Complaining about ‘dick’ being censored in the dog and a plane opening is insane. Anyone ever heard of bleeping being used for comedic effect
Bleeping for comedy is honesty not common for me. In fact bleeping in itself is not common where I am from. That it could be being used for comedic effect didn’t occur to me because I cannot remember the last time I encountered it used that way. I’ll keep that in mind for the next episode.
For further context:
Firstly, the Thai slang word Toto is using is considered a very vulgar term. C*ck would have been a closer translation than d*ck, though it still doesn't quite match the level of vulgarity Toto is demonstrating.
Secondly, the repeated bleeping is done for comedic effect to emphasize how casually Toto is throwing around swearwords, showing his lower-class background, which, as I mentioned in another post, might not be apparent to non-Thai viewers but is quite stereotypical for Thai rescue workers.
Thank you for the context, and I wonder if it is this word, that I saw in a shop window in Australia.
I thought “I know all those letters but I don’t know that word” so I google translated it. But my phone was on super loud and I was holding it sideways so it just yelled “dick” at everyone while the word “dick” in giant letters took up the entirety of my screen.
