Seriously, I like & follow you both, but being offended by symbols & noises is (in the truest sense of the word) genuinely retarded behavior. Whether you are personally offended by the word, or you are taking offense on behalf of some imagined victim, it just makes no sense at all.
There are no bad words, there are only retarded people who can't handle some words.
Treating some words as though they have some special power only weakens you.
