I am sitting here watching Sweet Home Alabama, one of my favorite movies, on USA, and noticed that they bleeped out the line "Are you shittin' me?
That's all fine and well. I have no problem with that, but I find it highly hypocritical of the network when the movie goes on to include the words, bitch, piss, and ass - all in the same scene as the "shittin' me" line.
As this website shows...
Melanie Carmichael: Well, for starters, you can get your stubborn ass down here and give me a divorce.
Jake: You're shittin' me, right?
Melanie Carmichael: I never fully understood that expression, but no, I am not "shitting" you.
Jake: The only reason I ain't signing is cause you've turned into some hoity-toity Yankee bitch, and I'd like nothing better right now than to piss you off.
Oh, and don't forget the cute line in the same scene: "...you know that old bastard hates me!"
Go figure.
