      The word or string “ass” may be replaced by “butt”, resulting in “clbuttic” for “classic”, “clbuttroom” for “classroom”, “buttignment” for “assignment”, and “buttbuttinate” for “assassinate”.

      This is seriously one of the funniest things I’ve ever read. Like gosh, I’d recommend everyone give that article a full read. I couldn’t even get mad at the stupidity. I’m bookmarking this to read again when I have a bad day.

      I see this all the time in Elden Ring. So many players want the word “Knight” in their name but it just ends up rendering as “K***ht”. Also the substring “ho” comes up a lot and is censored.

        Two or three services blacklisted something in my username, Lyra Lycan. To this day I never found out what, why or which language

        I mean if using UTF-8 a single “character” can be twice the size of that. Depending on what counts as a character it can be even bigger. There’s no way this wouldn’t go **rribly wrong.
