This whole discussion seems to be about the word "sucks".....I agree it is a word that certainly gets ones point across. If there were no guidelines on this forum, I'm sure that we'd see a LOT more words that we don't like to see or hear. Unfortunately, the words that the the younger generation use on a very regular basis, very often really bother the older generation.....we just didn't use them in our time..some guys might have used it in the military or the locker room...but it was not acceptable language. It is funny how a "word" can turn people off. I know when I was bringing my children up, I had and still do have a real hate of the phrase "shut Up".....just HATED it. I don't think anyone means to bully anyone by saying that they have a problem with this word...I don't like it either, but it has been used here lately.
