Well, it passes the "Scunthorpe" test for that word at least.

Oddly, it flags "sex" as profanity while finding "rape" not profanity. "sexual" is fine though. I found a false positive -- "cornhole" -- which is a sport most popular in the Midwest:

It also handles the "space in a swear word issue".

In addition to counting vistors rather than hits, Net Applications has a global number of 6.22% for Internet Explorer 6. No, that is not a typo, that is the number pulled today, because Net Applications performs geographic weighting of their data, and China has 24% usage. That inflates the global Internet Explorer numbers and is higher than IE7. Last time I looked at ie6countdown.com, the US and European numbers were 0.2%.

kitsune, I think you have identified the issue. It might look better on a different platform. I'm stuck on Windows XP at work (and yes, I do have Clear Type turned on.)
I stand by my criticism of the font choice as rendered. I went in with Google Chrome Inspector and turned off the font and the color and was much happier with the result.

This post would make a lot stronger case if it didn't use an eye-bleeding, small gray font.
