how hilarious. I typed the word lichen and got "lichen".

That is, p*o*r*n and got "lichen."

That was a brilliant substitute if I ever saw one.

Hint: type "pron" instead.

I have been to several sites that won't accept my last name (Sexton) because of the pr0n filter(s). :tantrum:

If one emits a single, wee, little stinkee, the f*rt gets bowdlerized, but if one cuts loose with a resounding series of stentorian blasts, the resulting plural farts go through unedited.

Conclusion: The perceived obscenity of flatulence is inversely proportional to its power.

The filters are a constant source of nagging temptation for me. The potential for mischief is endless.

What does that mean ("Give over")? I'm not sure I understand what you're asking me. :oops:

Are you asking me to stop or to tell you how I did it? If you're asking me how I did it, I used a different alphabet, with letters which look exactly like the Roman ones.

Ok, I told you. That's the best way to write any banned words, especially if you mean them in non-harmful contexts. That's what I always do. I thought you (the moderators) had caught on by now. Sorry. :P
