It's still amazing. :slol:

EDIT: Not one to play without headphones btw. Can be a bit loud as well. You've been warned. :slol:


Well that's a blast from the past, i didn't realise it still existed. :lol:

Haven't even clicked on the link and my brain is screaming "ELEPHANT COCK! Rectuuuuuum"

Typing that out has reminded me that I really hate that you have to go to quite a bit of effort to make phone keyboards swear. It's not the developers' business to try and remove words - let me type what I want!

I suspect it attracts folk who also like to play with their glockenspiels.

Yeah, I need to be a bit careful as in the US it's a bit more serious.

I swear quite a lot. I generally find it very comical because of how over the top and exaggerated it sounds in certain situations. Though I don't understand people that swear in like every sentence.

Also surprised they got away with Jawa.Cum in the logo :lol:

Watching the F1 and they played a radio clip of a driver not being happy and swearing before sky could cut away from it or bleep it.

The hand wringing, pearl clutching "we are so sorry for the language used" apology that the presenters have to make is just pathetic.

Oh no! Someone said strawberry float in the heat of the moment! It's the decline of civilisation!

Load of shite.

And some people really need to take a look at themselves if just over hearing a work like strawberry float being used (even in an appropriate context) makes them turn into Helen Lovejoy.

banana splits

I strawberry floating hate this when watching boxing or ufc. We're watching people get brain damage in real time but lord forbid we hear someone say "gooseberry fool".

UFC commentators have to use "Oh my goodness" instead of swearing. It's comical.

It's apparently why they won't mike up PL referees as well, seemingly completely oblivious to the practice of bleeping swear words on recorded speech...

I still like that one of the Avengers movies managed to sneak Loki calling someone a 'mewling quim' because no one on the censor board knew what it meant.

I swear a fair amount. People dead set against hearing swears are weird. Even if a kid is within earshot. It's not the end of the world, get your priorities straight.

I learned most of the swear words I know from other kids on the playground when I was young so it's definitely pointless.

It's where i first heard most of the common swear words too, in fact, the c word was used as a name for that football keepy up game. All us kids were calling it that, yet the meaning of the word went straight over our heads as we didn't even know it was a swear word (i have absolutely no idea how it came to be called that either). God knows what would have happened had a teacher heard us. :lol:

I think if I ever had kids I would censor them to them point I knew they could do it themselves if they wanted/needed to. Appropriate swearing as it were.

I don't care about swearing but we live in a world where people really do, and you need to be able to manoeuvre within that, I guess.

My mate's 3 year old said to him yesterday "Daddy, Charlie <her baby brother> just did a massive gooseberry fool on my bed".

To be fair, he had and all.
