Profanity Adventures - A nostalgic look at what used to happen when you tried typing swear words into text adventures

"Theres a lot of websites dedicated to 8 bit gaming about. Some have shots from the game complete screens, whilst others have maps, cheats and interviews with grown men who at one point felt fit to use their mathematical expertise in order to make a worm simulator. I felt, however, that there was one thing which (as far as I'm aware) has never been celebrated.... swearing on text adventures. I typed in swear words into as many games on the Spectrum 48k as i could find, and below are the ones which understood - which a pleasing amount did... as, let's face it, the authors knew that most people would try it at some point when they'd gotten frustrated with the distinct lack of fun on offer."

Lots of screen captures at the link.
