llighten up? i can tell you don't have kids and certainly not teenage girls who love to get on pinterest and see interesting things. it isn't just about you if you post things for others to see. i will not follow you any more which is a shame because i loved your stuff.
Shellia Wright
THIS IS SO NOT APPROPRIATE, I JUST INVITED MY DAUGHTER-IN-LAWS AND A FRIEND PLEASE STOP THIS OR YOU ARE GOING TO MISS A LOT OF VIEWERS!!!!!!
Sarah Ellis-Nielson
Wow, some of u people should take a chill pill, it's a funny picture and it's just words. It's not like she's being a bigot or putting someone down. Geesh
Kelcy McIntyre
Are you guys serious? There is a single curse word, on a site I don't think children have access to. The joke itself is encouraging fun! It's not like she made this image first of all, second of all unfollow her if you don't like it! No need to cry about it.
Caitie Brennan
I hate to break it to you but all of your teenager who are on Pinterest have heard this word before. She's right, you guys do need to lighten up. They won't be kids forever! Being a helicopter parent will only make it worse.
Debi Mann
I got a letter the other day because I had Pinned something about a baby boy being operated on and Pinterest Deleted it BUT THIS CAN BE ON HERE! WHAT THE HECK!!!!!
Alaythea Carroll
Actually, Jennifer, I do have a daughter. And no she's not a teenager yet but I'm pretty sure by the time she is she'll have heard the "f word" especially since one of her 4 yr old class mates called the teacher a "b*tch" the other day. I'll teach her it's wrong but I'll also teach her not to be so tight she can take a joke.
Alaythea Carroll
Oh and don't follow who ever you don't wanna follow....it's not that big of a deal! Lol!
Heather Stapp Dunn
Wow! If parents don't want their kids exposed to this kind of stuff then they should not allow them on the internet! Lighten up! Its meant to be funny!
Susan Sexton
oh...and I think my 4 year old probably actually thinks this to himself when he thinks something is super fun !!!!
Shannon
wow...the first real dose of pinterest drama! nice job! those of you that are heartily offended or encouraging elementary aged children to view pinterest unattended, i hope that you are aware that there are many visual artists and photographers that post photo/artwork ideas that have partial nudity. as with any other content, you have the power to censor for your children and self-edit what you would like/not like to see. perhaps pay attention to the old adage..."if you don't like it, don't look."
Kelcy McIntyre
This site is about spreading ideas and images... and they aren't guaranteed to be your cup of tea. I suggest you guys stay away from the category of "Photography" on this site as it might give you a heart attack (because GASP some people think it's okay to even show ankle!) Have fun trying to police the Internet.
Gina Dezuzio
what an uptight flounce-fest. pinterest is not advertised as a family fun center, like nickolodeon kids, or barbie.com. i agree that people should follow the site rules, however, if you want a totally "clean" website for your children, stick to child-oriented websites. they are the only places where you can be assured your child won't be likely to encounter foul language.
this is a site for artistic creativity in all its forms, so take your cries for censorship elsewhere. not to mention, i agree with the above posters: if your kids are viewing non-child-oriented websites, why aren't you viewing them with your kids? don't expect websites to monitor your child's net usage/exposure. that's YOUR job.
Courtney Hockett
All of you people complaining are morons. It's kind of like Facebook. If you don't like what someone posts, don't follow them. Furthermore, don't search "everything." And the girl a few posts before me who said many photographers and artists use this site. Me included. Children shouldn't have access to this site just like they shouldn't have access to Facebook, Myspace, etc. YOU need to monitor your children, not us. So instead of trying to tell others what to do with their OWN interests, perhaps you should worry about actually parenting your children. You have control over yourself, your own pinterest, and your children. Everyone else has control of their own. It's one word. Fuck. Just a word. Maybe if, instead, you started teaching your children (and yourselves) to love one another, to not be self centered, to not believe they are the only ones that matter, and to do good things for others, you wouldn't be so worried about a word. Worry about your actions and the actions of your children. Not about words you see on the internet.
Angela Bazemore-Tallman
I think its hilarious...screw the others that dont...that means they dont have a sense of humor...god forbid it says a curse word on the internet...ooohhhh noooo...lol...i thinks its funny...people get a freaking life already...kids know what sex is at a young age im sure they will understand what a dang curse word is!!!!!!!!
Patty Shultz-Rogaskie
I really enjoy Pinterest. I was offended by this pin not just because it is a bad word but because it's attached to a kid. That is just my opinion. I still like to have one just like everyone else. I don't think this is drama it is real life and I think it's too bad that people feel the urge to comment if they want. I don't think this is drama but just a conversation between adults.
Annika Laurea-Wood
Honestly, if it's not your cup of tea, look at the next pin. We don't have to like or approve of all of the pins. We can however choose to be gracious and move on.
Erika Bradley
YAY to everyone that says "LIGHTEN UP". EXACTLY. If your 7 year old child/granddaughter is looking at Pinterest, then that's a PARENTING FAIL. Check yourselves before you ruin the party for the rest of us.
Barbara Jordan
Would be nice and considerate if you would keep offensive language of sites like this as children do see them!
Pam Davis
I think it may be a generational thing - younger people just aren't offended by much of anything, so its just not a big deal. Older folks didn't grow up hearing that word all the time so its still pretty offensive.
Angel Klingenberg
I say worse in walmart when people don't keep their kids under control. They are going to hear the language no matter what. Again if your 7 yr old is on Pinterest, then its a parenting fail, or an uber bored kid they have sites for kids. Just sayin
Katrina N Albert Garcia
Y'all need to calm the fuck down. Oh woops there may be a 5 year old on here that might see it. Get a life parents. Yes, I am a parent too but at least I have the common sense to not let my young children on a site that obviously is for adults. As for you "parents" that have teenagers, that is your issue whether or not you allow them to be on a site like this and be honest I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be the first time they read or heard the word FUCK. @Courtney Hockett pretty much put it best!!
Amelia Cheney
this site wasn't intended for young children, therefore the site should have to be censored for young children. If you don't like some of the pins then either be more careful about what is on your feed or get off pinterest. Someone should not have to compromise because parents decide to let their children, who probably don't understand half the stuff on pinterest anyway, look at this website.
Jenn Schaller
I'm with Shannon...this is an adult site. If you cannot monitor what your kids are reading/watching then you shouldn't be allowing them on here. I see no shock factor in this pic..it's actually rather hilarious and I have witnessed way worse use of language on this site X's a billion. Quit getting your panties in a wad and go bake some cookies or something...there are some great freaking recipes on my board. ha!
Patty Shultz-Rogaskie
See being the older generation we can't have opinions. Frankly I am sick of hearing the F word if that is what you really want to use I don't care. Just giving opinion
Courtney Hockett
Oh, one more thing...... If you are so worried about what your kids might learn on Pinterest..... Perhaps you should be more worried about the pro-anorexia Pin that's going around instead of a silly little word. Just sayin'.
Joy Fedorak
OMG all this drama just made my day!!! But the pic was the funniest one I have seen in a long time. I so love the term "flounce fest" you can just see the uptight woman that attend it!
Tessa Nelson
too funny! And really, like someone else said, you're kids have heard this word before... and more to the point, should your children be on the internet alone if you don't want them to see this?! It's YOU'RE responsibility to keep your children off line not our responsibility to make sure when your unsupervised child is on line that they don't see something they shouldn't. COME ON!
Teneik Martin
Gotta love the fact that because of the drama this pin is going to spread like wildfire now ;)
Polly Neill
What a fuss about nothing, but . . . @Courtney Hockett, I think we have the right to pin whatever we want, just about, but calling people who disagree with you morons seems pretty unnecessary. @Pam Davis, I'm 62, one of the crazy left wing hippies who considered "fucking" a necessary modifier. As I have aged I have tried to learn to control my mouth, I really don't want to offend anyone, but sometimes it just slipsssssssss out. . . .
Polly Neill
$10. says the Pinterest developers, if they are even paying attention, are laughing their asses off.
Jennifer Smith
I agree w/ all the other posts that people should calm down. It may not be appropriate for children and teens but then again this is what is on the web....Pinterest is probably not intended for children. As if these kids don't hear this language at School.....come on people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
Joy Gray
this pic made me laugh because if that little girl knew that word, that's the exact thought going through her mind. it's funny, period. if you are offended, unfollow this woman, or better yet get off the computer and go see what your child who has never heard a curse word is up to.
Nadine Gallegos-Haskin
I'm far more offended that people let their kids view this site unattended t than the picture itself.. Which I hastily repinned
Joy Fedorak
Shannon it is so true right, looks like Reba is at " The Fest", I LMFAO when I read that comment, I too will work it into as many conversations as I can.
Jennifer Smith
Seriously Joy!!! I second that!!! She clearly has too much time on her hands....better monitor those kids spilling the "f" bomb!!!!
Joy Fedorak
Jennifer(xo) @ Reba, I have great children so thank you on remarking on their amazing upbringing. They are very well rounded adults that I hope never walk around with their heads up their a*s and missing half of life.
Jessica Border
Pro tip: talk to your kids. Play with them, even. Pinterest is not a ficking babysitter. Christ.

Sarah Ellis-Nielson
Geeze people, as an educator I know kids. I have worked at each and every grade level. LET IT GO!!! If you're worried about your child seeing it, keep them off the site. I personally have broader concerns for my child than simple foul language. For instance, Ya know, things like teaching them to care about those less fortunate than them, doing their best to make a difference, and etc. I'm sure some will feel the need to insult others and myself for grammar/ whatever. My point? It's a pic. its funny. Leave it be.
Danielle Ward
Don't get on the internet if you're offended over little stuff. Immature people who want everything PC. Grow up. Life is hard. You will see and hear things you don't like. Put on your big girl panties and get over it.
Stephanie Cote
Oh noes! Someone said a bad word on the internet! Guess what, folks - it happens. For the record, this is far from the worst thing on the internet, and words are only bad if you say they're bad. And, just for the record, if you don't want your children/sister/mom/friend/dog/whothehellever to see something, that is YOUR responsibility to play the part of the parent and keep your kid away from it. No one should have to monitor their behavior, providing it isn't hurting anyone (and this isn't hurting anyone - stuck up, butt-hurt momzillas don't count) because some other random person on the internet has a kid who also, gasp, gets on the internet. Get over it, and unfollow her if you don't want to see it.. Stop wasting your life getting upset over things that don't matter.
Joy Fedorak
Well said Sarah, and Amanda lol oh and Lisa you are right I would have been so bored at work right now!. Reba, a good example to who??? my beautiful daughter that is a program director for " Make a wish Foundation" after she finishes at her full time job or my other beautiful daughter or my gorgeous son that go out and help her put the projects together after they have finished work?
Angel Johnson
You don't like then don't follow this person. It's that simple. Also I really hope you guys that are whinging "Think of the children" aren't letting your kids/grand kids wander the internet unsupervised. It's called being a parent get off your lazy butt and do it.
J Danielle Wehunt
I'm just gonna go ahead and say it, but the majority ( not all, but, generally most) of the 40+ Mommy crowd ruin ever fucking piece of social media out there. Go read your Kindles and make candles from your kit you bought at Michael's. Let the generation that made this stuff KEEP IT FOR OURSELVES. Sometimes, I cherish the days that you people didn't know how to turn a computer on.
Jessica Requena
LOL Thank you for the hilarious comments. Really though, all you conservatives need to get off it. I've seen worse on here and you're acting ridiculous
Sandra Turner
Kirby: Some even swear in real life. Imagine the horror... FWIW, this pic cheered me up after hearing some terrible news today. F*ck yeah!
Katherine Udy
when people get offended over dumb things= baahahahahahaha :D made my day, I do feel kind of bad that people have to be upset instead of seeing the joke, their loss.
Jessica Elaine
Children under the age of 13 are not allowed on Pinterest as per the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998. If your child or grandchild is under the age of 13 and using the internet unsupervised then the problem is not this pin.
Also, when I was a kid I did not use adult language because I had been taught not to, not because I had never heard a curse word.
And this gave me the lulz btw.
Jennifer F
You know all of the people that are bitching about their precious little (unsupervised) little angels seeing this are the same ones that subject me to a daily barrage of uterine x-rays, updates on which of your offspring are going "poopie in the potty" and other various disgusting crap. So, get off the computer and go parent your freaking child.
Gina Dezuzio
thanks for the props on "flounce fest", but i have to give at least partial credit to regretsy for introducing me to the word "flounce". (and making it more awesome by creating Flounce Cats...which are just what they sound like! Google image search that for a good laugh.) :) ♥
J Danielle Wehunt
@Jennifer Ferraro... YOU ARE SO RIGHT! Dont they realize that no one wants to see that crap!?
Kelcy McIntyre
@Gina Dezuzio I think I love you! This thread definitely needs more Flounce Cats. I think I'm going to 'shop one into this picture and re-pin it. (Regretsy ftw)
Jessica Elaine
Also, it's funny that this many people weren't offended by the pics circulating on Pinterested after Halloween of the toddler dressed as a homeless person. You know, the one that everyone thought was just SO hilarious. Yeah, making fun of the poor = awesome, dropping the f-bomb = worst thing ev0r! Go family values!
Joy Fedorak
You guys are so funny I wish I had given birth to most of you, the excluded ones you know who you are...
Kristey Dowden Kelley
OK J Danielle...as a 40+ mommy...NO WAY! It's other moms who are wound so tightly that their pubes get caught in their panties!!! (Says the over 40 mom. :-P)
Kim Ulmanis
Amen, Jennifer. Amen. Some of you seriously need to just get over yourselves. It's a WORD. As Jennifer pointed out some of you parents have to talk about every little poop, fart, barf, or other nasty moment your offspring does and yet you go ballistic over a simple word. I'd much rather read the F word than read about your precious spawn taking a crap. Instead of whining about a silly little word get your angry and miserable selves OFF the damn internet and go parent your kids. If you're worried about your teenager seeing it, well, you must be pretty sheltered. Just about every teenager has heard and read MUCH worse just by going to school every day. Chill out and go do something besides bitch about ONE picture with ONE word.
Joy Fedorak
@ Kristey, this may also be because that are just F**ING uptight to trim or
god forbid REMOVE them. @ Alanna, yes she does...lol and @ Kim, Amen to you too...
Leah Van Moorsel
Don't tell me they don't hear worse at school! And i bet half of your kids are saying it with out you knowing anyway.
Joy Fedorak
People who think their kids never hear it or say it usually have the worst children once they are out of earshot.
Catrina Usher
@Shannon - You have the wise, girl! It's a word. Don't get your panties in a bunch. And have you only been a tiny little area of Pinterest? This place is full of fuck on pins! @Reba .... You seriously scare me. Your "I'll pray for you" comments turned my stomach. As a Christian, don't you think that there are so many more things that God could help with? So many other people that could really use prayers? Like people whose children have cancer. Or people who can't afford to feed their children? Or children that are being abused? To throw out "I'll pray for you" as a passive aggressive attack on other people is so .... UNChristian. Blech.
Grace Johnston
I for one am sick of seeing the F word all over PInterest, and I'll stop following anyone who repins stuff like this. All you "nice" people who feel the need to splash the F word around to prove how "grown up" you are need to truly grow up. It's scary to think that some of you are parents.
Trina E
I think it's hilarious the amount of craziness going on here. My parents never taught me about sex, I learned at school when I was in the 4th grade, My parents cursed every now and then but I heard it the most when I was at school. I'm sure your children and grandchildren have learned this already. They seem to be learning it at younger ages each year. I know people who use the F word on a regular basis. I have lived with people who acted as if it was just another word. Honestly I would rather see the F word than 300 photos of belly bumps, alien-esque ultrasound pictures, your nasty placenta milkshake/casserole/paint. pictures of your gaping floppy "hoohoo" as you rocket little Jr. into this world and then the 300 pictures after that.
Joy Fedorak
@ Catrina, why is it when people say that it kind of feels like a curse?? you are so right why do they think " GOD" gives a F**K about S**T on Pinterest???
Teresa Owen
Wow, don't you ankle-hiders have some books to burn or something? Better get busy, I hear "Gone With The Wind" has the big ol' D word in it.
Joy Fedorak
@ Trina I seriously just fell off my chair laughing, and @ Grace you do know that people that never used the F word have raised people who rape and murder right? That should scare you more
MissWiggy
Seriously--if you don't like someone's pin, UNFOLLOW them, rather than request they accommodate you and your quest to live profanity-free(good luck with that on the internet). If you want someone to respect your likes and interests, do the same to them. Pinterest is about fun, not forcing your personal beliefs down people's throats. Geez.
Jamie Sims
You know, the other day someone re-pinned an image of a bloody fetus sticking out of a woman's abdomen the other day. Even though I didn't care for the image, instead of pitching a holier-than-thou ALL CAPS HISSY FIT, I simply unfollowed the Pinner and went on my merry way. No one gives a flying shit if you're offended, you don't have the RIGHT to not be offended. None of us is obligated to look out for you or your precious little snowflakes. Get. Over. Yourselves.
Krista Killman
Y'all need to put your big girl panties on and stop making this into such a big deal. I've seen way worse stuff on here. Its just a few words, that someone made and she reported it...chilllll out man.
Sharon Nugent
There's always a silver lining though... Whenever I come across a post that's giving the Neo-Victorian Uptight Women's Brigade an attack of the vapors, I always check out the boards of the people coming down in favor of freedom of expression. Found some amazing people that way. Plus, I learn new words and phrases like "Flounce fest" and "butthurt." Which is always good!
Julia S
I must thank ALL of you for literally making me laugh so uproariously that I have tears streaming down my face (Sam, Jennifer, and Trina most especially). It is so painfully simple: if you don't like certain words, then don't follow someone who posts words you don't like. Jeebus. All this about a four letter word? I wonder what other four letter words could possibly offend someone out on the interwebs: Love. Hate. Pray. Cats. Butt. Dumb. Clap. Dung. Shall I continue? FUNK YEAH!
Joy Fedorak
Praying for you Joy.... I know in my heart you are a good person.. Please know that I mean well... God is a good God.. be glad your children are healthy and happy.. it's not the same for everyone else... God bless and may he richly bless you and your family...Sent with Love, Reba"
This is what she wrote on my wall...she needs some SAVING...
Click here check it out.
Joy Fedorak
I have been reading these to my daughter while she is driving but she was laughing too hard so we had to quit, such fun.
Christina Locklear
I'm going to repin this just to piss everyone that is offended off. I find it hilarious!!!
Traci Thompson
If you are letting children view this site YOU are in the wrong. Period. In order to have an account on this site you are required to have a Twitter or Facebook account. You are not allowed to have a Facebook or Twitter account under the age of 13, therefore if you are under the age of 13 you should not be on this site. I have definitely seen much worse on here! I have 2 small children and while I wouldn't want them seeing this, I wouldn't let them on here unsupervised anyway. People need to lighten up. Not every second of every day is about our children. We are our own people too. We can be wonderful parents and act appropriately in front of them and still act in an adult manner when they aren't around. You can stop following the poster and think it makes a difference, but this drama just gave them more followers (me being one, just to spite all of you LOL)! And I'm repinning this, cause I am an adult and it's FUNNY!
Mindy Uitvlugt
WHOA! I have kids, and I still find it hilarious... There's things you show your kids, and things you don't. If you're worried about the kids, someone doesn't keep a tight enough "leash" on the internet =X Just sayin!
Sandra Turner
I wonder when people will start shouting "blasphemy!" when someone posts an OMG comment/post on pinterest... Feels a "Life Of Brian" moment coming on.
Tovah Steffen
For everyone who wants to have it removed or dictate what someone else can and can't say or post: It's called freedom of speech, fuckwads. And yes, I said fuck just so I can corrupt all your precious babiez. It's my master plan to destroy earth as we know it.
The Khaleesi
I would just like to say this has won the award for most epic pinterest conversation. Thanks guys I needed something to fucking entertain me. Oh and I am 28 and love my mother fucking Kindle. Oh and a mother of 2 who knows better than to let her small children read over her shoulder.
Ann DeLaiarro Sweck
Love this pin. I am printing it and putting it on my fridge. My kids know they can't swear til they're 18. This is EPIC.
Amelia Beck
Um, is anyone else wondering how FAST that toy car must have been traveling to get that kind of air?
Jenn Schaller
Ironic much? A few of the pot stirrers aka girls with their panties in a wad...actually HAVE pics of some ass cheekage with some panties up in a wad aka a thong..pinned. Pot meet Kettle. Kettle meet Pot. The end.
Jenn Schaller
...seriously.I think they do these things to just feel important,powerful, or just like to be trollish. idk
Kimberly Killingsworth
I am offended by all of the crock pot and Jesus stuff posted on here, but you don't hear me complaining.
Susan Cornell
My personal favorite was Sharon Nugent's "Neo-Victorian Uptight Women's Brigade." Hilarious. Some people seem to link Pinterest with wholesome arts and crafts, but Pinterest is for ANYTHING! I think the pic is funny, and I was raised Southern Primitive Baptist! I'm also a big believer in freedom of speech and "live and let live." I try not to force my way of life onto others because I don't want their's forced onto me. I will be teaching my three-year-old daughter to do the same, and if she should happen to disagree with someone's opinions, she will have every right to disagree, but she will not have the right to disrespect them for their differences.
Melissa Mays
@kimberly, lmao at being offended by crock pot and jesus stuff. twice ive laughed with regard to this pin. love it.
Danielle
I highly suggest people that are offended by this DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT look at my "things that make you LOL" board!
http://pinterest.com/p...
Jenni Marie
Good, grief. People are nuts. My kid hears the word "fuck" on a relatively regular basis. She also knows not to say it. It's pretty basic like that. Grown-ups get to say grown-up words, kids don't. And WTF are young kids doing on Pinterest? Did the momzillas/grannies ever explain THAT shit? Jeez. Not to mention the fact that kids start cussing around their peers as young as 12 and 13 sometimes. So your precious snowflakes are probably hearing all about fuck in its many forms at school.
Jeriann
Hilarious. I agree with Kimberly K up there, I'm way more offended by the pro-anorexia pics and the prosti-tot glamour shots, which these complainers probably file under "Stay healthy"and "Soooooo Cuuuuute." If pins like this start coming down to make more room for Tim Tebow and 10001 ways to tie ribbon, I'm gone.
Jenni Marie
I'm not into paisley, but that doesn't mean that others on here can't pin paisley shit.
Heather H
This is fucking hysterical. The picture, the comments...........just turned my night from shitty to well...less shitty!
Jess
There's nothing low class about mentally screaming "fuck yeah" as you watch a small child jump a ramp in an angry plastic car. NOTHING.
Susan Brinkley
If your kids don't already know the word fuck, they're in serious trouble when they hit the real world. Besides, if she had the vocabulary, that's exactly what would be going through that girl's head. Get a grip (and a sense of humor) people. Pintrest is not for censorship.
Kristian Shantelle
Uptight people are boring. Stick to searching for unicorns. Cross your fingers or say your prayers, lest you come across a unicorn telling you to go diddle yourself. And yeah, "flounce fest"... fucking awesome.
Himani
Awwww, if some of your special fucking snowflakes can't handle the 'F' word than MAYBE they shouldn't be on the computer unsupervised? Parenting fail.
Leah Gatewood
In this country where you can freely speak your mind people sure do have a problem with it, if you don't like it LOOK AWAY!! WHO the hell lets their 5 year old on pinterest anyways??
Stephanie Eley
I feel like we're getting trolled by some of the world's oldest pinterest users...
Anyway, welcome to the internet. It's clear you weren't given the handout, but things like this are everywhere. If this is offensive, I suggest you don't travel outside Pinterest.
Also, GO LITTLE KID, GO! You ride the hell out of that toy car, and you have fun doing!
Jamie R.
Any Pinterest picture that spawns a thread mentioning both STFU Parents and Regretsy is 100% awesome in my book.
Regina Hodge
I personally think this pin is hilarious. However, I can't repin it because my mother follows me and thinks the "f" word is appalling. She thinks pinterest shouldn't have the "offensive" language. I think words are just that...WORDS. This isn't violent, racist or hateful. By being SOOOOO offended by the "f" word in this picture, you miss out on the good-natured humor it offers. "Offensive, curse words" are often to emphasize feelings of expression, and often to intensify importance. To the moms...parental controls are possible. Freedom of speech is phenomenal. "Offensive posts" are debatable, depending upon who you ask. Perhaps YOU shouldn't use Pinterest if you're offended by a post, which has the OBVIOUS intention of amusement. :)
Regina Hodge
I meant that my mom thinks pinterest should have language editing controls...clearly, I disagree.
Adam Furtado
@ Shannon, I lOVED your first, original post. You took the words right out of my mouth. I have 2 young girls (4 and 1) while my 1yr old can't even speak let alone play on a computer my 4 year old can. However, it is my job as a parent to look out for the material they view. If I don't want them looking at it they won't. It is people like these sensor-nazis that have shaped our America (one that I have helped serve and protect) into a bunch of prude, boring, uptight people. And you make a god point, what about the posts of half naked girls showing their toned physique to inspire some over weight women to shed a few pounds. Should we take those down too because it may push your 7 year old granddaughter into the world of bulimia? Let's get real. For EVERYONE, who said, "if you don't like it or it offends you....just look away" I commend you.
For the others, Apparently the show, "What Would You Do? with John Quinones on ABC News" is a lot more popular than I thought.
Adam Furtado
@ April Bequette, I loved your comment, "I'm not into all the jesus quotes, but I don't bitch about it" I am so with you on this one.
Meghan O'Neill Currier
More upset that the parent of this child let home jump his car without a helmet, no one is focusing on that. Though the pic is obviously photoshopped in several areas so who knows.
All the pearl clutchers need to step away from the computer and try reading a book with their kids instead of letting them troll the Internet unsupervised.
Jesselyn Yanez
re-pinning just for the drama. the first time i said fuck was when i was 12, on accident. the first time one purpose was a year later when i was in jr high. kids say it because they think its "cool" to curse. they hear it from their parents, aunts, uncles, cousins, older siblings, the tv expecially the internet and i bet their friends say it too. its just no big deal unless you make it a big deal.
Robyn Franks
Pinterest etiquette Rule #1
Be Nice
Pinterest is a community of people. We know that tastes are personal, but be respectful in your comments and conversations.
FYI: This language is offensive. Go play on myspace.
brooke welty
Oh, neat. I wasn't aware that Pinterest was a pg-13 site and I'm only allowed to pin kid-friendly stuff. Cool! Wait, just kidding. I love this post, fuck yeah!
Rebecca Ginn
I love how the stupid mama drama of this pin has made it to www.stfuparentsblog.com . I've pinned this to my board and I DARE someone to threaten they will stop following me, I don't give a FUCK! I don't come on here to make followers, I come on here to look at pics for inspiration, creativity, and yes, HUMOR!
Gina Foster
OH MY...I THINK IT'S MORE IMPORTANT TO STOP...WORLD HUNGER, HOMELESSNESS, ANIMAL ABUSE,CHILD ABUSE, DOMESTIC VIOLENCE, NURSING HOME NEGLECT, WAR....AND DAMN IT I COULD GO ON AND ON!!!!

this fuckin' thread makes me wish I could 'like' the fuckin' comments here!!
Allison Bolduc
hehe, just repinned this for the simple facts that 1. It makes some ppl uncomfortable (hello, welcome to planet earth - a place where uncomfortable things happen) and 2. This thread is outta control hilarious!
Carol French
Greg...I'm thanking you for your service. I have lived through some of the things you see on your job.
I feel that those who need to express themselves with this kind of language, lacks the ability to speak intelligently.
Alyssa Dykes
Gee, how about parents watch what their children are doing? A five year old shouldn't be on any sites other than Disney and Nickelodeon. The internet can be a dangerous and inappropriate place; why not teach your children that now? Also, to whoever said that nothing shocks "young people" anymore, you're wrong. The comments on here shock me because the internet has never pretended to coddle children. That's what parental controls are for.
Joyce Caballero
Shouldn't parents be more worried about their teenagers having sex with or without protection or drinking and/or drinking and driving rather than a curse word?
Ashley Conn
I think it is a bit ridiculious to everyone that is sitting here trashing this lady for what she has posted on her board. If you dont like it then move on to sit her and basically say that her morals arent right because her post has the f-word on it is stupid. I have 3 kids and I am sorry but if you dont want your kids to be looking at stuff like this then why do they have a twitter or facebook account. That is what they have to sign up with and I think facebook is way worse than anything I have read on pinterest. People need to get a life unfollow her if you have a problem and then move on dont sit her and try to trash her. Grow up.
Sarah
so funny!!
hey guys lets keep it respectful of everyone, just because someone finds it offensive or does not find it offensive.
does not mean we should make fun or degrade anotherr person for disagreeing with our points of view.
Jennifer F
Wow, Greg, you look at that little kid in a toy car and see kiddie porn? As far as I can see, you are the only person in this entire threat that is sexualizing that child. Perhaps some therapy could help you with that.
Jennifer F
Yes, Greg, I know. I get it. You investigate child abuse. And that fact that you see this child in a sexual manner gives me major chills. Also, I took a little look at your page, and I have to say, the woman in the super revealing underwear? Nice touch!
Angel Klingenberg
not following people is not a threat to me. Get over it we should all be adults on here. Dont look at it if it isnt your cup of tea. Maybe I am offended by the skinny ass girls you guys post and want to be like. some of those are far too skinny and puts pressure on people to be that thin. give eating disorders. OFFENSIVE lol.
Jennifer F
Yep, sorry, still can't find that kid sexy. I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on this one.
Felicity Smith
Ladies - I think this post is adorable! Did the creator of it need to swear to make it any cuter - not really. I believe in a comment the comedian Lewis Black makes, "We are all adults and adults use adult words - don't tell me how to express myself!"
Kelcy McIntyre
@Greg B: You said "I find that assigning an adult phrase such as "Fuck Yeah" to a child who looks to be less than 1 years old almost promoting child abuse" "It's about adult sexualising children. Even if it's just adding a comment in a bubble as in the pic above, it's normalising sexual innuendo in kids and it doesn't need to happen. "
And the Making Mountains Out of Molehills Award goes to... you! Half the time when people say curse words, they do not mean it literally. When one says "What the fuck?" They aren't saying "What the sexual intercourse?" That doesn't make sense. Same goes when someone says "SHIT!" when they stub their toe. They aren't referring to anything as feces. Half the time people use curse words as a metaphorical spice to one's vocabulary. The picture above is an example of that. "Fuck, yeah" in this case (and most others) is not saying "Sex, yeah", rather it's used almost as an adjective or even non-sense word like "Oh, yeah", "Aw yeah", "Woo, yeah" because the toy car got some awesome air off that ramp (which could be rather unsafe... you aren't concerned about that?) and immediate reactions to exciting things aren't always PG-13 for some of us. Bottom line, "fuck" is not always a sexualyl related word and I don't think the pervs out there are spending any time on this picture because of the words, rather I think there are sadly much more worse pictures on the Internet they are getting their jollies off of. There are pictures on Pinterest with kids in makeup and personally I think that is sexualising children far more that this one (using NOT using the word in a sexual way) and I think MOST would agree with me here.
If you really are an officer that fights against child sexual abuse, first of all thank you. Secondly, I suggest you take some time off because you are seeing it everywhere including where it isn't and that's not good for your health or for being an effective officer in your line of work.
Andrea MacLeod
Awesome! I love the look on his face and the caption is exactly what I would be thinking. :)
Kimberly Killingsworth
Okay everyone, look at this picture. It is a picture of a toddler, in a cozy coupe, laughing hysterically. THEN AN ADULT, wrote "fuck yeah" and posted it on an ADULT website. I don't understand how this is harmful to children. It's just funny. No one is actually making the kid think/say "fuck yeah" It's all pretend, people. Just like the baby on Family Guy. It's just supposed to be funny FOR ADULTS!! If this is what you people think is wrong with the Internet then you have obviously never googled "brad pitt's penis" like I did when I was 12.
Dana Marie
Can I have the ppl's lives that have time to overanalyze the shit out of this fucking pin? Aw shit, I said fuck. Ah fuck there it goes again.
Lindsay Cantrell
I am in love with this pin for the comments alone. And now have a shit ton of awesome people to follow. There are some very crotchety uptight women around here that need to put on their big girl panties and get the fuck over themselves. It's a word, get over it and move on. Oh FUCK YEAH
Gina Foster
I THINK THEY JUST NEED TO GET RIDE OF THE PANTIES ALL TOGETHER AND COOL IT OFF OR AIR OUT FOR A WHILE!!!!!!! LOL!!!!
Kimberly Killingsworth
@Greg Oh no I think you've been hacked! I just looked at your pins and someone has pinned pictures of naked:half naked women on your boards. There is also a comment about someone needing a high five, to the face, with a chair. Since I know you dot have a since of humor then I know that must be taken literally, and I'm worried the person that pinned that is a abusive. Just letting you know.
Priyanka Gopal
Sometimes there are no substitutes for a word. Sometimes, you've just got to use it. Fuck, is one such extremely versatile word, that over time, has been used expansively. Simple, yes? And seriously, its only a matter of time before your kids/grandkids start using that word, just maybe not in front of you. So...... no porn, no abuse, no nothing..... its just a word. with all your emphasis on wrongness, i think you guys gave it more importance that it actually had. Wow.
Priyanka Gopal
Oh and comparitively, you will find the word fuck used in the sexual connotation pretty pretty rarely. Just sayin.
Kirshna Selchow
Has anyone seen the post with the kid shaking his fist that says "drew a picture of a horse. Made it to the fridge. FUCK YEAH". That's a good one too. Anyone know if there's drama on that pin?
@Schuyler Arnold-Potter Have you seen this drama? Woh. Read all the comments. epic winning.
Michelle Smith
It is just a WORD people if you uptight individuals would stop making it a point to say this is something more then a word then it would not be an issue...if the word fuck offends you do not say it simple as that.
Erin Cottrell
I gotta say, this picture is pretty funny. :) Lighten up! OH, and I love the comment about not being a "helicopter parent".
Penny Wyatt
And now I do not have to wonder why our children "pop out" with these nast words at adults. We are what we teach. It's disgusting.
Shannon
this may be the most EPIC drama llama flounce fest (@gina dezuzio)...i almost have a tear of nostalgia from reading it. so many of you amazingly hysterical bishes have busted out the drama llama vocabulary that it makes me happy. i love reading butthurt. let me say it again...butthurt. ZOMG...someone on the internetz is cussing, quick...call the internetz police. has anyone introduced pinterest to the concept of "anti-troll spray" or "troll b gone?" i'm thinking we have a case of people having some issues with ethnocentrism. the world is a huge, dynamic, and colorful place full of wonder, blessings, tragedy, mystery, and...wait for it...humor.
again...if you don't like it, don't look. please do not allow your children unsupervised internet time, especially not here. the internet is not full of ducks, bunnies, and unicorns that fart rainbows. there are bigger boogeymen on the information super highway than this one, widdle picture.
@Jenn Schaller can i just make you some cookies for looking up the ass cheekage? i mean really. you just radiate WIN.
@joy fedorak i have mad jealousy that i'm not one of your kids...:wub: you have so much WIN and wit crammed in one body that we're officially changing the definition of WIN to "see joy"...
Patti Royster
The f bomb is just becoming another common and acceptable word in our society. Is nothing special and precious anymore? Do we have no respect for what it really means to create a life and the joy we can find in that power? I appreciate great humor I just don't appreciate the f bomb being used as if it means nothing at all. Because it does.
Joy Fedorak
OMG @ Shannon I don't think I could love you more even if you had been extracted from my vagina. My son's last girlfriend said that the best part of their relationship was his mother!! But holy Hells bells this has been so f**king funny that it was a treat to get out of bed just to read all of the brilliant and not so brilliant rants!!!!
Shannon
@Joy Fedorak its been the best exhibition of drama.ever. in the history of the internet. *insert laughter with some not ladylike snorting* who knew that Pinterest could be even more amazing than it started out? on the even more upside, i'm now following some of the most fab bitches on the internet! :kisses:
Gina Foster
I JUST MADE A BOOB SCARF FOR MYSELF...NOW I AM MAKING MY HUSBAND A SCARF!!!!LOL!@#%$%%@!~#^^ AWESOME!!!!!!!!LOL!
Joy Fedorak
No spanking!!!! that is pure abuse!!!!, you can say what the shit you want!~! and I agree, it has opened a whole new world for me as well. I kept thing about some of this as I was trying to fall asleep last night but it kept making me laugh so I had to get up and read for a while, but nothing dirty bcs that would have kept me up too!
Shannon
:rofl: no dirty books for you. someone's 7 year old daughter across the interwebz may find them and read them...
Aoife Varian
OMG I'm new to pinterest, but if there's this much drama I will absolutely be staying! Fuck yeah!
Shannon
well, gina, dear if you only peed a little then we aren't doin' it right...we need to try harder...more profanity on the menu!
Joy Fedorak
Worse yet she may read them aloud to her mother who will understand them! then what the hell shape will her big girl panties be in? and by the way...I . am . getting . nothing . accomplished . and my sides hurt again.
Shannon
pshaw, joy...productivity is for people that don't use liberal amounts of profanity...and wit. i'm thinking the mom doesn't even own said BGPs...that's pure conjecture though. rofl
Joy Fedorak
Your prob right Shannon, she is no doubt on of the churchy ones that goes commando but wears a cute little hat. Oh it that not what you meant when you said she has none of those BGP
Traci Thompson
Greg, as someone who has been molested as a child, I find your comments asinine. Fuck Yeah! in this context is NOT sexualizing a child AT ALL (which IS what you said). It is an excited exclamation nothing more. And Patti, now FUCK is a "special" word that should be respected? Uh, whether referring to sex or not, FUCK is not a special word and has never been intended as such. Fucking and making love are NOT the same thing. Not even remotely.
Shannon
can we get an amen for sister @traci thompson? props and hugs for continued peace and healing.
MaryJane von Snicklefritz
holy fuck! ..reading this thread, I feel like I found my long lost tribe!
Marcia Current
Please do not use bad words on this site. Everyone does not use this word every other minute in their conversation. It shows a lack of intelligence on your part.
Joy Fedorak
@ Traci ((BIG HUGS)) @ brandlion- me toooooo, but some of them biches need some long time in the old sweat lodge with a sharp stick.
Courtney Hockett
I find it hilarious that people keep saying using curse words shows lack of intelligence. --Not that it really matters but the last iq test I took I scored a 147. Yup. Not only that, I curse. WHOA! Take that....... bitches! ;) lol
By the way Marcia, the fact that you think it's ok for you to decide what others can or cannot do with their Pinterest account (or any other public account for that matter) shows your lack of intelligence. If you want a site where people follow *your* rules, then create it, and moderate it.
Also, how many people who use this site have seen your pins and find them annoying, incorrect, and ridiculous but choose not to say anything. I see you've pinned things about God. --While I'm a Christian, I also am well aware there are other religions out there. So does that give others a right to tell you to not pin about God??
Grow up and let others be. They aren't harming you. It's a word. Focus on teaching your children acceptance, teach them about volunteering and helping those who need it worse than they do. Oh, and teach them about the US Constitution that you obviously haven't read in awhile.
Joy Fedorak
Could it be that a lot of "intelligent" people might even hid behind a "clean mouth" and a church pew then do some pretty horrid things to very nice little children?? The words a person uses does not make them GOOD or BAD its actions that do. I myself have never heard a priest say F**K.
Annika Laurea-Wood
I'm pretty sure I was thinking the same thing every time I was on a roller coaster as a kid ;) I grew up with a bunch of mostly Texan military men who were cursing champs. My Irish mom swore well too. Like I said before, if you don't like it, look at something else. Don't throw a hissy about it.
Shannon
fuck yeah...*ahem* i mean i concur with the statement that @courtney hockett recently iterated with cogent deliberation. after ruminating on the conceptual underpinnings of the aforementioned debate, i have to continue my previously held belief that the word fuck is an efficacious component of a well rounded vocabulary. it is a term that is multi-functional in terms of part of speech and emotional/intellectual conveyance. what more efficacious word is there in our esteemed language...
Shannon
@brandilion ...inorite? who knew there were so many of us social deviants out here degrading the internet with our insane profanity...
Courtney Hockett
lol@Shannon. I have to stop checking this as I continue to become annoyed at so many folks.
Shannon
oh, my darling @courtney hockett...then you simply must read the butthurt report form http://www.scribd.com/...
Shannon
but...but...@brandelion can't we dictate to everyone on the internetz that they have to do things OUR way? *stomps feet, turns, and frips off in a flounce fest party of one*
MaryJane von Snicklefritz
I don't know WHY I continue to be amazed at people thinking they can enter a public forum on the INTERNET and expect it to be G rated or completely non-offensive!! EVERYONE is offended by SOMETHING! why would anyone expect the world to cater to THEIR personal preferences?? that would seem pretty unreasonable..not to mention IMPOSSIBLE..we can't ALL be happy with EVERYTHING all of the time! if you don't want to see any profanity or anything offensive to YOU why not create your own space and monitor it how YOU see fit?! ...otherwise..there are a bajillion other pins out there..move along!
Danielle
OMG! This is still going? I am going to re-pin this just for the sake of following the rest of these comments.
I don't have anything low-class to add other than Fuck is the most diverse work in the English language. I suggest you-tubing "The History of the word Fuck" Enjoy!! :)
Danielle
@Joy Fedorak- You've never heard a priest say fuck? I suggest you invite one over for dinner and serve red wine. My husband's family is Catholic and is very close with some of the priests at a particular church. Not only are they drunks, they have some of the worst "potty mouths" I've ever heard!
MaryJane von Snicklefritz
@Shannon ~ if only! ...and what a beautiful world it would be..if EVERYONE would do exactly what I say!!
Shannon
*submits vote for brandelion to head the tribe of the profane bitches on the internetz* lol...see, now you get your way!
MaryJane von Snicklefritz
WOOT! ...I'mma be QUEEN of the profane bitches society (internetz chapter)!! hellz...err..I mean fuck...FUCK YEAH!! ...when I am queen the FUCK will flow freely throughout the land! ..of course I mean that in the absolute least offensive way possible!!
Shannon
watch it @Greg B ...you might hurt yourself...keep laughing though. laughter is a proverbial balm of the soul. perhaps using profanity is immature, but some of us find it quite cathartic. the world is a messy, tragic place...if laughter is to be found we should celebrate it.
Joy Fedorak
I just checked out the butthurt site and feel there are many people that need to be directed to this site...http://www.scribd.com/doc/7771818/Butt-Hurt-Report-Form
Kim Oliver
a little history here, the word fuck is actually am acronym that stands for "fortification under consent of the king". back in medieval times, the royals had 'courts' and if a man and woman in said court wanted to have sex with another, they had to get the consent of the king....lol now as far as the picture and whats written on it, i'll admit that i was for a half second somewhat taken aback because simply this is pinterest, and i didnt expect it, but after that 1/2 a second passed, i was laughing so hard! everyone needs to lighten up and i agree with everyone above who believes in hands on parenting. you cant complain about what your children see or hear if you're not overseeing their activities. pin. on. my. fellow. pinners.
Jo Carroll
As I was scrolling along I saw this and found it offensive. Not because of my children, who are adults, but because of what I don't like to see. Is there some way to delete offensive sights so it won't keep coming up when I'm looking around? I love pinterest but since some people have no consideration for what others might find offensive I would like to just be able to not see this type of thing.
Chelsea Kasper
I was shocked to see how many people are offended by this picture. Usually I don't get involved in these kinds of disputes, but I feel like both sides have valid arguments, but I think that in the end, to those of you who say that this is inappropriate, and that your children could be viewing this, I have to stop you there - as a parent, it is YOUR responsibility to restrict what your children do and do not have access to. It's the 21st century, and you need to realize that even the cleanest sites ALWAYS can spur up what you deem as inappropriate material for your kids. If you don't want your kids to be exposed to cursing, don't allow them to use the internet. Period. The internet will ALWAYS, I repeat, ALWAYS find a way to affect your kids one way or the other. And on sites like pinterest, stumble-upon, facebook, twitter, where there are few restrictions on what can/cannot be posted, it is very likely to encounter "inappropriate" material. You don't have the right to criticize what you deem the irresponsibility of others when in fact, you should be the one taking responsibility for what your children have access to. But you can't shelter your kids forever, they're going to see and hear things you don't want them to. It's on you to teach them how THEY should conduct themselves. Rant - terminate.
Penny Wyatt
You will all bow before the same God I do to get into heaven. It really has nothing much to do with your children getting on here and reading it. It has everything to do with how low this nation has sank on its moral and in good taste.
Sandra Turner
Penny, your statement presupposes that we all do believe in the same god or in any god at all for that matter. I'm not sure I'll sign up to the club, if the boss can't cope with someone saying fuck or shit every now and then.
Teresa Owen
This reminds me so much of the Monty Python movie with the witch hunt. ~slow clap~ Well done. Well done.
Sandra Turner
PS: You might want to check your style board for things that undermine moral, Penny - all that stuff about physical appearance ("butt & legs", female fitness, detox etc etc)... Tut tut...
Gina Foster
DOES ANYONE USE SPELL CHECK BEFORE THEY PRESS....POST COMMENT...I'M JUST SAYIN'...LOL!!!!
Kelcy McIntyre
@Penny Wyatt, some might find your "My Style" pinboard inappropriate with some of the rear end pictures and such. In addition to that, I love that someone in clown makeup is talking about the nation's lowered "good taste".
Jennifer Kimball
You can't have it both ways. Either God designed everything and has a plan for everyone...including the use of the word "Fuck" or he/she/it doesn't, and it doesn't matter. For heaven's sake. Words change meanings frequently. Are you "Happy and Gay" like you were in the 40's? Probably not. "Fuck" isn't as offensive as it used to be. If it is to YOU, congratulations. Consider yourself pure as the driven white snow, and move the fuck away from your computer. I personally don't like how common tattoos have become...but I don't gasp and yell "think of the children!" whenever I see tattooed people. (Honestly, I just giggle to myself that someday, when all these tattooed folk turn 65 or so, and their skin begins to sag and the ink blurs and fades..we're gonna have a nation of Avatar people. Fuck yea! I think I'll brush up on my Naa'vi while I'm at it. Do you think they have a word for "Fuck?"
Cindi Lash-Tripken
OMG - thought for a minute I was on Facebook - LIGHTEN up, read the first amendment and exercise your right to NOT to view what you choose not to. This was hysterical - kids and teens need to be on a more appropriate sight- This is not kid-friendly-DUH!!!
Leisa Swan
I have had the worse week, and this pic was so funny and I needed to laugh, and laugh I have at all the comments. Love it!!!
Olive DeVille
This is epic. I am not at all surprised by the Morality Police; I use the word FUCK precisely to annoy them. If you're bothered by that word, I would like to ask you to kindly NOT follow my boards. I don't need The Morality Police running around my awesome boards, because quite frankly, you don't deserve to witness the awesome that is me. Oh, and @Jennifer Kimball, while I appreciate where your post started, I can't help but feel you aren't much different from The Uptight Women's brigade. I am extremely heavily tattooed, as are most people I know, and if you really think you blank canvases are going to be the ones laughing when we're 65, think again. I plan on laughing my ass off at all the "safe" people, who sit around thinking about the things they didn't do in their youth. I suppose, at least, we'll all be laughing. As we all should at this post. ♥
Cathy Pitre
@Kimberly Killingsworth, you are so right, the crock potting has gotten out of control! LOL But if I see a recipe I like then, FUCK YEAH! I'm gonna try it!!!
Nancy Adams
There comes a point when people should just grow up. It's so unattractive to be the "rebel" when you're not a teemaher amymote.
Jennifer Kimball
@Michelle Adams: I suppose I can see how you would think that, but although I am a 40 year old mother, I am rather far from the uptight women's brigade. Not liking something and being offended by it are two very different things. I sort of feel about tattoos the way I feel about broccoli. It's there, some people like it, and I really really don't. Doesn't bother me in the slightest that my teenage obsession with Wham! won't be following me into my 70's..I have scrapbooks and memories to remind me of my youth. :) Plus, the bonus that I can apply at any job and not have to worry about wearing long sleeves or buying expensive makeup to cover the art, offensive or not, on my body. Like I said in my original post..not everybody likes every thing, and that's fucking okay. Wheeee!
Olive DeVille
@Jennifer Absolutely, and I really meant no disrespect in that. To each their own. I love that my childhood obsession with Wham! is blazed on me forever (and it really is; I love that you said that. Perhaps we're more alike than you think :) Cheers!
Stacy Coleman
As a respected adult, working in a respected position with kids..... when I was a teenager, guess what....I said the F-word! GASP. I did not grow up with the internet, I did not grow up with parents that didn't parent me, but I did grow up with parents that felt expressing yourself was important. Although they did not agree with some of my actions and words, and boy did they let me know when, I can take humor in this post, I thank you for posting it. For parents that are all up in arms about it, use it as a teaching tool for your kids....or don't go to websites that are not directed at kids.
Samantha Foley- Strukel
I respect the opinions of those who are deeply offended however, we are a country that has the freedom to express ourselves. It's not that serious, it was a joke. Im sure your children and grandchildren have heard and probably have said worse.
Sarah Parent
I think its hilarious and why would you give your 7 year old access to the internet alone? This is not the most inappropriate thing on Pintrest. You don't have to like it but get the fuck over it.
Joy Fedorak
@ Sarah...I so wish there was a "LIKE" button!!! @ Stacy---same---- OK as for the tattoos...I told my daughters that I had almost gotten a strawberry tattooed on the side of my breast and my oldest daughter said " well that would have been ok bcs now it could pass as a chili pepper " this was in a crowd of about 50 friends and family members...lets just say 10 years later this conversation still gets repeated when the big girl drinks come out!
Gina Foster
I WONDER HOW LONG WE CAN KEEP THIS GOING....THIS HAS BEEN THE HIGHLIGHT OF MY DAYS!!!!!LOL!!!!!
Joy Fedorak
@ Gina...MMMMMEEEEEE TTTTOOOO.I want (most) everyone to come to my house for Christmas...
Gina Foster
OK...THEN I GET EVERYONE FOR NEW YEARS EVE...A PARTY TO REMEMBER!!!!!HAHAHAH LOL!!!!!!!!
Joy Fedorak
@ Gina, do we need some BGP for that one??? I will start packing. How do we let the one that are not invited know??? Its kind of like hmmmm an uninvitation???
Gina Foster
MAYBE WE DO WANT THEM THERE...IT'S BEEN VERY ENTERTAINING THUS FAR....BAHAHAHAHHA LOL!!!!!!!
Shannon
@Joy Fedorak...alas, my darling, graduate school finals week beckons, and i cannot resist that siren's call. :sigh: i'd rather be here with you stirring this ridiculously amazing pot of incredible drama over profanity. you are infinitely more fun than a final paper on school finance...:kisses:
Joy Fedorak
@ Gina, You are BRILLIANT, THEN WHEN WE TIRE OF THEM WE CAN PACK THEM UP AND SEND TO A "flounce Fest"
Joy Fedorak
@ Shannon, perhaps Northern Canada about 500 miles straight north of me, we seem to have quite a few needy souls that require less booze and more "flounce" in their lives... I would be interesting to see who wins????
Angela Bazemore-Tallman
Damn this conversation went from posting the word fuck with a child to kiddie porn to idk lol...i love the pic and i so re pinned it...i really do think people need to get a life and move on with it...its posted as to all the other subjects that were mentioned lol...have a great day/night everyone...I LOVE THE PIC!!!!
Priyanka Gopal
I am pretty sad right now that the prudes have properly shut up :| is this the beginning of the end of some classy entertainment? Wheres the next controversial pin?!?!?!
Shannon
@joy fedorak...i think that's a great idea! we can rename a chunk of barren geography "flounce city"...we can carry around a red stamp that says EXILED for direct forehead contact! @priyanka gopal *sigh* alas, i think it is the end.
Joy Fedorak
@ Priyanka & @ Shannon sad to see the end but so love the idea of "Flounce City" and the brilliant idea of the stamp!!!
Janet Planet
Oh man, this comment thread is hilarious!! I think some people do not understand how pinterest works. Just because someone pinned it doesn't mean they created it. And if you don't like what the pin is, you can just keep scrolling. Lastly, it is so annoying when people want things to be "clean" because their kids might see it....guess what, the rest of the world does not revolve around you and your children!
Joy Fedorak
@ Janet you are so right and on top of that it was very well said, some people have a very misplaced, inflated sense of importance???
Michelle Foster
Oh for goodness sake don't look at it if it bothers you so much. There is inappropriate stuff all over the internet and the tv and everywhere. Get a grip people.
Destiny-Dawn Boone
I love the picture, but think the word is very inappropriate. We should keep this site clean so that if our little ones stumble upon it, they will not learn words like this. Very disappointed to see this on here.
Joy Fedorak
I miss you girls and all the fun last weekend...I think we will have to have a " NO Flounce Fest"
Janet Planet
Destiny, here's a better idea. Leave adult sites for adults and monitor your children's internet usage. Again, it is not other adults' responsibility to keep things G-rated because you chose to have children.
If you think the internet is the primary place where kids are learning cuss words, you are sadly mistaken.
Joy Fedorak
You are welcome, this was one of my highlights of 2011....flounce fest??? I love it!!! will never forget that one
@Shannon, hope your exams went well.x
Courtney Wilson
oh my god. Hilarious. I wish I could repost this but I would get yelled at for the language.
Christy Welch
OMG, they better not let SOPA and PIPA pass. This flounce fest is too awesome to be censored. Also @Danielle, my priest has a potty mouth too. I asked him about it and his response was, "Who the hell cares, it's just a damn word."
Brooke Kelty
If you don't want to see it....moooove on. If you don't want your kids to see it.....Don't allow them on this site. It's pretty simple. Censorship is ridiculous and limits freedoms. There are worse things in this world than FUCK....war, poverty, ignorance, hate, rape, torture, spitting on side walks....get real and get over it.
Adam Danielski
Came for the picture - stayed and read Joy and Gina's random conversation not related to this post.
Tristan le Piston
Can the offended pinners please fill out the appropriate form? Thanks! http://pinterest.com/pin/22...
Neilson Spencer
Why should I have to worry about what a concerned "parent" deems inappropriate for me - or anyone else - to post on the Internet? It's my Internet too damnit! If you don't like it, and don't want to see it: take a hint from Star Wars - "Move along, move along". Or are you children not allowed to watch that either because it's in some way a form of witchcraft? I am so tired of being surrounded by Low Hanging Fruit! Dessert First! Dessert First!
Genevieve Becker
People who are worried about a one little curse word on a cute little people should not be on the internets. Go read the bible or something.
Courtney Wilson
I think those who fill out that form are part of the problem. You do not have the right to decide what I see. It's not pornographic, and the F word is what makes it hilarious. I personally do not say it, but that doesn't mean I don't think it :) First, your 4 year old can't read, and if they could, they wouldn't know what it means. I can guarantee your teens have heard it at school or even say it themselves around friends. Get over yourself and stop ruining the fun for the rest of us.

@David Rosenberg — LOL. My thoughts EXACTLY! ;)
And, to everyone throwing a hissy fit: WELCOME TO THE INTERNET. It's get a LOT WORSE than this.

The thing about the word FUCK is not that it is a term meaning having sex. It's the fact that people find it offensive. These people probably have never asked themselves why this word is offensive to them; indoctrination is often the only reason they find it offensive. They were raised to think it was a BAD WORD. But why? Most people won't have sound reasoning to back it up. Removing FUCK from your vocabulary won't improve your life in any way other than the fact that you're going to keep other indoctrinated people from getting upset.
Where are your brains, guys?

I'm on pinterest and I've never seen a curse word before! Or the rest of the internet! Waaaaaaah!
Claudette Cruz-McCubbin
This is exactly why I don't come to Pinterest anymore. That holier than thou attitude of needing the smelling salts at the sight of a curse word. Besides, evidently they are a lot out of it when they don't know that "Fuck Yeah" is prettymuch a meme and a trend in tumblr titles and other sites.

Hi everyone! I was looking for a stick to shove really far up my ass so I can tell everyone else what to do. Can someone recommend a shop on Etsy that sell Ass Sticks?
Carter McLaughlin
I'd just like to point out that there are only 2 guys in this entire post.. well, now 3.

I'm repinning this. This is hilarious and kids shouldnt be on the internet unsupervised any damn ways!
Jason Northcutt
Fuck..oh crap I said fuck again...damit I said fuck again. fucked fucked said the wobbling duck.
Melanie Turner
Maybe it's just me but if you don't like it, as with anything else in life, just don't look at it...I hardly think it's worth all this craziness.

http://www.youtube.com/watc... Monty Python and the Definition of Fuck. One of the funniest things out there.

Its not the fact that we can say the F word but the fact Pinterest specifies that we keep it clean. So keep it clean! I can string together profanities better than anyone on here, trust me, but I keep it clean. Savvy?

If you've ever read The Catcher In The Rye, you'll know that it's impossible to protect children from (and rub out) all the "fuck you"s in the world. This is free speech. You have the right to disagree and we have the right to say it. Don't like it, don't like/repin it.

I THINK THIS HAS GOTTEN THE MOST FEED BACK ON PINTEREST THAN ANYTHING ELSE....YEAH US!!!!! FUCK YEAAH!!!!!!!
Theresa Bartholomew
I just wanted to say I love this picture, it made me laugh and by no means did I take offense to this. Also, I wasn't worried about my kid seeing this because I supervisor him if he is on the internet.
Becky Chase-Samuelson
I love this picture!! My 8 year old daughter saw it over my shoulder and all she had to say was "that looks like fun!!"
Alicia Lee
This is fantastic. Preparation H must have sponsored this, as indicated by all the butt hurt crying.
Joy Fedorak
LMFAO...seriously, when ever I fell down in the dumps I just reread this post and suddenly I am happy, and am so glad there are more proper nutters out there than there are "flouncers"
Shannon
@Joy Fedorak i consider it an absolute honor to be considered a "proper nutter" by an amazing wit like you...just sayin'. you go above and beyond the call!
Joy Fedorak
@Shannon one thing I have to admit...I GOT A KINDLE FOR CHRISTMAS AND I LOVE IT...keep checking myself in the mirror for some flounce...decided to only read while going commando no matter where i am... figure that should keep the "flounce" at bay!!
Hans Mancia
This is is why the older generation shouldn't be allowed on the Internet, we don't want you having a heart attack every time someone wants to have a laugh

How can you give so much importance to a joke? You get things out of context, if you let your child get into these pages is only the responsibility of their parents. Please keep the freedom of expression.
anya
wow... i want to laugh at how ridiculous you all are arguing over all this but it's not even funny. it's true that you can just unfollow people if they pin something that makes you uncomfortable, but didn't any of you think for a second that you are smothering THOSE people's right to free speech? it's not guaranteed to change absolutely anything but of you don't want to see curse words plastered over everything needlessly on a site (which i thought was for mature adults right?), you should be able to say something without getting totally ripped on. also this picture was totally unfunny and if you're all just tittering because there's a swear word next to a little girl wow are you sure you're all 13+? i'm 17 and above this. peace x
Shannon
lol...peanut gallery...lol. fwiw, anya, i think that's a boy. the tittering (great word, btw) is for the contextual depiction of someone doing something a little dangerous that is amazingly fun that liberates the soul from the confines of the mundane. not exactly a flounce fest...more like a celebration of life. just sayin'.
anya
@Shannon hmm you might be right, i can't really tell if it's a boy or a girl looking more closely, it's fairly ambiguous. no i understand what you are saying perfectly, my point was more the picture was nice enough without the ugly big 'f yeah' over the top. it seemed un-necessary and totally spoiled it for me. (i'm not particularly against swearing but i do find it a little gross using the f word in the context of a picture of a little child. i get the 'irony' it just does nothing for me) i worded it badly but it was more that i felt the picture wasn't funny enough to warrant all the lolz and "funniest picture ever"s in the comments, not that it was really so unfunny in itself. i'm resisting the urge to end this with "just sayin'."

TIL people sometimes type bad words on the Internet. Why can't this kind of filth be made illegal, like Iran?
Mike Morkes
I'm intrigued by the idea that there are parents out there who actually think their teenagers have never seen, much less uttered, the word, "fuck." Naive much?

Could you keep the language clean? Thanks.
