get the fcuk out

It's 8:30am on Monday, I'm trying hard to make it to class on time, so I can only pick one CNN.com story to read. I need to rank my priorities: what in this messed up world do I care about the most on a Monday morning?
It turns out, French Connection is going to go easy on the fcuk branding. Their sales were too low. Now they might actually try to incorporate fashion making into their business strategy.
Two things that I was trying to figure out: one is, what happens to all those people whose job it was to come up with the fcuk slogans? There is probably a Markus with a k who got laid off this morning, and for the last three years all that Markus did was think of things to write on t-shirts. By the way, the morning he came up with lucky fcuk - that was a lousy morning. Following a lousy night. So tell me, what about dyslexic Markus?
My second concern is whether my good old cool as fcuk t-shirt is now going to become so-last-season or increase its value with time like an old comic book on a collector's bookshelf.
