I managed to earn this rating because I said the word "dead" twice and "corpse" once, and that was in quoting the Chabon-related pieces last week. I gather dead corpses are not considered appropriate for children.
All the words to catch me on, and they're not even fun words.
Either I need to start reading all the historical erotica publishers keep sending me, or start mining the historical dictionaries at work for amusing new swear words.
I got Restricted, apparently because I used the words 'death', 'dead' and 'murder' about 25 times! That's what you get for discussing the murder of Edward II...;)
I got a PG too. Can't remember what for--probably "dead" stuff too.
ReplyDeleteI just tried it again and it was a "G" this time! Maybe I need to steam things up a bit?
