    Indeed, I don't know why the swear filter hasn't been adjusted to catch this, one of the filthiest words in the language! :)

    Surely someone with the name "homersimpson" should know that

    W*** certainly interferes with time on mse and time to be old style. Wouldn't be without mine (though something less demanding would be welcome at times) because it pays the bills and means I give something back to society. With my line of work I always learn new skills which is good for boosting how I feel about myself. Loads of people who would love to be able to work, can't do so for various reasons. If I won the lottery I would definately put my feet up as its been really hard doing the job I do and being a single parent, but I do remind myself to be thankful for it.
