| Warning: Language that may be considered offensive by some readers follows. |
| From the Tastes Like Chicken Interview:
INTERVIEWER: But what are the reasons behind keeping the site ad-free and making it clean enough for kids to view?
MIKE: It’s really just more of our style. ... It wasn’t a super hard decision to make. We probably would have been doing it like this anyway. We’ve always leaned toward the more subtle type of humor, as opposed to over-the-top. MATT: But when we get our sketch comedy show, dude, there’s going to be so many swears! |
Even given this attitude, there have been many examples of swearing on the website, both stated and implied.
Appearances
