Do you really know what they mean?

     In everyday language, we end up saying certain words that we really don't think about, as far as why we use them. Its not just the fact that we're not thinking and realizing that we're saying them, but as far as how we are actually using these words that we are choosing to use. Some of them are actual words in the dictionary and have meaning to the, but when we decide to use them, we turn them into slang and try to give it its own meaning to where it is put in the dictionary. If you're not sure what words I'm talking about, I'm talking about profanity and other words that are up there but just not nice/good to say. Sure I might sound like a little kid, but really think about. Words such as: ass, bastard, bitch, damn, douche, fuck, slut, whore; we're using these words to describe someone else or give ourselves that title instead of our own unique and positive title. In this blog you'll the actual meaning to these words and how they are used as slang words. I will tell you right now, this is not to make anyone feel awkward or offended. So if you get offended, you might not want to read the rest of this....fair warning.
