    I’m fine with self-censorship so long as it’s also self-aware and funny, llike that D&D group on youtube where they replace penis with “schmenis”, that outright elevates things.
    Ideally take the opportunity to be creative with euphemisms, blur the line between censorship and art.

      I loved how Blade Trinity at least recognized the absurdity (for TV channels that required censorship)…

      Original:

      • Hannibal King: How about you take a sugar-frosted fuck off the end of my dick?
      • Danica Talos: And how about everyone here not saying the word “dick” anymore? It provokes my envy.

      Censored:

      • Hannibal King: How about you take a sugar-frosted fuck off the end of my Woohoo?
      • Danica Talos: And how about everyone here not saying the word “Woohoo” anymore? It provokes my envy.
