I still haven't tried it myself. But when I attempted to type the "n-word" earlier, I received a screen informing me of the presence of the offending term, and in the text of my message, the "n-word" was in boldface letters, so that I could find it easily. It would be safe to try the terms you're wondering about without accidentally posting them to the Forum, since you'll be stopped at that page and shown which terms aren't acceptable for a family audience.

Haha! That's one of the names my wife and I have for our cat. It started with her calling him "little butt". After that, it was just a matter of time before I came up with "tiny heinie", "gluteus minimus", "little ga'lute", and so forth. I'd say that these were "pet names" for the cat, but that seems pretty redundant. :-)
