Why does "cockroach" (c.ockroach) get censored but not Discocks?

not as bad as the games on MSN game zone. you can chat inside some of the games, if you're playing with someone else especially. It censors the word 'adult'.

It reminds me of Jimmy Kimmel's "This Week in Unnecessary Censorship." The fact that the word is being censored is more profane than the word itself.

"Somebody please help me--I have a cockroach infestation in my apartment."

I would think reading this "Holy shiat, there are people breaking into his apartment and fukking?"

It's not like Koreans are offended by our swears.

And rather American-centric, too. Bloody wanker, bugger, bollocks, all OK.

When I lived in Scunthorpe no-one gave a rats arse if you said naughty words.

Here's a variation on the fill-in-the-blanks exercise. Guess what's been edited out (answers at the far bottom).

Dick Cheney had put some chicken breasts to cook in frying pan, and was reading a book by Charles Dickens when he saw a cockroach scuttle by.

Uh...I'm betting the Terms of Service forbids this discussion. Sounds like you're being critical of the mods...and you know that group is as sensitive as exposed nerves.

If they have a problem with it, they're welcome to erase it.

I think it's a lot more rude to see things like Dick Cheney and cock roach than the actual words.

Here's a big collection of Unnecessary Censorship videos.
