There's a Problem with "The Seven Words You Can't Say on Television"




The beauty part is it's fifty+ years later ... and you still can't.

Stephen Colbert got a sleazy slider with cock-holster but that's not a real win versus cocksucker which is really what he meant to say but we got a network euphemism instead.

The original list:  shit, piss, fuck, cunt, cocksucker, motherfucker, and tits.

Nope, not one of them has made the pass to TV.


Lenny Bruce lit the original torches but he wound up a dead junkie on the floor of a toilet behind it.

I mean no disrespect, I just wish he had never fucked with that smack.  Another brilliant light so wasted.

Lenny Bruce lit it all up for the comedians which followed.  He was a highly-perceptive genius and, what a shock, the state hated him.

Ed:  those cocksuckers

That didn't change either.
