    Reminds me of a Dilbert comic... Poor Brenda Utthead.
    It would be even worse if she dated someone named Boris Evis.

    Also, Cheezburger.com has this example.

    Does Brenda watch clbuttic TV shows like The Jerk van Gay Show?

    Looks like you've run into an example of the "Scunthorpe Problem" - the difficult task of getting profanity filters to ignore swear words that are embedded in other, innocent words (such as the name of a place in England).
    Ah yes, the Clbuttic Mistake strikes again.

    That reminds me of a teenager who had trouble completing his Xbox Live profile because it had the word "gay" in it. He lived in Fort Gay, West Virginia.

    Naming Problems

    At the bank, the servers use the first three letters of a city. Thankfully, I used the letters TTV to identify servers in Titusville, FL.

    Art has to change those servers. I don't know if he'll thank me or not.
Working...
