This morning, I heard a DJ spell out the word 'fuck.' Then he asked his co-hosts, "Is it okay to spell it out?" And they said, "No. But it's okay."

The topic was about words that certain places/venues are trying to rub out. Apparently, the NFL is banning such words as "gay," "bin laden," and "nazi" on personalized jerseys. Also, Verizon Wireless is trying to find a way to keep words like "queer" and "fuck" from text messages. (Which is insane.)

People will then no longer be able to use text messaging to hook up at gay bars.

And Verizon would lose millions of dollars in business very quickly...

They wanted to ban the word GAY from fake NFL jerseys, but there's a real NFL player named Randall Gay.

Yes, that's what one of the co-hosts was saying.

I knew that the iTap doesn't recognize fuck, and makes you type it in letter by letter, but honestly ... what's a fucking queer to do?
