    What do you think?  You never really hear Brad drop F bombs or cuss too much in general on forum posts, articles, or the Bombcasts.  Maybe his voice is so heavenly that an F bomb coming from his mouth is the same as:

    ZOMG!  HE HAS DROPPED THE F BOMB!!!  He did it in the Rock Band Beatles Confirmed news story:

    Brad said:
    I want to see the Tom Petty/Jeff Lynne/Dhani Harrison/Prince version of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" from George Harrison's posthumous Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame induction:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7sT1HRV2qU

    FUCKING EPIC.  (emphasis added)

    Brad, how could you?  We all just pooed in our pants.

    Then again, watching Prince wail an axe at the end of that performance will also make a man poo in his pants.

    Yes, but even if he muttered it in a whisper under his breath while typing it, it may have caused methane poisoning throughout California!!!

    I think you're on to something. One time, while I was on this date a couple years ago, I shat my pants. Now I can just blame it on Shoemaker.

    So if Brad said "fuck", we'd poop ourselves? Well, we might, but for entirely different reasons than you're implying.

    I'll repeat it, but just imagine it in a different voice to prevent trouser-soiling:

    BRAD!!!  YOU DID IT AGAIN THIS WEEK, and you did it a LOT more than the last few times.

    I don't have enough pairs of pants for this shit, dood!  You gotta lay off the F-bombs with that deep, manly voice.  Think of all the fecal matter that you are creating!!!

    I'm sure that he won't drop any F-bombs next week.  I just know he won't.  He will take the seat of our trousers into serious consideration.  =  D

    I've got a possible solution, though.  The secret lies in the vocoder.

    You see, my pupils, it's a very well known scientific fact that Brad's voice causes what is known as the "Brown Note Effect" (aka BNE) when he utters an F-bomb.  However, a recent study uncovered that vocoders could potentially cure this "effect" at its inception.  Unfortunately, out of the 100 test subjects, 23 of them actually open a rift into nothingness and were sucked into it.

    Brad, maybe you could try using the vocoder for your F-bombs on the next Podcast.  We don't like the idea of you being sucked into nothingness...but I think I speak for everyone when I say that this squishiness when we sit to write on the forums is causing some major...err...problems.

    I didn't make it all the way through last week's Bombcast.  I was afraid for my trousers.  Did Brad drop any more "F-bombs"?

    And apparently, this "F-bomb" theory has some kind of weight to it...as it's on the Wiki page now.

    Does anyone know any of these folks who have been sucked through a time rift?  Brad, maybe you should try filtering the "F-bombs" through Jeff's vocoder on the podcast and see what happens...but then again, further studies ARE needed.

    I don't know, what do you guys think?  Should we be the new batch of guinea pigs?
