THESE WORDS ARE NOT JUSTICE DEPARTMENT APPROVED

[thedreamisdead]

[Someone's been doing some reading in her off-time. After a bit of discussion with unnamed parties, a change suddenly goes into effect in the networks. Suddenly, all profanity on the networks, as well as clever attempts to dance around said profanity by spacing it out, switching to a foreign language, or using symbols, has been replaced by cutesy terms such as gently caressing, lovely, fluffy bunny, sweater sniffer, and kitten huffing. And more along those lines.

It goes through on voice and video, as well, updating the Legionnaire's words in real time. Any attempts to mouth it out or write it down has a United Planets logo stamped over the offending words, as well as a short snippet of text underneath the logo explaining that they're in violation of the Government Agency Profanity Prohibition Act of 2917. It's an archaic law, over a hundred years old, that never quite got repealed. It tried to push professionalism by banning profane and blasphemous language within official channels.

For her part, America's pleased to watch the chaos happen. She's sitting back in her room, popping salted blurple berries into her mouth, and waiting. It probably won't last long before someone resets the entire network or convinces Brainiac 5 to undo her silent partner's work, but it would be entertaining and informative to see how far her teammates take things.]

That's a great idea!

But wouldn't that get people to curse more?

[Asks the young man who grew up thinking of someone else before himself.]

[How are you real, Kubo?]

It's usually seen more as a punishment. If people want to give money to charities, they don't have to wait to curse to do it.

[A Series of Events, both Fortunate and Unfortunate.]

I guess that's true. But I like the idea. Maybe I'll make one for my home. Then Dave will owe some charities some money.

[And he'll make fun of Dave in a way that is very brotherly. Right? That's probably what brothers do.]

Give him my regards when he learns about it.
