Hi teejay,
> Yellowhat was clearly not referring to others with the remark, but clearly him/herself.According to the FAQ, ( http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/faq.html#civil ) we are not to use "language that could offend others." This applies regardless of the context. The words that are automatically asterisked are based on Merriam-Webster OnLine.
In this case, forming a compoung word with an adjective and a word that is coded in this system as usually considered vulgar bypassed the system.
> Not gonna make an issue over ot as YH edited the post but I do think you was just a bit quick on the button there :-)))Actually, I edited the post to add the asterisk eight days after the original post. Although I suppose that could be considered quick when you compare it to how long it's taking me to write, let alone edit manuscripts. :)
Thanks for sharing your thoughts about this.
Regards,
gg
