Default Idea for a replacement 'WTF' thread...

Since the "F" in 'WTF' seems to offend the almighty sensitive boogle, how about we adapt a friendlier sounding phrase from our friends in England and down under and call it the 'What-the-bloody-hell', or 'WTBH' thread?

We all know what it means, but it sounds a bit more pleasant.

Back at the turn of the century, here in Australia we had a TV show called Rove Live. He had a segment called "What The...?"
Start at 0:53 seconds.



I was watching it, waiting for "What The...?" when the twin towers were attacked.
The live news was on all channels from about 9pm Perth time. I sat and watched in disbelief until 1am.

That's what I think too. But couldn't the Mods just delete the one post that was bad. I'm sure there is more to it though.

I find it ironic that the letter 'F' has supposedly caused so much commotion and yet we have this

Exclamation Re: Idea for a replacement 'WTF' thread...

The original WTF thread was deleted and removed by Badger himself for "Google Adsense Violations"

And I'd tend to believe if another one (this one) exists no matter what y'all feel disguising the title as , I tend to believe it will be gotten gone soon too.

Adsense violations are a content issue, not a title issue.

Adsense violations are an intrusive advertising issue that when irritated affect badgers profits from their intrusiveness, not a title issue.

Fixerededed for truth.

Fawk adsense and the digital horse it rode in on.

Removing metadata from images might help.

Double you, tee, eff.

That should sort the space cadets from the adults.

Whatever in the world that means.

We can't even get people to resize their pictures properly

Honestly what would help is if people realized that Badger makes money from Google, and posting like we're in a high school locker room doesn't help. Everyone here should know what is and isn't acceptable.
