Recently, in English class, I had the kids proofreading sentences.
One little girl piped up, “The F-word needs to be capitalized.”
Um…well…yeah…sort of.
The F-word that she was referring to was Friday.
And yes, we do need to capitalize the days of the week.
Technically, she was right.
A proper noun does require a capital letter.
But I wasn’t about to explain the nuanced meaning of the F-word to her.
The teacher in me was professional.
But my inner, immature, 12-year-old self was giggling uncontrollably.
It’s called F-word Friday from now on.
