Don't ask us how we got it, or how many honkeys and limeys we had to kill for it, but after the jump is Verizon Wireless's list of inadmissable naughty words. Verizon content providers (including many online news and entertainment sources) are banned from using obvious words like "fuck" and its derivatives, a smattering of racial slurs, and "queer" and "lesbo" — always a perfect way to pick a fight with more audacious gay rights activists. Ahh, the freedom of communication under New Media.
But the real reason I'm publishing this list is the more creative entries: "fleshpopsicle," "spearchucker," and "whiteswallow" (which I thought was one of the birds Craig Newmark feeds in his backyard). Like an 11-year-old boy, we had not thought of saying these words until we heard them, but now those words taste so good in our mouths.
Use the phrase "flesh popsicle" in a sentence today.
Disclosure: As far as I can tell, certain (but not all) entries from Gawker Media blogs are republished through Verizon and thus fall under these guidelines.
—-—-—-- Forwarded message —-—-—--
No Content provided to Subscribers of Verizon Wireless from Content Providers, whether in the form of text, audio, images, video or otherwise, may contain any of the words listed in Appendix A. This includes any variations in spelling of the words (e.g., fuck, phuck, fucks, fucker, fucked, fucking, etc.), any variations in pronunciation of the words (e.g., nigger, nigga, niggahs, etc.) or any combinations or creations containing any of the words (e.g., ass, assboy, asslicker, uptheass, etc.).
Nonetheless, it is not possible to compile a definitive list of unacceptable words. Language is fluid, with new words and phrases regularly entering the public vocabulary, and established meanings may change over time. For this reason, the list of prohibited words in Appendix A may change from time to time and is not meant to be all-inclusive.

"5"?
This reminds me of the list of words that you can't get printed on an NFL Jersey: http://outsports.com/nfl/2005/0301nflshopnaughtywords.htm<...
Their list is an exhaustive 1,159 words long.
What the heck does "rubyredbag" mean? I Googled every permutation of it I could thing of and came up empty. Even Urban Dictionary came up empty.
Hm... now that I think of it, maybe they just use it to find sites that are intentionally flouting their rules... If so...
RUBYREDBAG!
RUBYREDBAG!
RUBYREDBAG!
sitonmyface, and tell me that you love me!
looks like the window just opened up for the NBA, MLB, ESPN, NFL and others to find much more creative uses for the words:
ball
balls
hardball
big balls
dirty balls
old balls
...and so on and so on...while a new opportunity arises for the breast exam and treatment/diagnosis firms to really work on variations of breast and nipple...
oh happy day!
When has anyone ever really been pissed off at being a honkey... I mean c'mon - somebody's having a manloaf over nothing.
I heard "customer service" was also banned.
Come now. These people have our best interests at heart. They know us better than we know ourselves. We are our own worst enemies. Father knows best. Be a good German and stop Welshing or you'll Scotch the whole deal, and that would be a fucking gyp. If these folks jew me down any further I'll be an Indian giver.
Oh, no. I made racism happen. Thank a generic and inoffensive God for Verizon. Oh, and fuck their filthy asses with a splintered stick of kindling.
So the number 5 is banned, but strangely enough the number 69 is still allowed. Strange. But yeah, this is ridiculous. It's like Verizon paid off grade 3 kids as moles to identify what words their peers use as insults so they can ban them.
5 is banned? I live in San Francisco--area code 415. Does this mean that I can't get Verizon service any more? oh noes!
How exactly is that "5" alphabetized?
H ... I ... J ... 5 ... K ... L ...
WTF??
you cant use the word slang? thats so oh wait i cant say that also .
the letters J, K, and L on a phone keypad correspond to the "5 key." Perhaps that's how they "alphabetized" the list. In case anyone other than Eyebrows was wondering...
