Google political correctness bite its stupidity. A Welsh cafe has advert for "faggots" pulled as conflicting with Google's policies. Google however will provide you with many recipes for making faggots for yourself.

A case of free homemade faggots is Ok but prostituted faggots aren't? LMAO
Google needs to internationalize their algorithms.
I was once bleeped in the IMDB message boards (may they rest in peace) for saying I was going on a canal boating holiday C-anal apparently contains a forbidden word
Faggot is a very useful word, a bundle of sticks for starting a fire is a faggot, an offal and bread crumb patty is a faggott, a disagreeable old woman is a faggot and a contraction of the first meaning a fag is a cigarette.
The origin of the American idiom is a charming play on the bundle of sticks meaning, as homosexuals were seen as something to be burned..how charming.

Heartbreaking!
I fondly remember walking down the street in Glasgow with a fellow exchange student and his reaction when a homeless gentleman asked (seeing that I was smoking) if I could spare a fag. I already knew British English and so I lent him one without batting an eyelid.
Interestingly I've only heard the term referencing cigarette butts and something to do with wood fires? So I'm perplexed by the food dish - but yikes?
Really they need a human to review things before they pull it. You know - maybe do a "Google search" first?
No different to the stupidity of my recent issues. Follow the Google link for recipes.
There is nothin to say other than “That little faggot he’s a millionaire”
Let’s remove all reference to Mark Knopfler from Google if Welsh cafes are to be victimised!
I think the reference was to Prince. Either way, though.
@Paul4747 No, it’s lyrics in Money For Nothing.
@Geoffrey51 Correct. The lyric was a reference to Prince, unless I'm much mistaken.
Yeah, buddy, that's his own hair.
@Paul4747 Okay. I know it’s pretty much a verbatim transcription of some delivery guys in a department store in America somewhere that Knopfler was listening in on, but don’t know about the specific performers referenced.
