Oh, I was just reminded of how ironic the title of this comic is, in the context of SP. http://xkcd.com/388/
Edit: Meh this is Rubik's Cube isn't it.
On the topic of swearing, I think that censorship of inappropriate words only feeds their negative connotation. If pomegranate was never considered an offensive term, it wouldn't carry that connotation and would simply be analogous to 'feces'. Then again, people are always going to figure out ways to let out steam (read: curse), so simply refusing to acknowledge any such words wouldn't change anything either.
