    Seems like you might have fallen victim to the Scunthorpe Problem. I'm sure you can guess what word they were trying to censor there....

    Didn't know it had a name.
    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.

    It was like that when i got here. But a shiny well polished hook glistening in the daylight raises an eyebrow.

    No, that would be carbon monoxide. Mine is a carbon dioxide detector.

    The one on the left is a carbon monooxid detector. The one on the right als. But if you combine two carbon monooxide detectors, they’ll become a carbon dioxide detector!

    It's common here in Malaysia for baby cradle swing or baby bouncer or baby rocker. The hook on the ceiling is attached to the cradle with a spring. Now my mind is dirtied by this meme.

    We always just hung plants from them.

    That or a Sky Chair, though ironically they kinda look like sex swings on their own.

    I used to have two smoke detectors one right next to the other. One came with the house, the other was linked to the alarm system.

    Hang Olympic rings from them!

    What's funny is that I actually had a pair in my livingroom that was actually used to hang Olympic rings!

    I installed a hook in my living room ceiling but it was genuinely meant to hang my heavy bag for training. Now I'm wondering how many guests think that I do sex hook sex in the living room (where I don't even have curtains.)
