The Worst Swear Word in the World

Jon Robson, writing for The Guardian:

My eight-year-old son, Joel, comes into my office to ask if there’s a worse swearword than fuck. “No,” I say.

There’s a silence. “You’re lying,” he says.

“There’s none worse than fuck,” I say.

Joel narrows his eyes. “I know you’re lying,” he says. He leaves the room.

Great quest for the worst swear word ensues. Dad wonders how to sidestep said quest. Much hilarity in the followup tale about the whole thing.

Newspapers need more pieces like this.
