Swearing where it doesn’t @!$#ing belong

He Lives tells of a recent incident where a racing driver swore on live television after a crash - when he had been praying on live television a minute before. Both were picked up by an in-car cam.

Of course, there is a YouTube vid of both. But that goes without saying, doesn’t it?

Speaking of inappropriate swearing, the 80s Halloween special “Garfield In Disguise” (or “Garfield’s Halloween Adventure”, depending on where you live) contains what sounds awfully like an F-bomb.

You can (on YouTube, naturally) watch the entire thing in three installments: #1, #2, #3. The disputed swearing is in the third installment almost 3 minutes in.

I think Garfield is maybe saying the characters name. I don’t remember the whole thing. Is it ‘rust bucket’ or something? I vaguely remember laughing pretty hard when I thought I heard what I heard at the age of 8 or 9, the first time I saw this.

There’s a Linkin Park remix - can’t remember the song - when you read the lyrics they’re saying something innocent but I’d bet $100 they’ve edited them to sound like that f-bomb. (I think it’s “Every time I fall and get hurt” converted to “Everytime I bleeeeeeeeep-in’ get hurt”)

I never picked up on this as a child despite watching it multiple times, but I can’t figure out what Garfield is actually saying!

It’s a pretty good 30 minutes of TV though, particularly the scaredy-cat song and the undead pirates.

There are so many songs with ambiguous swearing or no swearing … so many …
