Well, I'll be dipped.

Two of my favorite PF's in one place. Think I saw another participating.

I don't like to impose a lot of onerous rules about how we communicate here, but allowing acronyms that may or may not have letters representing "bad" words is about the limit on profanity. Using those words directly? Against the rules and more strongly against my wishes than you might know since you also know me off-site as a guy who'd loan you his velcro mittens and show you how to properly use them.

On the site, not cool. Don't ask yourself "How would Bob say it?" Ask yourself "How would the advertisers whose money keeps the lights on and feeds Bob feel about their ad right here."

Though I can kinda relate to the assertion that some things just don't carry the weight they should without the eff word, personally I have more respect for the person who can express the same opinion just as strongly without taking such a lazy route.

Especially when you have time to think of better ways to get the message across.

So, simply not allowed. Not because it offends me. Because it offends others including my advertisers.

Quoth the guy who did this vid: youtube.com
