A flat white arse gets around certain things in the entertainment industry, billions of dollars also help.

FYI, Disney+ has a content filter that would filter out her concert if you thought it was too much for your kids.

If you want back history. Disney was putting their adult stuff on Hulu when they were partial owners. Now they are migrating everything to Disney+ and putting you in charge of filtering content.

Your kid has head “frick” at least 50 times before the concert

frick you, you fricking retard. I dont give a flying frick about your fricking political agenda. But fricking little kids is a bridge too far

Now thats the same amounts of 'fricks' that are reported to be Swifts movie. And I bet that right up until you got to this part, you were thinking it was a bit inappropriate, amirite?

Now apply that to teenagers at a Swift concert

Last June, Disney+ had way more rainbow trash on their app than any streaming service geared towards adults. Yet some people still think they are “kid friendly.”

Still more wholesome than what I was jamming to behind closed doors at 12 years old. “Hot Dog” by Limp Bizkit had 46+ “fricks” in it
Chocolate Star Fish and The Hot Dog Flavored Water was truly groundbreaking stuff

PG-13 is the new rated R since the days we grew up watching rated R movies

Ummm, you could still get a surprise boobie flash in a PG or PG-13 movie when I was a kid. Don't think that happens anymore.

I'm curious where the F-bombs were that the OP was talking about. Did he ever come back to explain? Does Taylor actually have. naughty words in her lyrics now?

That’s a neat graph so thanks for sharing. I’m honestly surprised ‘gay’ isn’t up there since she used it on Taylor Swift.

As others have pointed out some of her later stuff does. But she’s also like 30-35 years old. The pearl clutching is hilarious at best.

My wife has it playing on D+ and I have counted like 5 fricks so far.


I wonder how many are in Metallica’s Live shite Binge and Purge. My dad watched that with me when I was 9.

Edit: and I got to see them in Atlanta on my 12th birthday.

It has some SERIOUS competition:

Woodstock
Monterey Pop (which produced one of the most iconic images in Rock)
Gimme Shelter
The TAMI show
The Last Waltz
The Song Remains the Same
Depeche Mode 101
Sign O the Times
Stop Making Sense

Decided to fire it up tonight on Disney+. 40 minutes in and no fricks. At least not any detectable (I don’t know all of her songs and lyrics).

She puts on a hell of show.

Got it on right now. There's a few "fricks" scattered throughout some of her more recent songs, but anyone taking issue with it can get over it. She's in her mid-30s, FFS.

Love her or hate her, no one can say she doesn't leave it all on the stage. Nobody's accusing her of singing to a track, either.

I just wish she wasn't experiencing some arrested development from her teens and 20s, seeking to influence her fans' voting preferences now that she's hit an independent streak as she regains agency over her career and her music.
