The new Canadian Press Caps and Spelling Guide, released today, has added a word in between FTP and Fudgsicle. That's right, fuck has finally got it self enough public acceptance to be included in the 40th edition of the Canadian standard grammar guide.
The guide says "in short: avoid it for the most part. And if it must be used because it adds a valuable news element to a story, spell it out. No f and three asterisks. No "eff word.'' No freakings, friggings or firkings either, for that matter," according to a Canadian Press article. Strangely enough fuck did not once appear in that article.
