To some people, the F-word always means fuck. I think most of us hear something else when this phrase is voiced. And I have a theory that we all hear something different.
In the semi-recent performance of True + False at the Fringe Festival, the F-word meant friend. It was a dating story if you couldn’t guess.
When I hear the F-word, I think FREAK, usually announced at full playground volume accompanied by straight-armed finger-pointing.
In these cases, the F-word is associated with things the user doesn’t want to be. That’s what I think everyone hears. Some kind of word related to what they don’t want.
Agree or disagree? What do you hear?
