Yep, I thought that would grab your attention, though this is a serious point and one that confuses me. Here goes the neighbourhood:
Is the word beginning in a, ending in e and having rs in between offensive to anyone around here if it's used in, for example, this context:
The poster faffed around, adding dummy code between the first two and the last two letters in the word, only to find himself being subjected to a warning and told by something called a "moderator" to mind his Ps and Qs. He checked, but the word didn't include either of these letters so, out of kindness, he pointed this out to this "moderator" only to be issued with a temporary ban from posting on that site.
That poster was quick to convert his try into a goal and used a word that succeeded in getting him banned properly. If a job's worth doing, etc.
We're all really lucky to have the use of this here forum, it sometimes takes the actions of pompous a**es elsewhere to make us realise how chilled we all are on Practically these days.
'That's all.

So someone posted that on a well-loved site that caters for those who prefer their cars mature. Imagine the shock the mystery person received when, after posting, his words had been got at and the affectionate, non gender-specific colloquialism replaced by a tiny image showing the head of what might have been either a dog or American cartoon character "Pedobear".Hmm, for that sort of cash I'd grab one of these late '90s Toyota Corolla 5 door hatches that have a gigantic arse and a surprised expression on their face. Toward the bottom end of the allotted budget range, you would buy a solid runner with no major mechanical issues and no serious rot, the top end would buy the best which, as those of you who've known me the longest can confirm, is a blue one with classic blues tunes playing on its cassette deck, though red is OK if you're a major shareholder in T-cut..
