Blasphemy filter

Post by benp1 »

Inspired by the other thread where the swear filter popped up, what's on the list

So far I'm aware:
Crikey, how much (Londonista road cycle brand, sounds like Nadal's first name)
piss bottle (cycle water bottle, sounds a bit like bidet)
short ride (smaller than a mini adventure..!)

How do we get more on the list?

Could result in many comedy moments, if only we could do it with real spoken word

Hmm, clever :geek:

I see them as little "Easter eggs" - a new one will crop up from time to time, and it takes a while before it gets used or before someone spots it.

I suppose we're looking for the non-swear words that get changed as they're often funnier - like Crikey, how much

I think there's a correlation between stuff Stu has a general disdain for, which is why I'm surprised fatbike still comes up as intended (cue new entry to list :lol: )

The usual swear ones you can find yourself, but I suspect guessing the full list will be a right clint.

(The filter also works in preview so you don't need to post first to see it.)

I'd like to propose 'perfectly acceptable' as a subsitution for vaguely exciting.

How do words/phrases get added? Is it up to Stu?

I must be a good boy since I've never noticed any of my posts being filtered. I'd be frollicking annoyed if they were :wink:

I'm glad there's at least one person not afraid to be controversial :smile:

As an aside to word substations, my mother in law once referred, somewhat unwittingly, to Twitter as Twatter, which amused me no end.

Yes but surely calling two different things by the same name will get confusing.

I'm not sure I've every used the swear filter so will have a go now!

Whats the problem with Crikey, how much? It's actually very good kit, not sub standard, but it's expensive. They do sell a piss bottle. which is ideal for a 5-9 short rde

Just seen on another thread Stu mentioned about Dave Barter and his swearing. Should we not have a filter on Dave's name to "Man who swears a f*#king lot" or something similar......sorry Dave :lol:

"Lauf" should automagically invoke the spewing gnome in its technicolour glory.

There's a thought - could the filter be used to substitute phrases for code, so that "puking-gnome" becomes:[img]http://www.reactiongifs.us/wp-content/u ... gravity_falls_looped.gif[/img], which would them get rendered thus:

Took me a bit too. Given a person of particular influence on here has one, I think it's unlikely :wink:

Not sure the software is that clever ... or the operator :wink:

Would seem a little unfair. I know the filter contains Raph* but that changes to Crikey, how much which isn't a slur, simply fact :wink:

This reminds me
I recently got 10% added to my wheelbuild bill for saying "26er" within earshot of the Proprietor.
Apparently "Gravelbike" is perfectly acceptable though.
