Mitch Albom: potty mouth
i thought this was funny. i was reading a Mitch Albom article about the Pistons the other day, and he was describing Antonio McDyess (who played a playoff game with a broken nose) as "stuffed-up, puffed-up, and fed-up". the cadence of that phrase leads me to expect the last item to somewhat rhyme with the previous two. so when i read it the first time, in my mind it was "stuffed-up, puffed-up, and effed-up". as in f'ed-up. as in f***ed-up. it's funnier when you picture Mitch Albom writing this, he who sounds like he's trying to write to an audience that spans from baby boomers to 2nd graders. i wish Mitch Albom had been one of my elemetary school teachers. now THAT would be f'ed-up.
