wyntir_knightOkay, so I'm in Harvey's at lunch and they've got the radio on. Suddenly, I recognize the song as the new Black Eyed Peas song 'Don't Phunk With my Heart', only the station is muting out the word phunk.
Its quite obvious to me that the word was being censored because it sounds like another word, but I have to wonder how far this is going to go.
It brings me back to a story posted by theweasleking a while back about a school that banned 'Louie Louie' on the grounds that it was lewed. What next? Are they going to bann all the old 80s hair band songs? What about Bob Dylan? His stuff is uninteligeble and could be lewd. And don't even get me started on the Stones ....
