What am I *beep* saying?!?

I appreciate censoring.  I would much rather hear the *beep* and see the blurry image than hear the actual words and see what is behind the blurry box.  However, I don't like it when I can't hear and see what is happening in the show.

I try to avoid shows with censoring altogether.  It has somewhat of an opposite affect on me.  My mind automatically fills the blanks.  Does yours?

Use this as an example:

When I tried to get my *beep* daughter to wear her *beep*-*beep* school clothes, she threw a *beep* fit and would not stop crying.  In my anger I told her, "Listen, *beep*, if you don't like the *beep* clothes, you don't get to keep *beep*."   The little *beep* agreed!  I had her get the *beep* out of here to a *beep* neighbor.  Now, our neighbor is wearing the *beep* that I  *beep* put together.  

This is what I really wrote:

When I tried to get my oldest daughter to wear her brand-new school clothes, she threw a horrible fit and would not stop crying.  In my anger, I told her, "Listen, (child's name), if you don't like the new clothes, you don't get to keep them."  The little giver agreed!  I had her get the clothes out of here to a little neighbor.  Now, our neighbor is wearing the outfit that I painstakingly put together.

Isn't that awful?  I might not be hearing the words, but I am THINKING them!

What did you think I was *beep* saying? (really) Please censor your own *beep*-*beep* comments! (thought-provoking)
