Could a moderator of this forum please edit keith191283's post. I think we could all get the gist of what the picture was inscribed with if it was edited to say "Keith, Kick some a** bud, Best Wishes". I know it's knit-picking, but I figured it's best safer than sorry with the young crowd. :)

Hey Lisa,

You have to take into account that he's in Scotland, where that particular word may not have the same "strength" that is has here in the US.

I do agree that the word should be edited for some of our younger, American members.

Hi!

I've edited Keith's post to say a**!!! When I first saw it, it didn't really bother myself, but now that I remember there are younger memebers here, in which the language would not be suitable for I have mended it!!

Larisie :D

Hey Lisa,

Thanks for pointint that out for us!! I was on the same boat as Larisie, I looked at it but didn't really care too much about the word as it doesn't bother me, but i also remembered that there are a LOT of younger members here!! Great job!!

And Thank you Larisie for fixing up the word!! {up}

:lol: The exact same thing goes for me, but my husband and I have really had to crack down on what gets through to my son (both through us and T.V., etc.) since he tends to imitate everything right now :oops:! So that's probably what led to me spotting it. That and the fact that I still moderate on the elmosplayground website, where obviously there are MANY young viewers, so I'm pretty well conditioned to spotting even little things that most of us see as harmless. :)

In England, the word is not really frowned upon anymore because there is a television advert advertising Renault Clios which is famed for its large behind - so here in the UK it's fine, however well done Larisie for fixing the word for the younger US users. {up}
