Which annoying feature are you talking about?

Are you saying you really don't have the hiccups?

The "hiccup" is being used to replace "l.o.l.". At first I thought everyone was having a few drinks while posting, but when it happened to me at work, I was sure that I hadn't drank *that* much :)

Try using the "f" word and see what happens.

Nooooo, try again. Everyone is so nice, here, I know it is difficult to post a cuss word. I promise to remove it if it goes wrong.

Lol it's a great word when used in the right context. How it came to be used in the way it is today is a little more interesting considering it wasn't originally intended to be used negatively, at least I don't think?

Karen has rights to bypass the "bad word" filter. She is our highest moderator. You do not, you soft, cuddly, kitty-cats.



That was interesting to find that even when you quoted her, the filter was engaged.

This might be the only time it gets used, you are such a nice lot, but we are ready for the next spam attack.

Bastards beware! We will expose you for the soft, cuddly, kitty-cats you are!

And then we'll loose our dogs on you.

You all crack me up! So if I write F. u .c .k it appears as....." I am a soft and cuddly, little kitty-cat." That is so great. I know Allison and I had this convo not too long ago. I love how it "takes the steam out of things"

Everytime someone says "pup" it should say "stop being so impatient" Hahaha! :P
