Who knew that hosing a table with copious amounts of cubic metres would trip adult filters?

Re: Inside joke?

I had a fun afternoon once years ago testing out a spam filter. A mate working in another company had sent me an email from his work address about the christening of his offspring. I replied and I received a reply that my email was rejected owing to the "use of language" in it. I called him up and he said he had no idea what was going on. Eventually we narrowed it down to my saying I thought the choice of venue was "bad ass". We tried bad arse which also was rejected, as was arsed, pissed etc. I then spent what remained of that Friday afternoon with him and me sending emails finding out what words triggered their filter. I don't remember if we got round to cum but I doubt it.
