I do not like sleazy words like BJ...spelled out. This is a family site after all. There are teens who come here. I know that they have heard it all before but,we, the adults should still set an example. A little funning is okay but it can get out of hand purty durn quick.

Not that what I say should necessarily be, but I think an easy enough rule would be for each member to draw a line at certain words (which I believe are spelled out - sorry, is that a pun? - in the FAQ), and do as Flake advises and "****" those words. If/when a member wishes to post an image or quote which contains certain words, the post should be in a Spoiler with a warning. Certain words shouldn't be allowed even then (see FAQ).

If you go to "The Office" - link was courtesy of Spidey! and take a tour you will notice an upside down door mat that reads "Read the FAQ dammit!"
