I never seem to get appropriately coded romance scams.
I guess the RFI from my computer is jamming the gaydar.

If you do it the former way, you’re supposed to use a zero as well: “Pr0n.”

Yeah I am not good at it (porn, I mean…) Better at the other one (pron, I mean …)

Why the hell do you care enough to post that here? What difference is it to you if they type pr0n or porn? The ‘you’re not cussing enough’ crowd confuses the fuck out of me
Donkter@lemmy.world 2 months ago
I mean, you still “cussed”. Switching two letters around doesn’t change the meaning and the original word doesn’t hold any special powers.
I agree it’s not much to make a reply about.
I think the attitude stems from the view that using placeholder words for swear words is often associated with religious/puritanical attitudes since there’s not really a reason to do it so the user reacts as they would to puritanical people invading their community i.e. hostile.
I think that’s not as true today but that’s where the backlash comes from.

You know, God forbid somebody uses voice dictation which bleeps it out or has to switch between work chats and social media.
Fuck, Even if it is somebody puritanical quoting on something they’ve got 70 up votes and somebody else has to come in and bitch at them because they might have sellf censored a word.
I think I’m just going to do the same rant every time someone plays that shit.

Mummy won’t shout at you.
Who put you in charge of what words people choose to use do you have some form of badge for this?
Why do you get to matter?
jwt@programming.dev 2 months ago
Goddamn I cant believe I have to explain this. Typing porn as pron or pr0n is funny because it connotates a rather transparent way of trying to hide your porn collection on a computer used by others/relatives. It in no way has anything to do with censoring. Stop getting faux outraged by every little non-thing. (he said outraged by a non-thing)

My stupid state has me blocked from many of the mainstream pr0n sites :( Too cheap to get a vpn though.

It’s fine, all the VPNs are run by feds!
Just buy the services of a prostitute like God intended.
