Ask HN: Website name containing 'shit'. Bad idea?
Specifically shitlist.domain. Should I go for something less... conspicuous?

Anecdote: when I tried to buy AdWords for my "No BULLSHIT guide to math and physics" google said I needed a special permission.
Then I talked to someone on the phone and they said they cannot have shit in the advert, not on the page the user would go to after clicking --- the person on the phone said I should change the book title or use SH*T.
So yeah... prolly a bad ideas ...
Thanks!
Unless its a parody site, yeah, prolly not a great idea.
More like an "offenders" list.
Sounds like a lawsuit magnet then, so I'd suggest something a bit more neutral.
