If only he’d travelled to Scunthorpe!

I dare say for any UK based user they are still seeing their fair share of Cummings memes, jokes, rage, vitriol, etc. regardless.

Frankly any feature to reduce over-exposure to this farce will be blessed relief.

Which reminds me - what three teams in the Football Association contains cursing in their names?

Scunthorpe, Arsenal and Manchester Fucking United.

I'll lead myself out.

It's a safe assumption that many of the explicit verb based surnames will face the same barrier to trending. Equally proud names like Shittings, Crappings, Fuckings, Dickings, etc.

In a cemetery on Memorial Day, I noticed a rather large grave monument for the Outhouse family. It was from the mid-19th century; I'm not sure what connotation the word might have had back then. I've heard the term "outbuildings".

It took me an embarrassingly long time to understand this. Something to do with 4am I guess.
