This Is a Big F***ing Deal
Vice President Joe Biden dropped the F-bomb on live television.
He told President Obama on the passage of the health care bill, “This is a big f***ing deal.” Here is the link: Link
I think most of us have dropped a curse word at an inappropriate moment. The story reminded me of the first time I cursed in front of my mother. It slipped out of my mouth.
Have you ever cursed in front of your parents?

All the time.
No, but she curses in front of me regularly.
Joe Biden just wants to be Bono. One can empathize.
I curse along with my parents.
I saw that on the news tonight for the first time….makes you wonder how they talk to each other in the White House.
Yep and I was embarrassed as hell….
It’s so amazing how parents can basically curse us out but we cant curse without being called “fresh” or told to “Watch our mouths”. I’m grown damn it! You cant tell me to be grown then say watch my mouth. Pick one!!!
Nothing will be done about it. Bono dropped the F Bomb on national television. Since it wasn’t used in a sexual way nothing will be done about it. Its not vulgar.
no, never.
My mom used to tell us that “Stupid” was a curse word and hit us when we said it. lol.
I remember the first time I let a curse word slip my mom didn’t even notice. But I guess I got slack with watching my mouth because she heard it the second time and you better believe I got a long lecture out of that one.
Oh, and to answer your question, my dad curses when he gets mad in front of me….I had to try like heck to keep from laughing the first time I heard my mom she “well shit!” It just sounded funny coming out of her.
Lawl, win. Just goes to show that they’re real people.
Not since I got my mouth washed out with ‘Thrill Dish Soap’ ,it was Peach scented and it was not a thrill in the least!
I’ve cursed in front of my mom. She picks when she’s sensitive to it and when she’s not.
I had to watch that many times to hear it. It’s only something you’d hear if you’re looking for it. As for the parents, Oh God no. My dad doesn’t care but my mom sure would.
HAHA i still remember the first time i said “fuck” in front of my mom. i was talking about my brother and something had happened and i was like “he can get the fuck over it”. she was just like WHAT DID YOU SAY? good times.
I just watched a video about this on funnyordie. I’m sure they only put on the persona that they’ve got a perfect vocabulary for the public, I’ll be that’s a regular off camera. Anyway, I don’t curse in front of my family unless I’m really upset when recalling a story.
I’ve accidentally swore, I try to keep four filters.
Elders (parents/family/family friends)
School (limited, but not completely void of foul language)
Public (walking around, hanging out)
Private
Yes I have and my Mom beat the living fuck out of me with a stick! My parents are good parents OLD SCHOOL! Not this pansy-ass feed you kid Prozac shit!
I don’t curse, but my brother has been cussing in front of my parents since he was ten.
They really don’t care.
yes and i would smacked and time out
I have accidentally, but I keep a lid on it around them and my sisters. I live with my brother, though, and we swear all the time.
i never cursed at all until i was a junior in high school. i went from saying none to saying them all fairly regularly. weird..
Yep, but I curse in another language my parents don’t understand.
hahaha. i’ve only done it in times of extreme anger, in which case my mother is too wound up with me to even notice that it escaped from my mouth.
i really don’t think it’s a big deal, though. i don’t think any differently of biden because he said it. if anything, he’s right!
Haha, only when I wasn’t sure what it meant when I was like 5.
Actually no, I take that back. My mom and I have both been swearing a little more since my dad died last year. Somehow, the ugly words that we spit out when we feel so awful inside don’t really seem to count…
~V
fuck yeah.
yes..and i got smacked like hell for it!
I’ve never cussed at all.
Unless “bloody” counts. And even then it was because I had a bloody nose, and I was making a pun out of referring to my nose as a British profanity.
at least biden understood the seriousness of it all. hahaha
I’m 20 and still have not cussed in front of my parents. I was raised in a military family, so I’m basically an obedient puppy for my parents.
Fuck yeah.
I called my dad a dickhead at the dinner table when I was 9. The outcome was not pleasant.
I just outlined to my mother why I approve of her fucking a 24 year-old. Go mom.
I am hereby calling for Joe Biden to resign at once for this disgusting outburst. It’s bad enough our children are exposed to profanity at the movies but now we have the Vice President corrupting their young minds. Shameful. Absolutely shameful.
yea.. I never drop the f bomb though… unless i’m pissed and it slips…
This made me laugh.
I cuss in front of my mom occasionally, but not in front of my dad. He’s very, I don’t know how to say it, uncomfortable about it? I’m not sure how to describe it. You can tell he gets annoyed about it, but he won’t say anything and he won’t really get mad as long as you’re not dropping a cuss word every other sentence.
Yeah. It comes out occasionally on accident.
I did… Then I got Dawn dish detergent in my mouth and that was the end of that.
Come on, everyone curses. At least occasionally.
I’ve almost said it in front of my parents…it was like “FUC-” and I stopped before the “kuh” sound haha. They think it’s the worst thing that you could ever say…
I accidentally told my mother “she was butt-fucked” when I was describing my first case, of course it had to be rape, right?
She almost passed out and said she didn’t think I should stay in that career, it was turning me into someone she didn’t want me to be.
yup, I think everyone has at one point. Favorite child/parent cursing moment: A Christmas Story, the changing of the tire scene
I still have all my teeth, so no-never have. Joe Biden, Dick Cheney, Dick Nixon-it’s an American tradition.
No.
However since my sister went to uni five years ago in another city (her course lasted three years) and has worked for two, her language has got a little bit bad at times.
We don’t curse in front of our Nan and Granddad, when my Great Nan was alive we did not curse as well.
@seedsower - Oh yuck. I’ve had my mouth washed out with soap, but not that kind!
And yes, I’ve cursed – once (but as an adult). My mom and dad used to think other words were bad enough to be considered their version of curse words (like “stupid” and “retard” – I’ll agree on that now that I’m a parent, but I thought they were “stupid” for that back when I was a kid).
No. But if we take into account the fact that “shut up” is a “big f***ing deal” to my mum, then technically, I have.
Yes, a lot. But not at them. That is a whole different ball game.
I never did. I guess I’m weird, huh? Our leaders should be a better example. Why would our children want to follow a leader like that?
OMG! Biden said th F-word! GASP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The media fucking sucks (by focusing on shit like this), and morons swallow it up. It’s a completely irrelevant non-issue. Kthxbai.
My mom curses like a sailor, I learned from the best. Of course I swear around my parents.
Not that I can recall. But my mom let the “s” word fly so many times when she was helping me drive cross country once, my 18-month-old daughter said it non-stop from Oklahoma to California. I’m just glad I only let Mom drive for one hour. After that she was on baby duty.
@SirNickDon - or despise.
I do it, and my mom does too, so no big deal there.
no
In front of them, about them, at them. We’re like The Waltons on Southern Comfort
No, I generally avoid cursing in the presence of people, period.
I have never cursed in front of my parents but I don’t really have parents anymore. I also don’t have curse words in my usable vocabulary anymore.
My stepfather drops f-bombs every other word. I don’t think he know’s of any other adjectives.
Lol… yeah. My parents could make a sailor blush, though. Now that we all have kids and stuff, we’re all pretty wholesome, though.
When I was 15 I told my dad to shut the f*** up. Needless to say, I got smacked across the face. I deserved that and I’ve never made that mistake again. Generally speaking though, I do not cuss. I find it highly inappropriate and offensive.
nope
I rarely swear anyways but I highly doubt I’ll ever curse in front of my parents.
Well, it IS a big fucking deal.
Yeah, I sometimes cuss in front of them (note: never at them); I can get away with lesser swear words but I avoid the F bomb and worse around them.
All the time. They do it just as often as me, so technically they can’t get mad.
When I was a teenager I wasn’t even allowed to say crap or stupid. Yeah. Can you say sheltered child?
I don’t think this was an inappropriate time to curse. After all, this is a big fucking deal.
Wow, some of you would not last very long in a political/state office if this bothers you.
As for cussing infront of my parents, who the bloddy hell do you think I learned it from???
If the messiah’s assistant can say fuck on national television, it must not be a bad word.
@UnworthyofHisgrace - Um, probably the same as anyone else in a company. Although I expect there’s some looseness with it. I mean, they’re human too. Obama can call Kanye a jackass and Biden can drop an F bomb. I really don’t care.
My mom just doesn’t like swearing. She doesn’t do it herself so I don’t do it in front of her. I don’t think I’ve ever let it slip. I might have been messing with her and said “ass” or something.
Nice teeth on that chick. Not one cavity.
did he really?? wow lol and yeshhh i have but it wasnt no big fucking deal. :]
all of the time. my dad hates it when i swear because i’m a girl.
@tendollar4ways - or she just gets the white stuff you put in them…like me
Yes.
yes, and they don’t like it, but I learned it all from them so tough shit. XD
when I was probably 12 or so, a tree was blown over by strong wind one time and knocked our rain gutter off the roof, and was a few feet away from crashing into my bedroom (we were all out of the house at the time though). when I found out I said “that sucks” and I was screamed at for about five minutes. :p gimme a break.
I swear in front of my parents all the time, but when I was younger I was terrified of swear words. LOL I remember the first time I swore in front of my dad … eep!
P.S. I love the plug! <3
haha. awesome
Never. I can’t imagine cursing in front of my parents and them just shrugging it off.
Never heard my parents curse either.
My grandmother curses like a sailor, I find it hilarious coming from her. But I don’t curse.
Umm. Yeah, but ive only dropped the Fbomb twice. bahaa. That was a bad plan.
Hey, why are the ish sites advertised at the bottom of your site?
Lol…Biden is THE MAN!!
truthfull i tend to do it alot :lol
1) the woman pointing at me has NOTHING to do with Joe stupid Biden
2) this blog really has nothing to do with “i remember swearing the first time”
3) joe biden is the freaking VP of the USA he knows better therefore he is stupid
4)i dont think anyone is stupider than Joe Biden his hair plugs are falling out
5) lame lame and more lame Come on Dan you know better
@A_NY_Zone61 - um no he isnt hes a moron and so are you
@Jeremy_Sheer - The only moron here is you. You have your opinion and I have mine, insulting me unnecessarily…gets you nowhere. F***ing loser.
@A_NY_Zone61 - *COUGH SARCASM DOUBLE *COUGH stop taking people so seriously
@Jeremy_Sheer - Learn how to use sarcasm more efficiently, especially in text form.
The worst I’ve said is “hell” when I was much younger. I keep it clean around my parents. Not because I have to, but because I prefer to. My parents swear, my brother swears, I’m just not the swearer IN the family.
ahaha joe biden is a stinkin’ bum with no class
anyway my mom would beat me if i cussed around her
That depends. Do you count times where you try to say one word and it comes out different in spite of the fact the contextually it makes no sense? …because I may have had that happen once. I can’t recall.
As for Biden, I don’t think that a political leader who can’t hold his tongue and at least keep his words appropriate has any buisness being in office. It reveals a lack of self-control and restraint that is needed in positions of leadership such as his.
Yeah…my mom..
But either she didn’t hear over the music or she was shocked into silence by the comment someone made an hour or two later that I have an arch like a pornstar.
God, I love powerlifting.
I have, but I have a question…. Do you have to pay to show up on the recent or most viewed. Just curious. I am thinking it doesn’t show unless you pay but new to the site, figured I would ask and see what people knew. Thanks.
I do but public figures should be more restrained, accepting this is like accepting Bush and his speaches. I really don’t care either way but really?
hahaha, yeah, and she always tells me to watch my language. usually i won’t say fuck in front of her, but every once in a while it slips out. i think she’s used to it now, and just considers me the “potty mouth” of the family.
i constantly said fuck waiting for my dad to pick up the phone because I was in trouble.. i totally forgot that my dad was suppose to pick up the phone because I did call him afterall. He answered even more angry at me lol. but this was 8 years ago… Now they just get appalled when I slip sometimes.
Nothing wrong by being human however one should expect more from our so called leaders. One should ask what examples are they of us to the world and to our young?
I think I was about 2 when I first did it. I was in the hospital with with tubes in my nose. The doctor came in with a ton of interns and asked me what she could do for me. I simply told her “Can you get these damn things out of me?” I’m sure I’d heard my parents talking amongst themselves. I am reminded of this slip ALL the time. It’s still funny.
Now, however, even at 22, I still feel bad for cursing in front of my parents, even though it’s been allowed and I’ve done it numerous times. I’m nearly finished with college and still have issues using foul language in front of the same people who taught it to me. Imagine that. I guess they got it right.
freedom of speech
No.
Yes, but I am an adult, so they can’t punish me for it anymore.
I happen to curse far too often, and so there for since I unfortunately still live with my parents, they hear it. As of the Vice-Prez not so sure he should have been caught on film. Oh well.
HAHA. I curse in front of my parents all the time. My dad yells at me when I lay in the F-bomb though, so I have to refrain that word around him.
I have.
I was 12 when “sh!t” came right out in the middle of a sentence.
Talk about diarrhea of the mouth, dang.
My parents and I have a running joke where we curse loudly and excessively for no reason.
But in the rest of the world many people seem to think I never curse at all.
Oh, and in fairness, Biden was right.
