Thoosies...Why the hate?

I think the thing with Hitler is that the word may be censored on some comment platforms not because it’s a swear word as such but to prevent people from using it in an inflammatory way or to make offensive comments.

As an interesting aside you’ll sometimes see some internet users using the word “G-d” instead of saying “God”. It seems be a Jewish American thing which I think is perhaps done as writing the actual word is considered to be somewhat disrespectful as I understand it

knowing this is the Tavern and not for seriousness but people writing g-d is because it’s not allowed in most interpretations of Judaism to write the name of god.

Nothing to do with America, and not really related to YouTube censorship of the names of evil fascist dictators.
 
Why did I just read the last 4 pages.

Double post but who’s gonna tell me off. I pay the bills. @Craig come at me bro!

Now then @rob666 - I’m a busy gal with a full time job, life responsibilities etc etc.

Don’t you know who I am? Hmm. Listen to the whispers in the shadows of the forum…

(Also, if you are serious about me/Craig/the team operating on a dictator censorship model then I am concerned for what you believe to be restriction of free speech!!)
 
I can assure you it was nothing more than a lengthy **** take, enforced time on the puter because I was not allowed to play out in the frost and snow.
Still very closed season, but likewise back to work now all the nasty frostiness has melted.
 
"Thoosies"

Nope. **** off. Absolutely hate it.

Just saw someone mention it in a topic elsewhere on the forum and I threw up in my mouth a little.
Double standards @Sazzle eh? Disappointing that you said that you hate it a fortnight ago and now you're saying it without prompting. ;)
 
I believe words like rape and Hitler are often censored in things like youtube videos and tiktoks because they can cause videos to be demonetised or show up less in the algorithm meaning they get less interaction
 
8 pages of Thooooooooooooooooooooosie discussions.

Well it sure beats Airs Tynnek or Duel The curse at Alton Manor trommel discussion.

Soon be able to jet off on holiday once more
 
Someone has taken his guerilla campaign to the streets and left this monstrosity nailed to my garden gate ...

Which is quite in keeping with the Alton marketing. My driveway served as a lovely pre-show.
