Dip What?

Some of you may be wondering why I have this offensive sign on my website- I think it is funny.

They repaired the sign, and someone drew a picture of poop instead of writing the actual word, I am hoping to capture an image of that one as well.

You remember my definition of Ship High In Transit- where the word S.H.I.T actually came from?- well, if you do, then you will see that this is not really a bad word at all- and who is to say what word is bad? It is just a word afterall- there doesn't seem to be a way to label the degree of offensiveness unless it is offensive to a certain person. It is definitely not deragatory toward any one group- it isn't a racist or stereotypical term. So why is it considered bad? I looked it up on the internet and found that I am not the first to ask this question. I just wish I knew how words became profane.

Hopefully I didn't offend anyone with this post, if I did, I really don't give a... well, you know.
