This being an org and an au etc, and open to the possibility that there are
behaviours considered appropriate here that might fall foul of the
aesthetics of other more advanced beings in other more advanced places, is
there any chance that we could govern the language considered acceptable
here based on something slightly more in keeping with the poor unfortunate
colonials hereabouts, like say the language allowed on commercial free to
air television in Australia before say, 8.30pm?


Unfortunately I don't receive legible television broadcasts[1] (and
certainly nothing that screens prior to 8:30pm), and I don't fraternize to a
significant extent with my fellow poor unfortunate colonials, so I was
wondering whether you could divulge a more straightforward clarification
using less bewilderingly obfuscated referential terminology.

No worries with the big words though, they're beaut.
