the more you know…

this morning I’m celebrating sending all my licensing show stuff to the printers yesterday! since getting this stuff together meant days and days of getting up at 4 or 5am to work before going to work, my celebrating is taking the form of sitting in bed playing words with friends on my phone. (you can start up a game with me if ya like, my username is heartsandlaserbeams!)

I tried playing the word crap this morning in a game against my friend steph, because I had the letters and a place to put em… I never thought the game would actually allow a swear word, but I hit play and it accepted it which cracked me up!

but what cracks me up even more is a few days ago I tried to play the word wang in a game with my friend kim, and the game said “ummmmm… no.”

so moral of the story, the words with friends app likes some swears and dirty words, but not others. that it accepts any swears at all makes it better than the scrabble app in my book! I’m currently writing a letter to my congressman asking that all swears be included in all word games from here on out – boggle! crosswords! outburst! don’t discrimihate on truckdriver vocabulary! our swears just wanna be heard, dangit!

p.s., I like that using my swear on a triple word score pushed me into the lead on this particular game. and they say swearing gets you nowhere.
