    I do have a feeling that this is how I'm going to lose the unicorn, but the money is too good to be scared. I emailed them asking about certain offensive words (specifically people dropping n-bombs in non-hostile ways), and whether the word itself should be considered, or the intent behind the word. Here is the reply I got:

    "Great question. This is a highly subjective matter with divergent opinions. We tend to take the latter approach: labelling based on perceived intent and on context, as we’d label any other profanity. It might help to also consider how other people in the conversation react (or don’t react, as it may be) to the use of the word."

    If ya gotta go, this is probably one of the best ways it could go down. I'm making an educated guess here but I think they use the same "you must agree with at least 80% of our answers" metric from the qual test for their spot checks.
    Ooh nice, that's good to know! Also helps to brush up on the lesser-known acronyms that show up there. kys = kill yourself, kms = kill myself.
    oh, and in a similar vein, finna = fixing to. :lol:

    Easily one of my favs lol.. when you say it out loud it translates the disgust/"GTFO" nature of the acronym.. really elevates it to its own tier of slang.

    You know you're aging when you can't just parse out slang acronyms anymore but need Google to be able to communicate online.

    When the first reply is something like "Go kys cuz I finna flip you, fam. JK LOLOLOL" and I see 100 similar replies after that I can't hit return fast enough.

    I have been cautious, but already I could see where I could have eaten a rejection. I feel like it's a matter of when and not if with these guys, but like you said, this is probably one of the better ways to lose it when the alternative is to let an amazing qual sit on the shelf.
