    There's a place in the UK called Scunthorpe, I love it when filters change that... :)

    I'm glad you ask that question also. Cause I wanted to know, but didn't want to ask.

    It's MFP's swear filter at work. Instead of making naughty words say **** or whatever, they change them to *kitten*

    Aah, I came to this thread via a google search for "What does kitten mean" which was inspired by seeing it used so pervasively in these forums. Thanks for the explanation.

    The software is matching against a list of words, so if you're clever you can make the same point by using your own inventions like nipploids and danglydoos and forking iceholes.

    LOL...That last one of yours is going straight into the daily vocabulary. :)

    I prefer more creative ways to get around swearing.

    Kitten kitten kitten kitten.

    So my previous post in this space had one kitten left uncensored, and then when I censored it myself with *baby feline* (thanks for the idea @AnnPT77 ) the censor took off two previous kittens. Hmmmm.

    Ohh, we can do Father Ted swearing: 'Fup you, you fupping grasshole' and:

    "I said, "I Wouldn't know Ted, ya big bollocks!"
    "DOUGAL! Have you been reading those Roddy Doyle books again?"
    "I have, Ted, you big gobshite!"

    Father Ted has the BEST swearing.. :D

    I have to admit that it is kinda cute. We can't shout swears from the meowtain-top of MFP, but we can write whatever the kitten we want and get it auto-corrected.
