Showing posts with the label subliminal

Mind Your Language.

Thank God for pie charts. If it wasn’t for them, this website would be guilty of a heavy-duty cuss. As names go, it's pretty hard-hitting. They're not beating around the bush (no pun intended).   What is a statcunter anyway? Presumably someone who needs a lady-part and quick. Somebody was paid to design that logo. It seems they didn’t think it through. Maybe they did: perhaps the graphic designer had a score to settle and wanted to see what he could get away with. I hope that no-one noticed the subliminal swear until the fee had cleared in their account. This isn’t the only instance of unexpected foul-mouthery. It’s everywhere you look.   Take this character in the iPhone game Squids: Or the title of this book:   Clint Eastwood’s parents have got a lot to answer for.
