Best *!&@! Article Ever

Well, at least the best article on cursing. While I've somehow received a G-rating for this site, I think the politics of cursing are fascinating. Look at how much time and emotion we put into the idea of cursing. No, you can't say that word -- that'll get you a parental advisory warning. If you said that word in class, you could get fired. Et cetera. I'm not advocating for a cuss like a gangsta rapper society or for prudishness. What I am advocating is that y'all read an incredibly interesting article on cursing by Dr. Stephen Pinker, available the New Republic's website.

Hey, it can't be all drugs, "science," and PR all the time on this site, can it? Actually, I have a tie-in. When doing my investigative work for this site, look at how many times I've ended up thinking "WTF is going on here??!?!?!" A few examples:

• Demented Marketing of Zyprexa
• Off-Label Marketing of Zyprexa
• Atypical Antipsychotics vs. Older Meds: $$$
• AstraZeneca's Sponsored Editorial
• Martin Keller, Bad Science, and Paxil
• BOLDER Statements
• Martin Keller Stumping for Long-Term Effexor Treatment
• Key Opinion Leader Contradicts Himself
• PhRMA President Contradicts Himself
• Antipsychotic Newspeak
• Subthreshold Bipolar: The Giant Sucking Sound
• SSRI's, Suicide, and Dunce Journalism
