Kyll is a beautiful little stream in Germany.

[–] ramjambamalam@lemmy.ca 22 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Wow, I'd love to Kyll myself on a hot, summer's day!

You might even use that opportunity and go on a Kylling spree.

That's a Scandinavian name for a type of fish, right?

It might need to be a rather hot river then.

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 3 days ago

No, the spree is a different river

Seggs, unalive, grape

I've also seen people use peach for porn. Why are advertisers such puritans?

[–] ramjambamalam@lemmy.ca 14 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I guess not too different from pr0n, h4x, etc. Maybe a tale as old as time?

[–] AlolanYoda@mander.xyz 6 points 4 days ago

True, I guess. There was also an element of belonging to using l33tspeak as a censoring tool which is also present in today's tiktok euphemisms

Looks to me like it's pronounced weed.

[–] Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

It's a content filter evasion for "weed". Trips me up every time one of my online friends uses it, I go "IUD? No that doesn't make sense. Ood from Doctor Who? Nah. Some kinda French thing? Oh yeah it's weed"

[–] lars@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 3 days ago

Weed was my first guess ,but I know Americans can’t pronounce written French for shit so I knew I was wrong lol. Thank you.
