    Default why is it so ?

    Hey ,

    As a potty mouth myself I understand the value of editing sweariness.

    However why are words like "@r$e" that are intrinsically aussie in nature to use on the potty register but words like bastard arnt on same ?

    eh ?

    cheers

    The can has been opened again.

    Do you like your worms fried, natural, kilpatrick, BBQ'd or in a nice satay sauce perhaps.

    Whichever way appeals, I hope you enjoy them.
    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    F LI C K is not a rude word, but I bet it won't last.
    Ass is acceptable, as is bugger which Toyota use to promote their vehicles (maybe GM should use Sh**)
    Pass the can opener please.....

    Had an American educated business advisor in the PI who reckoned by definition an "Asset" was a little ass, cute preferably.

    Really, you guys......

    Yarpie = Sud Effrikan (presumably derives from their repetition of "Yaaar" when in conversation)
    Seppo = Septic Tank = Yank = our American cousins.

    You never heard of a 'bastard file'?

    Bastard file, n, typically the one that tears the skin off your knuckles, destroys the thing you were filing and ends up sailing across the room at mach 10 with it's name screamed after it... :eek:

    Might also be used to sharpen axes.

    I have thought long and hard how to answer you.

    My answer: Do a bloody search under my name for rules, acceptable language or whatever else you can think of because I am sick of explaining about acceptable behaviour etc.

    We gave you a forum where you can say what you want but some of you still aren't happy.

    I do not know why any of you have to act like school kids to get stuff past me. It can be said without the swear words.


    Be warned that from now on: The axe is going to get brutal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! because I am tired of a balancing act. No edits, deletions only because it is easier.
