my blacklist
first of all, i'm in a semi-serious state when the second bottle of sparkling wine demolished my politeness but i'm still not in a berzerker mode, so it's an "i don't give a shirt* who cares, i'm just fed up with the general ignorance of the human beings"
so, my current candidates to be on the top of my blacklist:
1. anybody who thinks the term "blacklist" is racist, but doesn't support to wipe out nigeria and montenegro from the maps
2. anybody who thinks the "xyz is well worth a mass" idiom means "it's worth to speak about it". it's a very common mistake in hungary. seriously, these horse-f*cker huns never learnt civilazition? if you drink an excellent wine, you can say that you could betray your personal believes for that bottle, but a meaningless jibber-jabber about something perishable whim is not worth for anything. especially not selling your faith. otoh, a good wine does, of course
3. those fucking morons who make lists. needless to say
cheers, comrades, i miss you so much!
* edit: i see, the cenzorship of the admins works perfectly

Colors...
Hey there,
Wine can be red, white, rosé etc...
Where there's black invariably there's white as well. Examples:
Black Lists ; White Lies
Black Mass ; White Christmas
Blackball ; Whitewash
Black Lingerie ; White Skin
(Black) Africa ; (White) Settlers
(Black) Demons ; (White) Angels
(Black) Print ; (White) Background

So far so good; just one distant exception involving you... By the way, I much prefer seeing the present Administrators collectively taking care of such rare business than some Moderator(s) !

Did I miss something ...?

Addendum
Hey there,
1) My free associations re: Black vs. White were triggered by Csaba's references to blacklists, Nigeria and Montenegro...
2) My commentary re: Forum Censorship was intended to be quite general in scope and was triggered by Csaba's contextual humor. This is a relatively new forum and, hence, the lucky beneficiary of avoiding past "iffy" experiences associated with other Web venues...

Re: my blacklist
actually i had just tested the phpbb forum engine in 2019, and had defined a few cenzored expressions based on the good place tv series, where people couldn't use curse words in their afterlives, and i completely forgot it later, so it surprised me too seeing it in action of course, we can deactivate this module anytime, if vox populi says soHexCode wrote: ↑2020-10-11 19:53, Sunday2) My commentary re: Forum Censorship was intended to be quite general in scope and was triggered by Csaba's contextual humor.

this morning i woke up with a bad headache (must be a coincidence) and i drank a cup of black coffe with white cream
Re: my blacklist
since he mentioned it - nothing to do with me - along with many things not so clear to me, including horses and love... ......
....for other readers it is actually old joke for Montenegro (no idea if Csaba knew it anyway) and internal joke calling them Monteniggers and they also had music band of the name etc. I use it sometimes, not to mentioned loved expression of banana states (for many actually)) BUT guess i should be more careful and mindful of new sensibilities, esp internationally, hm-hmm...
(feel for poor benign fruit got both sexual and racist ties without any guilt on its side))

Re: my blacklist
found some youtube videos, that's definitely not the laibach style
there is a hungarian expression about the ancient hun(garian)s living their entire lives by riding on horses, we say "they softened the meat under the saddle". the generic interpretation is that just like many other tribes living on the steppe, our ancestors prepared their meals for cooking while riding on horses, but i simply can't refuse the very trivial and naughty sexual connotations

Connotations...
Csaba,
I'm pleased to see that your new work project hasn't dampened your sense of humor.
Connotation #1 : We got to eat something reasonably edible...
Connotation #2 : (Some ?) disagreeable females can be softened...
Connotation #3 : (Some ?) conquered / occupied peoples can be rendered less unruly...
Feel free to add !

Not unexpectedly (i.e., the Eurasian Steppe Migrations), this saying is present in Turkish language usage too.

Re: my blacklist
in moment of boredom ...it was not Csaba intention (only he knows what was)) but for fun as i joked about it around and he doesn't care - more on historical implications of "black" and "white" attributes in own tribe/nation, lightly speaking...
first look from Italian eyes (Montenegro as geographical name is btw their creation coinciding fall of medieval Rascia (roughly) as region was both for Serbs and Italians known as Doclea or Zeta before) So example: Montenegro i.e. Black Hills vs Albania i.e. White lands
from Turkish eyes: Black George (national hero Karageorge) vs ....will have to think what was white for them, except Arabic dresses
from Serb eyes: White city (Belgrade) vs many geographical places with black- prefix in southern regions.... Kosovo is "blackbird field" but only in English though .... or Black Chetniks / "White" Chetniks (ww2 divide) or Black Hand & White Hand (some kings counter organisation) etc.
generally, for history lovers, it seems that black was often atributed to Serbs in many eras, was it due to geography, dressing habits, behaviour, fear factor or mentality or fighting spirit (rarely maybe even darker hair, beards or sun washed skin in instances). interesting for cultural research. of course blacks and darker skinned shouldn't be paranoid as "black" was often used as something reperesenting something fearsome or dark as night... i'm out of it, already known that i like details

A completely out of the correct topic musical interlude that may even so have a tiny bit to do with what's on subject here...
Please feel free to take the opportunity to "oil" your communication systems (I mean the organic parts) with whatever liquids may be of your best preferences.
PS of course it could have also been something from Black Sabbath and White Snake...

If I got the issue well enough the thing doesn't actually stop at the black and white "dicotomy".
There's a Portuguese popular expression that goes like "saiste-me um grande macaco".
In English it would be something like "you've turned out to be a great monkey".
Just go to some suburban neighbourhoods around here, especially those that serve as "sleeping quarters" to Lisbon, say that aloud and you'll be sliced and grilled.
Yet, that long existing expression is an allusion to the sense of sageness traditionally associated with monkeys.
It actually should read "you've been quite a smart guy"...

Re: my blacklist
That is one of the most recent things to have taken a gigantic tumble down the scale of the "socially acceptable actions"...
