That once stopped me from registering a video game title. I was feeling silly so I figured I'd go for a nonsensical contrast. "Evil Grape" got rejected. After several failed attempts it eventually dawned on me that some dumb algorithm thought it was a reference to sexual violence. It kind of annoyed me but I just picked an other fruit. It wasn't until later that I considered that "Evil Banana" was probably more sexually evocative but it was too late by then. So if you're ever playing a video game and shoot (or get shot by) "Evil Banana", know that, if it weren't for the Scunthorpe Problem, it could have been "Evil Grape," but either way, it wasn't intended as a sexual reference at all. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [+] superkret@feddit.de 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent [–] ZiemekZ@lemm.ee 8 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children) Obligatory Tom Scott video featuring similarly problematic city name, Penistone. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago "And because nobody should ever have to go to Scunthorpe" 😂 permalink fedilink source parent [–] PipedLinkBot@feddit.rocks [B] 4 points 2 years ago Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/CcZdwX4noCE?si=YjLM8UnRpFl2Y6pd Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
