Okay, well, no, that’s not quite it. But it’s close! I swear!

While it’s probably not meant to be funny, when I read the AP story “Spears’ New Album Contains Cursing”, I was giggling most of the way through.

Britney Spears’ third studio album comes out next month, and it contains a few curse words that she knows some parents may not want their children to hear. “When I say ‘hell’ and ‘damn,’ I say it out of frustration in my songs. It’s not, like, a normal term of endearment that I use all the time.”

Well that’s good to know — because ‘hell’ and ‘damn’ sure are terms of endearment that I use on a daily basis, but it would be a sure sign of the apocalypse (or, at the very least, the world going to h-e-double-hockey-sticks in a handbasket) if Miss Spears, that paragon of virtue and teenage innocence, were to start slinging them around like beads at a Mardi Gras parade!

Um…or something like that.

(My second choice for a headline: Britney Spears contracts Tourette’s Syndrome in recording studio; FBI, RIAA, and PTA launching investigation targeting bin Laden)
