I have been watching Rick and Morty lately and every now and then I have to change the site to find a version of the episode I'm watching where swear words aren't censored. Like, it's a show made for adults full of violent and sexual themes, so I think that most viewers have heard the word "fuck" before. I hate it so much when people censor "bad words", even though nothing prevents them from saying them.
There's a bar in my area that has the TouchTunes jukebox set up to be censored. I'm an adult at a fucking bar and I can't listen to something with a swear word, ha ha.
God I worked at a bar that played NWA but with the naughty words bleeped out. It's a fucking bar! First of many problems with that place.
