AHHHHHHHHHH! Another waste of fucking time!

Hmmm - Reminds me of recent debates of whether or not words like "prick" and "scumbag" should be taught in the ESL EFL classroom. I would always make a peadogogical exception and translate for my French students. It's hard - and often embrassing - for teachers. Most of them don't even come up with a fraction of the meanings, but you stepped up with a good 50% of the meanings. Bravo.

internet, I've never heard the word underclass before. Doesn't sound very good for sure, just like in America the term Trailer trash: People who live in trailer parks or mobile home parks.
