co*n (short for raccon) not sure why it came up like that
^^ Because of its sometimes racially derogatory connotation.
Certain words, when typed on this site, do appear in “#” characters - it’s a form of censorship.
For instance, a certain slang term for the external female genitalia will also appear as "####."
I know that there are others.
This is also why you’ll notice that some “naughty” words are spelled with spaces between each letter in the word, or the spelling may be altered – but in such a way that it is still recognizable.
Such practices enable the desired words to slip under the censorship radar and appear in all their glory.
