Punished like the “Stars”

I saw this online about Asslee Simpson (yes, I misspelled it on purpose) tonight:

Well, maybe not, but she did have to deal with her parents’ wrath after uttering the “B” word (that’s Bitch, by the way). According to The Post Chronicle Ashlee Simpson’s parents literally washed her mouth out with soap after hearing her use the offending word.

‘I said a bad word once, and I actually did get my mouth washed out with soap. I know, you sometimes hear about that, but it actually happened to me.’

Just once? Are you kidding me? Poor, poor Asslee Simpson! I had my mouth washed out with soap a few times when I was little (but luckily not as much as my brother did). What’s worse than that is the dreaded tabasco drop! My mom would put a drop on our tongues and make us stand there for what seemed like forever (but was probably only 30 seconds) until we were begging to spit it out! We’d walk around with our tongues in a glass of water for the rest of the evening to make our parents feel guilty but they never did.

One thing Two things I can say for sure:
1. Our parents were just doing the best they could to teach us respect without beating us into tomorrow
2. The soap/tabasco trick doesn’t work. I have a mouth like a trucker now, worse than I ever did before.
