fuck


people sometimes have words that they repeat. 

often they're pretty common words. 

words like 'like'. 

you know, words like that

and words like 'that'. 

well, i say this one word a lot. 

probably more than i say 'a lot'. 

and boy, do i say a lot of things. 

i say this one word a lot. 

'fuck'. 

i said it too much last night. 

certainly. 

definitely. 

should not have done that. 

but it's a nice word to say a lot. 

better than, like, 'like'. 

people certainly say that a lot. 

people definitely say 'that' a lot. 

well, fuck, i mean, they're prepositions, right? 

that's not it. 

is it? 

how do i not know this after all the years of grade school?
