Just wondering...

Why do I always crave salt when I've got bronchitis?  That really kinda freaks me out, sometimes.

*ponders*

Any ideas, Vicki?

Oh, Puh-LEEZ!!

This rating was determined based on the presence of the following words:

• hell (5x)
• bastard (4x)
• shit (2x)
• death (1x)

The last time I did this, my journal was rated PG-13, and this was based solely on the presence of 1 word.  Cum.  I have no idea where it was, and it made me blink.  I see that it is missing on this present list, and I find it amusing.  Where did it go?  Like everyone else, I suspect it was not able to look at f-locked posts, where my more explicit fics are, because otherwise, this rating's a bit low.  

Oh well, at least I'm no longer PG-13.  *snorts with amusement*

Just for grins...

I am dedicating this post towolfiekins...

His journal was rated NC-17, because he used the words gay, queer, lesbian, death, and murder.  The Husbandly One read this over my shoulder, frowned, then said, "I wonder what you have to do in order to get your journal rated X?"

I laughed and said, "I have no idea.  Use the word 'fuck' repeatedly?  Use the words tits, ass, cunt, um... oh, I don't know, dick, schlong, prick... or maybe just curse like a sailor on leave after a night of drinking and whoring?"

"Give it a try!" he said.

Like I NEED encouragement!

No, guys, I'm not going to do that, one, because that's just not me.  But it makes me wonder, if I un-locked one of my more explicit fics and then did that meme, would it change my rating?  Will the words I've written in this post, along with the words from Wolfie's post, change the rating?  If I add HOMOSEXUAL!!! will that change the rating?  

See, I'm wondering now what the criteria is for that particular meme's rating system.  I did it for fun, like everyone else, but when I saw the results from some of y'all's journals, I was sort of puzzled, and had to scratch my head.  When I saw the results from Wolfie's journal... well, that got me a bit riled.  As he said, he could have been writing about a Rogers and Hammerstein musical and gotten the same results.  

I know, I think way too much, but, like I said, things like that just make me wonder.  I'm a curious sort of person anyway.  

Let's see what happens...

The Proof is in the Pudding...

... and here it is, my new rating...

This rating was determined based on the presence of the following words:

• hell (6x)
• bastard (5x)
• shit (3x)
• gay (2x)
• tit (1x)

And all of this, because of my last post.  And as you can see, it was because of the words, gay, and tit.  Not queer, lesbian, or death.  Unless it just didn't want to count those.  You know, I've used the word "gay" in my journal many times.  I have a gay brother-in-law, after all, and I do write about both him and his partner many times.  Y'all know them as Uncle Scientist and Uncle Artist.  (I knowvicki_sine is laughing her head off, 'cause she knows them, too)

This has been an interesting experiment.  What do you think, Wolfie?
