I sent a letter out to a load of customers years back to tell them their new pentium upgrade would be shipped to them shortly.

unfortunately the spell checker changed it slightly so the letters I sent informed people their new penis upgrade would be shipped shortly!
Chuck you did make me LOL. Honestly. Lovely!!

sorry on of our admags had a wrap and someoen in studio had designed the artwork so it looked like a giant penis, only it was done very cleverely so you had to be looking at it from a distance, anyway it got through unnoticed and went out, the customer spotted it after it had been on the shelves for 2 or 3 days i think

Picture Fluff?

Also, have you checked the swear filter recently?

Spare Ed
Yeah....two Sh1ts now comes up with two Mangetouts...

And McFluff has changed
Pmsl.....good one

McFluff
You should change fcuk to a users name on a weekly basis and see how quick people cop on.
Question Author
Maybe that would encourage swearing? Not sure if it is a good idea. I should rotate it really. McFluff works in a sentence though, whereas "ummm" doesnt so much!
