Aww Futs!

You can say it, but don't write it:

A SNACK called Nuckin Futs will go on sale after a lawyer's successful argument that the word "f..." is a normal part of Australian speech and so cannot be deemed offensive under trademark rules.


"the word 'f...'"

Fair?

Fund?

Fish?

What is this word which is a normal part of the language, and why can it not be printed?

If only "irony" began with an "f".

Fuel? Fans? Fare?Fast? Farm? Man, I can't think of a four letter word that begins with F that they were afraid to print. Man this is a real puzzler. I know one of these days it will fucking come to me.
