Tasteless, Utterly Utterly Tasteless
Today was an especially busy day at work, so I had a quick lunch at my desk and surfed the web. After visiting my normal array of weblogs, I attempt to catch up on the northeastern adventures of Anime Amy. Much to my surprise, I was thwarted by our corporate content filter. Unlike last summer's filter at Stifel, Nicolaus, this particular one gives reasons why the website you're trying to visit is blocked. The reason it gave for Amy's was: "Filtered: Tasteless".
I thought maybe she used the word "tasteless" somewhere in her post about C2, but she didn't. The only conclusion I can draw is that this program used some sort of advanced -- dare I say "futuristic" -- AI algorithms to analyze the content of Amy's posts and calculated using Bayesian statistical methods that Amy has no taste.
Ha ha, just kiddin' Amy. If anyone has any idea why Amy's site is tasteless while this site, -273, Rubidium, Ouranophobe, and Smackie are not, I'd love to hear your theories.

I guess I'm not trying hard enough...

I guess I mentioned "Sex and the City"? Hey, just because SOME (i.e. the Festival) people list SATC as one of their nemeses, doesn't mean it's tasteless!

Perhaps it's just targeting livejournal.
