What the gently caress are you talking about?

Flipping through the ol' internets and looking at the Vince Offer shots I noticed a curious phenomenon. Apparently, because internet forums restrict coarse language (fuck, amongst many other words) the users at the website somethingawful.com have begun inserting "gently caress" where the f-bomb would go. Fan-gently caressing-tastic.

The funny thing is, the users don't do that. It's the forum itself that displays these words to unregistered users, while registered ones are happily swearing.

So when you finally buy yourself an account and log in, you are somewhat disappointed to find out that funny "this loving book just loves to gently caress around with you so much" becomes much, much less funny.
