    Listening to a folk punk song that uses the word fuck to great effect on Spotify yesterday, wondering why the fuck the line ‘If you fuck up I will still be your friend’ reads ‘If you f up’.

    I just don’t get it. Fuck is a valid, if vulgar, part of the common English lexicon. It serves a purpose.
