Get the Faux Pamug. Something some cunt says because they have a superiority complex that involves the complete and utter fucking inability to speak like a normal goddamn human being. The word literally means mistake. That's it. That's all it means. Say mistake, error, fuck up, anything... please. Cunt.

I apologize for my adamant mouth flatulence, and by apologize, I mean sorry not sorry. For I am better than you, and my choice of drapery would have more beige than your hideous plain Faux Pas white.
