In the time from my grandfather’s generation to mine, language has evolved. Consider this:

An expression denoting ignorance on a subject:

“Hell if I know.”

has evolved into:

“Fucked if I know.”

Follow the evolution of the phrase: Ignorance used to mean Damnation; now it means Sex.

I’m sure this revelation explains something, but I have no idea what.

Hmmm. I guess my language says something about me, too, since I tend to the former ...
