Re: Why The %&@#* Is Punctuation So +@$! Violent?!
I always wonder what expletives other people use to fill in the blanks, as in the title of this blog entry. As you read the title, what words does your brain put in place of the punctuation? (Think of this as the Mad-lib you always wanted to do as a kid.)

For me it was "fuck" and "fucking." I guess I lack imagination.
