Looks like you're filtering NSFW words over to a picture of a pipe?

An interesting spinoff would be memes. Something like http://mebe.co/goodnews/I_just_fixed_the_build.jpg and it generates this: http://i.imgur.com/UR8Gbzb.jpg

and yes memes are trite/overdone/whatever, but there's a lot of people out there that use them.

I actually just finished a project for super-simple URL based meme generation: http://memeifier.com/

Your Professor Farnsworth example: http://memeifier.com/good_news/I_fixed_the_build/http:/i.img...

I'm happy to know I'm not the only one who tried searching for porn with this.

I also thought it would be handy to get the most relavent image given a URL, much like what happens when you paste a link into a facebook post; attempting to find the "logo" on the page or the high-res apple icons.

Yes! I love the idea of being able to find images that actually include the text you want. Even better if the image itself is relavent.

Actually I meant have it generate a meme image from the text you provided. Like all the other meme generators out there, but much more simple.
