Why can't we say fock?

[Harry H]

I can't believe that NSC has banned the word fook.

 

[DavidinSouthampton]

It is, I believe, what is commonly called an obscenity. Some people will, therefore, be offended by it. Not me, particularly, but........

 

[Barrel of Fun]

I think only Google is offended by the f-bomb and Google pays for the site to operate.

 

[Surf's Up]

Is f**k acceptable?

 

[Surf's Up]

Is f**k acceptable?

Looks like it is.

I'm puzzled, I seem to be able to use the words fock and fook without issue?

There's a tranche of ****ing swearing that's blocked.

 

[Leighgull]

Ooh, wankers ok.

A few years back you could use any word on here. It's just another downward step as Bozza does as he's told.
