Christmas greetings to all my family, friends, colleagues, admirers, competitors and enemies.
Bad language is always a bit of fun when you’re relaxing with friends, which is why I thought you’d enjoy this. Steven Pinker uses the furore over Bono’s acceptance speech at the Golden Globes (“This is f—ing brilliant!”) to deliver a scholarly but engrossing presentation on swearing. Everything you wanted to know here to improve and polish your bad language.
We’re on on hols now, so cool Yule to you all.
