    Heh heh, Uranus.

    Seriously, what is up with the censors? Are we going to be bleeping the boring astronomers talking on NPR now? Probably not, since they’ll pronounce it yer-en-ess

    My favorite edit ever was in the censored version of “Sure Shot” by the Beastie Boys, which was a hit while I was DJ’ing at my college radio station. The words “gears I’m” in the phrase “Listen everybody ’cause I’m shifting gears/I’m fresh like Dougie when I set my specs” was bleeped, presumably because the label thought it said “jism.”
