for the sake of the french

I think we should stop using the word douche.
because people in france douche everyday, or so I would hope. I douche sometimes twice a day, depending on how dirty I feel. If we could maybe stop using a french word as an english derogatory, I mean the english language sounds like shit as it is, but to take a really beautiful language and start using their words in our own daily vocab? pish posh! douchebag only intertwines a french word and an english word, how can that even exist. the closest thing in french would just be to write douchebagage. and I know that's completely ridiculous, because it would have something to do with shower bags. I never took french, so this is all probably irrelevant for everyday knowledge, but i have nothing else on my mind, and bagage is the first word that came up when i looked in a french dictionary to find out if they had the word bag.

Oi, I should really just start working on my portfolio, i'll ramble about random things later. I'll probably be thinking about some more stupid material tonight. Writing about stuff you know nothing about with an opinion suggesting you have some idea of it is actually really entertaining if you're into that sort. And I am. Plus, when can you ever make up the joke: Why do dogs sniff each others butts? Ans: Because the dog stole the lion's pepper. You'd have to be some sort of random genius or maybe take a class on fairy tales, either way the more random things are, the better you are at not knowing what it is that I wanted to talk about because i never mentioned anything about it at all. "You cannot see what I see because you see what you see. You cannot know what I know because you know what you know. What I see and what I know cannot be added to what you see and what you know because they are not of the same kind. Neither can it replace what you see and what you know, because that would be to replace you yourself... Everything you see or hear or experience in any way at all is specific to you. You create a universe by perceiving it, so everything in the universe you perceive is specific to you."-Douglass Adams in 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Mostly Harmless'
