and 2. confused on a few things.]

Hey.

That movie that was shown last night, used a lot of words I don't know. Human vernacular ith really stupid and weird. Tho everyone should tell me all the thwear words they know and what they mean. There were like twenty onesth I didn't know in that movie, and I thtill don't get what they meant. Thith ith for educational purposes, of course.

Humans fill entire books with expletives and curses, and still don't list them all.

Which ones are you confused about, specifically?

If you wanted all the variations, that could take days.

But as far as English goes, most of them tie into sex, in one way or another. That, or the various ways to eject matter from the body, I suppose.

2o name 2ome of them.
ju2t telliing me "oh yeah they exii2t" doe2n't help me.

[heartsink]

Sigh.

Obvious ones out of the way: fuck shit piss cock cunt bitch bastard twat
douchebag
prick sometimes

There's also profane terms for just about any race, ethnicity, nationality, and sexual orientation, but I don't think you want the history lessons that go with those ones.

[biwinning]

cock cunt twat and priick.
what are tho2e 2peciifiically.

and no ii don't want two know tho2e.

[heartsink]

Human genitals. Cock and prick are vulgar words for the male's, cunt and twat (and pussy, I forgot to mention that one) are vulgar words for the female's.

[biwinning]

thank you, thii2 ha2 been very educatiional.

[heartsink]

The variations are pretty easy to understand once you've got those down, I think.

I don't really use them, myself, but I've had a few acquaintances whose first language may as well have been "Cocksucker's Cadence" English.

[biwinning]

me two.
but ii bet even the guy ii know doe2n't know the word twat.
ii fiinally have one-up here.

[heartsink]

Someone here?

If I had known this would be for a competition, I would have sent the list private. Sorry.

[biwinning]

iit'2 not that iimportant.

[heartsink]

If you don't mind me asking, who was it?

[biwinning]

[heartsink]

I've run into a surprising number, actually. But if you don't want to say, I won't press.

[biwinning]

[heartsink]

[ well that's

and possibly a relief but haha like she's gonna say shit about that. ]

Sorry, I'm too curious for my own good. Just wondering if he was one of the ones I've talked to is all.

[biwinning]

he ii2n't here.

[heartsink]

Anymore.

[biwinning]

yeah.
he wa2, but now he'2 not.

[heartsink]

That's all I was wondering.

If he's a friend of yours, I hope you'll get the chance to see him again.

[biwinning]

[heartsink]

Already? That's a surprise.

[biwinning]

ii haven't 2een aradiia iin more than half a 2weep.
and when ii have 2een karkat, iit'2 been 2pariingly and dii2tant.
why bother.

[heartsink]

I don't, myself. But then, I don't expect to find even one person here that's important to me and vice versa. I gave up on hope—for myself, specifically—a long time before I ever got here.
