I agree. He usually spells it with eight "u"s.

I'm somewhat sympathetic to the argument that we should keep the IOTD comments tame for the sake of not arousing notice from content filters.

The problem is, how to enforce it? Exactly what words do we ban? I mean, goodness, next thing you know we won't be able to discuss a holiday trip to Scunthorpe.

On the whole, I think we should leave it alone. I'm not convinced it's a big problem, and I'm not convinced there's a good solution to what problem there is.

My 'Net Nanny is strange. It will display several f***'s , but one too many, and it clamps down on the whole page...

So Net Nanny believes there is a certain number of fucks one is allowed; one extra fuck and next thing you know you're taking the Blasphemy Challenge.

That's because any nanny knows it's that last fuck that added the extra kid she has to clean up after.
