There's no way around it. Some words are just rotten. They sound dirty. They're spelled strangely. You feel like you need a shower after saying them. 

But at the Office of Obscenity, someone has been sleeping on the job. Words that should have been flagged as offensive got into widespread circulation. I think it's time for that to change. The following are examples of words that sound more offensive than the vast majority of vulgarities. Use them around children with caution: 

Flagellum 

Uvula 

Phlegm

Chortle

Slag

Spigot 

Fecund

Coccyx
