The Most Versatile Word in the English Language

There are many words in the English language that can have multiple meanings, but none are more versatile than that little four letter word, SHIT.

Consider the following:

  • You can get shit-faced, Be shit-out-of-luck, Or have shit for brains.
  • With a little effort, you can get your shit together, find a place for your shit, or be asked to shit or get off the pot.
  • You can smoke shit, buy shit, sell shit, lose shit, find shit, forget shit, and tell others to eat shit.
  • Some people know their shit, while others can't tell the difference between shit and shineola.
  • There are lucky shits, dumb shits, and crazy shits. There is bull shit, horse shit, and chicken shit.
  • You can throw shit, sling shit, catch shit, shoot the shit, or duck when the shit hits the fan.
  • You can give a shit or serve shit on a shingle.
  • You can find yourself in deep shit or be happier than a pig in shit.
  • Some days are colder than shit, some days are hotter than shit, and some days are just plain shitty.
  • When you're sick, you can feel like shit, look like shit, smell like shit, and sound like shit.
  • You can also sound like you're full of shit.
  • You can have too much shit, not enough shit, the right shit, the wrong shit or a lot of weird shit.
  • You can carry shit, have a mountain of shit, or find yourself up shit creek without a paddle.
  • Sometimes everything you touch turns to shit and other times you fall in a bucket of shit and come out smelling like a rose.

When you stop to consider all the facts, it's the basic building block of the English language.

And remember, once you know your shit, you don't need to know anything else!!

Well Shit, it's time for me to go. Just wanted you to know that I do give a shit and hope you had a nice day, without! a bunch of shit. But, if you happened to catch a load of shit from some shit-head for reading this shit.. well, Shit Happens!!!

Pass this shit on to your friends, because if you don't, you'll have shitty luck for 7 years!

And if you believe that, you're dumber than shit!

Re: The Most Versatile Word in the English Language
I have had this discussion with many people in my 32 years & i have to disagree with you on this one. It is a little 4 letter word, but it is fuck, not shit. in all of the examples you have listed above, the instances are either nouns or verbs. Whereas, fuck can be a noun, verb, adjective, adverb, conjunction, interjection (shit can also be in that category). Not to mention that one can use fuck multiple times in the same sentences as different parts of speech & it be ok. you could not say "where the shit were you shitting?", but to say "where the fuck were you fucking?" would be ok.......

Maybe true, but nobody has ever been fuck-faced, or fuck-outta-luck (as amusing as it is that it rhymes)

Re: The Most Versatile Word in the English Language
maybe not completely true. those who were caught in the act of cheating on someone may have been fuck-outta-luck. or would that just be fucking outta luck?.... and i have heard & used the term "fuckface" to describe a person (have you not?). so, would that not entail that that person was being fuckfaced at that moment? as opposed to face-fucked....
