I've always enjoyed Jimmy Kimmel's unnecessary censorship segments. Not only are they hilarious but they point out the obvious flaw in censorship. Hearing "f***" is no different from hearing "fvck." We all know what was said under that bleep. Especially when it's more like "f**k" (which is more and more common). The mind still fills it in. So even if our precious virgin ears are saved from corruption, our mind is right there in the gutter. But for some unknown reason, those who are offended by "fvck" aren't offended by "f**k." I just don't get it.

Yes the words are censored so as to not have the site blocked from work. Though I suppose that's just a question of time as the firewalls get taller and thicker. Perhaps when LoT is banned from my workplace we'll remove the filters.

The reason why we censor words on LoT is not because the Puritans that created LoT are against these words but because, if certain Big Brothers at certain workplaces found these totally awful words were a part of our site, they would block the offending site from workers. Now, we wouldn't want that, would we?

And, back to cussing, I love to cuss in foreigh languages. Scheiße and Merde being my favorites.

The only thing good about the Matrix sequels was when one of the characters remarked on how delightful it is to cuss in French!

Chris and I really don't talk at all when we're at home.

We're so retarded

I've always found "enculer" to be amusing (not irl, sorry boys)
