Have you ever considered the possibility that you might be over thinking somethings to the point of absurdity?

Only to the extent that it's similarly obsurd to censor some of the other highly trivial stuff that is censored here and not that sort of stuff. ;)

Glad the birthday went well dude. 8)


Cheers, Dave.

I liked the fact that it highlighted misspelled words for me - as does Firefox - but in Firefox I can right-click and fix the problem - in Chrome I couldn't - kinda something you get used to I guess.

Heh, on the google note has anyone noticed the "now available in maori" link on the frontpage of google.co.nz - I just about fell off my chair when I saw that, I wonder what it cost them to implement that :rolleyes:

The phrase itself doesn't bother me, I just find it a bit stupid, what it signifies and it's blanket use does. If you can't say the word 'N a z i' on here without it being censored due to it being culturally insensitive (fair point I guess if you're playing it safe, though I suspect anyone or most cultures actually involved with those goings on are largely past it now) then how can you be allowed to throw away the phrase "pulling the trigger" about buying something when its routes are blatantly linked to gun crime and the dumbing down of its existance, particularly when it seems to be banded about largely by the occupants of a country who's heavy death toll due to guns seems linked heavily with the ignorance to them.

If you really, really, really have to call someone a N a z i, then call them a National Socialist.

I'm not sure it's filtered because it's politically correct. I think it's filtered because whenever someone disagrees with a moderator's decision, the first thing they want to do is call the moderator a N a z i. I know. I've been called that a few times over the last couple years.;)


I'm not short. I'm concentrated awesome!

Chief, it's been almost 3 years since I called you that. When are you going to let it go?
