I saw one of those signs, and wondered when I would hear someone complain about it.

I think I should find a verse to use out of context here... that would be something I would do, right?

Its not to me or any other person our age but I dont see why we should think that someone older shouldnt be offended by this.

You have a point...is that not ONE of the so-called Christian cuss words?

I am easily offended and it doesn't bother me. I don't make a practice of using any derivatives of the 'F' word. I know many Christians who do. The one I hate the most, and I honestly think if you say this you might as well say the real thing is eff*n. That word does offend me. Frick and Freak do not.

I'm older, and I think anyone who is offended by that sign needs a life. I don't have one anymore, or I'd let them borrow it.

I'd only be offended if it said "frappin' chicken."

sorry, but if you are offended by that then you need to get your feelings in check because you are more sensitive then an emotionally unstable teenage girl in the middle of a fight with depression and puberty after having her boyfriend break up with her on valentines day.

Not necessarily offensive, but it is a substitute word and unnecessary!
STUPID ad anyway!

So a fried egg sandwich would disgust you?

Frickin' has no sexual connotation whatsoever. Nobody says, "Me and my wife are frickin' tonight."
You and your wife are
what??
People will get offended over anything. The company I work for gets feedback every day about the offensiveness of our promotions.
I still miss the "You Bet Your Sweet Aspercreme" spot. That one was classic.

What about "Get your Freak on". Is that sexual? I'm asking because I honestly don't know if it refers to dancing or something more intimate.
