This one really isn't that big a spoof of Apple or Steve Jobs when you think about it.

That reminds me of this. It's a Harry Enfield sketch with Bill Gates and Steve Jobs 'getting along' :P

"...you know how much they love a kiss Intel story...". God, that's such an awful joke.

Ridiculous example of censorship on Craigslist:

I can't type the city because Craigslist thinks I'm typing obscenities.

Because the name of the city is DICKINSON.

And if you type it on this forum it appears as DICKINSON!

Well, how many people here live in DICKINSON?

Actually, the presence of swear blockers here makes it funnier. If you want to bypass the filter, the words in question have to be in bold or italics...

[size=24]I will test this with other words below; children or people offended by the presence of swearing, please do not read the below text (which will scroll)[/size]

The YaBB filter is stupid. All you have to do is insert some YaBB Code in the middle of the swear word. One trick is to make the whole word look bold.

Code: [Select]

You don't even need the spaces.

Nevermind, YaBB was displaying your post wrong...

You smell like an ass.
Ass is a proper term for donkey.

Yes, though I would see no relevant reason to use that word unless insulting someone or cussing.

How is it not relevant? Its an accepted word for an animal. I've even heard it used on a carton for kids.

 Bitch is also an accepted word for an animal.

I don't know you don't walk up to someone's pregnant dog and say that's a nice bitch you got there. At least I don't...
