   A 7 year old and a 4 year old are upstairs in their bedroom. "You know   
   what?", says the 7 year old, "I think it's about time we start   
   swearing." The 4 year old nods his head in approval. "When we go   
   downstairs for breakfast I'm gonna swear first, then you swear after me,   
   ok?" "Ok", the 4 year old agrees with enthusiasm. The mother walks into   
   the kitchen and asks the 7 year old what he wants for breakfast. "Oh,   
   shit mum, I guess I'll have some Coco Pops" WHACK!!  He flies out of his   
   chair, tumbles across the kitchen floor, gets up, and runs upstairs   
   crying his eyes out. She looks at the 4 year old and asks with a stern   
   voice, "And what do YOU want for breakfast, young man?!  "I don't know,"   
   he blubbers, "but you can bet your fuckin' arse it won't be Coco Pops."
