This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Man, regex is really not the tool for the job here is it?

What? it looks fine to me, outside of the general difficulty of reading regex. I mean, it's not meant to be readable, it's meant to catch all the different spellings if what they want to filter and do so.

That's sorta my point, the complexity of regex isn't really warranted where a simple blocklist would suffice
