Line 11:
* Parodied in ''[[Arfenhouse]] Teh Movie Too'', where one character says "ow" while the subtitle shows "FUCK!!!" struck out before it.
* Also parodied in [[The Angry Video Game Nerd (Web Video)|The Angry Video Game Nerd]]'s review of ''Action 52'', where they show a clip of the "TV Version" of the review:
{{quote| '''AVGN:''' "Whoever came up with this is an [[Bleep, Dammit!|ass[bleep]]]!... Ass!... Hole?... Ass[bleep]! [[Sarcasm Mode|Television makes a]] ''[[Sarcasm Mode|lot]]'' [[Sarcasm Mode|of sense.]]"}}
* Lampshaded in [[Paw Dugan]]'s ''Top 9 Composers'' video, where Paw is [[Trapped in TV Land|Trapped In Game Land]]. In the ''[[Wolfenstein 3D (Video Game)|Wolfenstein 3D]]'' portion, he comes upon Bowdlerized versions of the Hitler portraits and comments that something's missing. After a quick [[Fade Out]] and [[Fade In]], we see a crudely painted toothbrush mustache applied to the painting as Paw comments "Much better!"
* Forumer (a free internet forum provider) decided to update their TOS to become more child and general audiences friendly. They also decided to run a program that changed all sorts of words on ''every single Forumer forum'' to "work safe" alternatives. The change was based around cooking - for example, 'fuck' became 'bake'. But some of them were just bizarre. 'Little' was auto-changed to 'cilantro', 'video' was changed to 'recipe', 'girl' was changed to 'steak'...
