LOL. Most celebrities seem to really enjoy being on GMA.

Saw it live and it was hilarious. Poor Tom Hanks. But it wasn't really that big of a deal. Super quick and life goes on.

Seriously American's are so uptight about this. It's dumb, it's not like it's going to corrupt young minds, I'm sure they hear(and say) worse at school or with friends/family

LOL, I love the explosive reactions to a live-on-TV f-bomb. I understand completely, but suddenly, it's as if we don't hear and/or use that word day in and out.

I love that Diane Keaton just does not care.

The Sue Simmons one is a masterpiece. It reminds me of Pauline Kael saying when she was in college, she began cursing all the time, because she thought it made her seem mature and different. Then when she and some friends were stuck in a garage, she heard the mechanics throwing around profanity and she realized the power and force the words actually have.

You really can see that with Simmons. She was born to say that word. It's almost like poetry.

As for Tom Hanks, that woman on GMA basically dared him to curse and was then horrified when he did.

I think it's so ridiculous when people say that "bad words" are bad because of their "power." Maybe I use cuss words because I want to convey that power.

I think there's always that line between just sort of saying them to seem cool and saying them to get a point across. I've done both, I guess almost everyone has. The Sue Simmons clip reminded me of the comments because you can tell how annoyed she was, she really drove it home in a way that saying a word like [!@#$%^&*] puts a big exclamation point on.
