Isn&#8217;t it?&#8221; I had to admit I couldn&#8217;t say one way or the other, however the show does have reputation for being pretty free with the expletives and sexual content.<\/p>\n<p>The reason we&#8217;ve never watched the show isn&#8217;t that of course. We would hardly be shocked by a bit of foul language and sex. We just don&#8217;t fancy watching it. His reaction on the other hand was disgust at his perception of the content. Funny isn&#8217;t it how people&#8217;s views on what could generally be termed adult programming vary so much. I suppose as the guy is older than me his attitudes were forged at a time when morals and attitudes were different, though I&#8217;ve know people older than him who weren&#8217;t so prudish.<\/p>\n<p>It takes all sorts I suppose.<\/p>\n<p>Tags: <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Shameless\">Shameless<\/a>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/obscenity\">obscenity<\/a>, <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/morals\">morals<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had a conversation with someone at work today that highlighted the disparity between different people in what is and is not considered to be naughty, dirty, filthy or unacceptable. &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/alexsuze.com\/?p=1029\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[3],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/alexsuze.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1029"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/alexsuze.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/alexsuze.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alexsuze.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alexsuze.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1029"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/alexsuze.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1029\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/alexsuze.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1029"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alexsuze.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=1029"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/alexsuze.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1029"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
