The Clbuttic Mistake: When obscenity filters go horribly wrong

[Abaddon]

Different cultures have different offences durrr

I preferred my way of making that point.

This is old news but it is still fun to laugh at the sex obsession of the fundamentalists.

There's an old Benny Hill skit where Benny is a game-show host and the little old guy (Jackie) is a contestant. It's a trivia competition, and two of the questions are:

Benny: What is an ass?
Jackie: A litt'l donkey.

Benny: That is correct. What is an ascot?
Jackie: A litt'l donkey's bed.


It's cute, when you hear it in the proper accents. My point is that to me (and obviously to Jackie ), an "ass" is an animal. A "tit" is a bird. A "butt" is something used in archery.

It seems to me that before some of these profanity filters are put in place, the programmers should read a thesaurus.

Leading the charge against such filter abuse is the actor who played the chimney sweep in Mary Poppins: Mr. Penis Van Lesbian.

I should think the Flintstones and Rubbles would be quite upset as well...

Here's another one:

Tyson Homosexual was a blur in blue, sprinting 100 meters faster than anyone ever has.

His time of 9.68 seconds at the U.S. Olympic trials Sunday doesn't count as a world record, because it was run with the help of a too-strong tailwind. Here's what does matter: Homosexual qualified for his first Summer Games team and served notice he's certainly someone to watch in Beijing.

"It means a lot to me," the 25-year-old Homosexual said. "I'm glad my body could do it, because now I know I have it in me."

and

Wearing a royal blue uniform with red and white diagonal stripes across the front, along with matching shoes, all in a tribute to 1936 Olympic star Jesse Owens, Homosexual dominated the competition. He started well and pulled out to a comfortable lead by the 40-meter mark. This time, he kept pumping those legs all the way through the finish line, extending his lead. In Saturday's opening heat, Homosexual pulled way up, way too soon, and nearly was caught by the field, before accelerating again and lunging in for fourth place.

The article has some other funny gaffes as well.

Apparently it was an urban legend for some time that that was his name . . .

I know we had even a separate thread for that, a while ago.

That is what my brother likes to call him.
