This isn’t limited to swipe, they don’t auto-suggest either. Some of the phrases in the full world list are really innocent too:

- are some important

- fish finger(s)

- he’s hot

- is the worst

- sneak peak

- thank god

- you suck

Probably best that it doesn't do sneak peak since it's sneak peek.

Yeah, I just wonder how it got in the initial September 2020 list of explicit phrases?

A mistake or accident? A workaround for a swipe autocorrect bug? Or some really obscure slang, somehow ending up on their list of obscure phrases?

"Sneak peak" sounds like a new slang term for "sleeper hit."

Is "thank god" in there because it wants to capitalize God? That could help explain it, maybe?
