It’s a thing of beauty, I tell ya…

[Hazel Meade]

Can we get a comparison to The Wire?

[John C. Randolph]

Man, somebody did a lot of work editing that. Bravo.

[the innominate one]

in a similar vein

[BobDobalina]

You could edit Obama’s Press Conference, and achieve the same effect without swear words.

15 straight minutes of “Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…Uh…”

[Elemenope]

I just saw this a couple of hours ago. Hilarious; the S.O. and I just sort of sat there transfixed.

Yeah, Obama needs to get his uh’s under control when pausing.

[anarch]

I’m so glad we had this little chat.

[Matthew]

To just edit every swear word in the Sopranos into one montage is just kind of stupid.

[Sopranobot]

Matthew is begging to be cussed out, I just know it.

[Cultural critic]

Who knew the cast of that show was reading Balko continuously?

[Episiarch]

MADTV did the exact inversion of this video.

Soprano

Nah, I’ve just got a stick up my ass today.

[Warren]

So What? No fucking Ziti now?

[Boston]

I like the Lebowski Version

[The Wine Commonsewer (you can]

First time I haven’t suffered terminal depression after reading a Balko post.

HooooRaaaaaaaaayyyyyyy!

[Paul]

Why?

[James Ard]

The needless cursing is one reason I never watched the Sopranos. Obama’s pauses are obviously necessary so that Greg Craig can feed him the answers. 4 years of watching this guy is going to leave me hairless.

[hamilton]

Golly.

[ed]

Obama uses a teleprompter when talking to his wife.

[David (not that one)]

Someone should do a version for Deadwood. Now there’s some good cussing.

[Curious George]

So this is where Michelle learned to give a speech. Four years of her is going to make me a confirmed drinker.

[R C Dean]

The needless cursing is one reason I never watched the Sopranos.

Then watch it on A&E – the cursing is dubbed over.

I found the profanity appropriate in the Sopranos, though. I figure its how those guys probably really talk.

In Deadwood, for some reason, I found it anachronistic and jarring.

[Russ 2000]

In Deadwood, for some reason, I found it anachronistic and jarring.

The intent was to be jarring, like the west itself. But if the swearing had been of its time, it wouldn’t have been jarring to modern audiences. Ya cocksucker.

[Neu Mejican]

Impressively restricted and unimaginative cursing vocabulary.

[Isaac Bartram]

I’m not entirely sure how anachronistic the swearing in Deadwood is.

Clearly, the language evolves over time, but surely these words were not invented yesterday. I can’t remember where but i seem to recall reading something from the late 1700s that had swearwords that would have been perfectly familiar today.

And I’m fairly sure that the acts they describe were the staples of any good 1870s whorehouse.

[Isaac Bartram]

Not that I was ever in an 1870s whorehouse, mind you.

[Bob A]

This is such bullshit!
