• Listening to a folk punk song that uses the word fuck to great effect on Spotify yesterday, wondering why the fuck the line ‘If you fuck up I will still be your friend’ reads ‘If you f up’.

    I just don’t get it. Fuck is a valid, if vulgar, part of the common English lexicon. It serves a purpose.

      Also folk punk is supposed to be rough. It’s gonna curse. It’s gonna have drugs. And it’s gonna ask you how we’re supposed to fucking live without being high all the damn time. Clean folk punk is just political theory harshly sang and accompanied with banjo
