IA. On a similar note, I've never understood how bleeping out profanity somehow makes a song 'clean'. Everyone knows what goes there. Or is it not an automatic response for everyone to insert the word in your head anyway? Sometimes taking the time to think about exactly what it might be?

Also, if something is censored out, people minds tend to go to the worse. So if a mild swear like "damn" is bleeped out - people will probably substitute something harsher.

For instance, I was watching a subtitled anime what mentioned the catbus. The words were censored with a cat mewing but the subtitles censored it as "c*tbus", which I read before the cat mewed and...yeah...

it's for children who have never heard certain words before and thus don't know "what goes there." that's what i think of it as, anyway.

da

Yeah, I'm pretty sure.

It becomes 'clean' because the offending word isn't being said? I'm not sure what's so difficult to get about this concept.

This reminds me of how various radio stations played a version of the song "Pumped Up Kicks" that had the words "gun" and "bullet" bleeped out/silenced, and I always had a great time coming up with words to fill in those blanks.

This extreme kind of censoring of songs on the radio always reminds me of the "radio edit" of My Chemical Romance's Teenagers. Apparently the lines "But if you're troubled and hurt // What you got under your shirt // Will make them pay for the things that they did" were deemed too offensive to be on the air, but no one could figure out what needed to be bleeped out, because nothing was a curse word or even a word like "gun" or "bullet." I think they ended up taking out the word "pay," which is both ineffective and hilarious.
