Commonly known as the Scunthorpe problem
I seem to recall this kid getting banned from facebook bc his real name was batman suparman
This is seriously one of the funniest things I've ever read. Like gosh, I'd recommend everyone give that article a full read. I couldn't even get mad at the stupidity. I'm bookmarking this to read again when I have a bad day.
Buttbuttinate sounds like one of those stupid censored words like unalive, grape...
There's a lot of gems here

I see this all the time in Elden Ring. So many players want the word "Knight" in their name but it just ends up rendering as "K***ht". Also the substring "ho" comes up a lot and is censored.
These days they won't let knights say Ni
Two or three services blacklisted something in my username, Lyra Lycan. To this day I never found out what, why or which language
Took me a very long time to understand why my go to, Scooter, was being blocked... extra harsh filter catching "cooter" was the culprit. Only discovered because something just * the string so my name was S******
