A bug… debatably. This one is pretty innocent, but I could easily see worse words being spelled out: ![](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/6/e/6e4f14ea537b734a13a58746cd4ce2944cd7388a.png) ---

How is this any different than 5 users conspiring to use 5 different custom avatars that, on their own are innocuous, but when combined, show something naughty? It isn’t. ---

The only difference is the (presumably) accidental nature of this. Presumably nobody will get _too_ bent out of shape when they get a: ![P](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/letter_avatar/p/40/2.png) ![L](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/letter_avatar/l/40/2.png) ![U](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/letter_avatar/u/40/2.png) ![C](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/letter_avatar/c/40/2.png) ![K](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/letter_avatar/k/40/2.png) suddenly spelled out in the middle of the topic list if it’s accidental but it could happen. 😄 (scrabble tiles changed to protect potentially delicate ears of our users) ---

This reminds me of Office Space: > Samir: No one in this country can ever pronounce my name right. It’s not that hard: Na-ghee-na-na-jar. Nagheenanajar. > Michael Bolton: Yeah, well, at least your name isn’t Michael Bolton. > Samir: You know, there’s nothing wrong with that name. > Michael Bolton: There _was_ nothing wrong with it… until I was about twelve years old and that no-talent ass clown became famous and started winning Grammys. > Samir: Hmm… well, why don’t you just go by Mike instead of Michael? > Michael Bolton: No way! Why should I change? He’s the one who sucks. So… no way, why should we change cause the word sucks. ---
