    Isn't renaming a boat supposed to be bad luck?

    Oh this is new. Is "Nazi" a curse word that needs to be censored in print now?

      Not a curse word, but a target of automoderation algorithms.

      It's hard to know what actually is and isn't included -- they don't really use simple keyword matches. But it's a kind of affectation to say "Hey, I know this word might be moderated against so I'll use a euphemism for it". (See also: unalive)

      I think it's kind of pretentious, a way of calling attention to yourself as subverting some kind of authority. But the kids always try to piss us olds off with their language, so my opinion means less than nothing here.
