Posted by: Mr. Bingley at June 27, 2007 08:19 AMYeah, well "NC-17" used to mean "porn" when it was just called "X." Top that, Mr. It's Okay If Mommy Comes With You.
Posted by: Emily at June 27, 2007 08:23 AMAhem.
Our glory days are behind us.
Posted by: Ken S, Fifth String on the Banjo of Life at June 27, 2007 08:34 AMBehind us? I'd call this an improvement, Ken!
Posted by: Emily at June 27, 2007 08:45 AMIt's an improvement over a few days ago, but last November sets the bar high.
Posted by: Ken S, Fifth String on the Banjo of Life at June 27, 2007 08:56 AMI'm still amused that "twatwaffle" slipped right by them.
Posted by: Ken S, Fifth String on the Banjo of Life at June 27, 2007 08:57 AMKen,
I was amazed at the profanity count they came up with:
fuck (8x) shit (3x) ass (2x) bitch (1x)
Um, they only found eight uses of the word "fuck"? Val uses it more times in a single FFOT.
Posted by: Emily at June 27, 2007 09:10 AMConsider, though, that they only scan the front page, and no comments unless you put in the url of a specific entry. Try tossing in the last FFOT, count will go way high.
Posted by: Ken S, Fifth String on the Banjo of Life at June 27, 2007 09:17 AMI think it's a pretty "dumb" algorithm they use to compute it; I used the word "shitcan" in the post right before I ran it through the test and it didn't pick up on that. Nor did it pick up on my usage of "ass" in the sense of "bite me in the..." rather than in the sense of "long-eared quadruped beast of burden"
I think it only searches for the word itself, not for compound words containing the word. So "twatwaffle" would not compute.
Posted by: ricki at June 27, 2007 09:24 AMHere's what came up when I plugged in the URL of the last FFOT:
fuck (37x) fucking (10x) asshole (4x) ass (3x) fuckity (2x) shithead (1x)
I'm still kind of disappointed that we didn't break at least 100. Get cracking, kids. You got some cussin' to do!
Posted by: Emily at June 27, 2007 09:33 AMMy friends, I think that we can all agree - if there is anything above NC-17, it is a Val FFO. And hey, that gives me an idea...
Posted by: nightfly at June 27, 2007 10:24 AMUh oh...
Posted by: Ken S, Fifth String on the Banjo of Life at June 27, 2007 10:35 AM'scuse me....
Ruh roh...
Posted by: Ken S, Fifth String on the Banjo of Life at June 27, 2007 10:35 AMMy current front page was G. I went back a few months and varied from PG to PG-13. I had a couple of R ratings a while back.
Not that I am shooting for family friendly content ... guess I just don't give enough of a fuck. Or I save it for here.
Posted by: Cullen at June 27, 2007 11:25 AMI don't get it, I have "yippie ki-yay motherfucker" on my front page, and all I get is PG.
Posted by: Tainted Bill at June 27, 2007 04:13 PMTalk to Ken, Bill.
Posted by: Emily at June 27, 2007 05:50 PMBill, type it 500 times.
