Nov 16, 2013 at 13:58 comment added Sklivvz @badp agreed, see for example this ridiculous wikipedia thread about people getting offended by reading Italian profanities... on the Italian profanity article.
Nov 16, 2013 at 13:50 comment added badp It would also lead to useless debates on whether or not a given word is a swear word or not.
Nov 6, 2013 at 1:51 comment added Gabriele Petronella Same here. I don't see the need for handling such cases differently.
Nov 6, 2013 at 0:43 comment added Sklivvz Sure, and my answer is "no".
Nov 6, 2013 at 0:41 comment added Rui Jarimba People will make questions about swear words or expressions - e.g. "what does it mean xxxx in this context?". If you open the first link in my answer and go to rule #9 you'll see why they use the emoticon. My question was, basically, if we should handle it in a similar way or not.
