Which words or names qualify for asterixation?

F**k if I know.

Here is one list, but I don’t know how old it is.

I am not sure especially since “rude” varies with which side of the pond you are on.

However, I know that the asterisk is sometimes also used to avoid copyright/trademark infringement.

I’m afraid I feel bound let you know that the word is (and is pronounced) asterisk.

@Jeruba It’s his question, and he can ax it however he wants! :D

@jeruba’s right of course. Who would date to contradict Fluther’s p**ative head of grammatical an**ysts? I’ll p**s.

@6rant6 Date? I think you mean dare. When it comes to grammar, you really are not any compet*tion for her.

W*rk.
