Someone recently posted and asked why no one else was complaining about the
language in the FML.
 
Well, I am also very insulted by the bad language.  I am a soon-to-be
college student, so you'd expect me to be a participant in the swearing, but
I personally think you can find better ways to speak, even to be convincing.
 
I typically try to skip altogether the letters with words in them I don't
appreciate.  But even when they have @*(*(@*#()@ signs, you can basically
figure out what the writer was trying to say.
 
Thank you, BIG, for saying you will now have them rewrite their posts.  When
I first started reading the FML only a little while ago it seemed this
problem did not exist, and it would be nice to see the writers of posts talk
with clean language everyone feels comfortable with.
