FEEDBURNER HATES FAGS
In an age of high-tech spammers, virtually every website, forum, even comments require you to complete a verification message to prove that you’re not a bot. Nobody likes doing ‘em. They’re small, cockeyed, faded or just difficult to differentiate between those blasted zeros and O’s.
Naturally, with all the random letters and numbers generated you’re bound to get an occasional word or phrase. But imagine my surprise when I got the verification message “u b fag” while using Feedburner’s email subscription service. Surely this was unintentional or was it?
You’d think a large company like Feedburner would have filtering software in place to prevent questionable words from being generated. I contacted Feedburner to inform them of this incident and asked if they had or intended to implement a filter to address such situations. Feedburner did not respond.

Maybe they don’t hate fags….
Could they be suggesting that you should be a fag. Everyone should go gay for a day…
Don’t knock it till ya try it.
You may be right,
I just read it as caveman speak,
but I guess we’ll never know since they still haven’t replied to my email.
