What if it were decided that discussion of poop were deemed vulgar? There are, after all, people offended by the mere mention of a good BM.
While I'm sure you know I'm not truly serious, I think you can see the point I'm trying to make. One man's vulgarity is another man's poetry and someone somewhere will be offended no matter what the topic or the language used.
If the staff asked us to keep the word "poop" out of thread titles, sure, I'd be cool with that. I'd even support it if it also meant keeping bigoted language and overly vulgar terms out, as Chad said on the OP.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
