I seem to recall a similar post there a little while ago [same thing too; ended up as a split topic]. I can't be arsed looking for it right now but I added my thoughts to the mix. Reading this one.

Just want to point out that the 'Mrs Grundys' in the thread Bella's linked to are not RatSkep staff but members with an aversion to words they find fucking offensive. Silly cunts.

Yeah, I like deep conversations and I think quite a bit but I can do without someone tried to smack my hand for talking like a grown up.
