The h2g2 Profanisaurus
Created | Updated Jan 16, 2009
Well, since we are no longer able to even post a word beginning with F with three ***s following it, it seems a good time for us to come together and compile a proper h2g2 swear word lexicon that will beat the new filter system.
That being said, 'beating' the new filter system doesn't mean to say that we should be irresponsible and/or use our new lexicon in an abusive manner. For example, telling another researcher to 'off' is not the aim of the lexicon. Nor would it be in keeping with the general idea of still being able to express ourselves rather 'fruitily' without causing undue offense to other researchers
Suggestions are very welcome and with a bit of community effort I am sure we will end up with a list of imaginative words that enables us to carry on expressing ourselves in the manner to which we have become accustomed.
I'll put them here in alphabetical order with the name of the researher who suggested it. Starting off with. . .
