No, not the television show. After I noticed I hadn't established any rules on swearing the other day I've gone and added words to a censor list, so anything you write that I've added to the list will be replaced with something else. I considered replacing them with words like "rainbow" or "kitten" but in the end I just went for the standard * instead.

So, swear away to your hearts content!

OK, I relented.

Let's give it a go:

cereal, roses, tiny kitten, leprachaun

EDIT: Oh dear, I shouldn't have laughed as much as I did when I saw that but it is quite amusing. I'm not going to tell you what they replace, you'll have to work that out for yourself :)

Plop.
It doesn't work, I can't think of a worse word than 'Plop' and it didn't change...
Very frustrating.

Well Tee, any offensive word that one writes should automatically change to (for example) Kitten, Cereal blah blah fishcakes.
So I set it a little test and typed in the word 'Plop', with all its appalling intimations and innuendo, and it didn't change.
Or are there more words in the English language worse than 'Plop'?
I think not.

Ah, it's all good fun. RG or I have to tell it what to censor though, so you may well come across some words I haven't replaced - in fact I've jut thought of a couple more.

Have a bowl of cereal good day!
