I mentioned this in the assholes & dicks thread, but wanted to avoid it getting buried there.

I’m not a fan of forbidden words, but if it simply has to be, then I think we should officially name the list:

The SDMB Carlin List  
So say we all?

I don’t think every thought or question needs a thread of its own. It makes keeping track of and responding to them a lot more difficult, and since your original post was made in a thread that’s only two pages long right now, getting buried isn’t an issue it’s facing.
