My old English teacher was the grandson of the Hayes who developed the Hayes code.
What’d he say?
” “
(Dang. Didn’t work.)
What were you trying to do?
Of course one question worth asking is, “And how much did the overall quality of script writing improve in the long run after this convention was broken?”. 😀
“improve”?
It improved negative 1,000,000,000 fold.
Very little.
That question led to a pregnant pause… and that thought to the simple truth that a lot of words not used then have nothing to do with the words they put in today.
WKRP in Cincinnati had a character fired once for saying “booger”.
What the fudge-sicle?
I read that the name for the confectionary fudge came from what was said when somebody tried to prepare a different type of confection and it failed miserably.
Look out, Tim!
