SUCKS TO BE reading a %&!@#! library book in Columbia, Tennessee

censorship%&!@#!

I mean really. Double %&!@#!

We’re sitting here reading our borrowed copy of “Catcher in the Rye” and some %&!5%^#!! crossed out all the good words.  The only reason we were reading the %&!@#! book in the first place was to see words like $!$@!! and *#*@!!@#$!. But no. They’re all crossed out. In blue %&!@#! ink.

Apparently, the moral cleansing of Columbia is well underway. Some %&!@#! has attacked some 100 books so far, leaving readers to only imagine what horrible %&!@#! profanity the author had scribbled on the page.

Here’s an idea, you %&!@#! Puritan. Highlight the words, so they’re easier for us to find. We like a good %&!@#! f-bomb as much as the next guy. So, help us out.  Because you’re making life really sucky for every school kid looking to see a “shit,” an “asshole” or a “fuck” in print. Oops. Sorry. You might want to get our your blue marker now.
