penis.js

Sure. It's not the coarse language that I object to — it's the lazy, juvenile humour. It's similar to penisJS[0] — a software analogue to children defacing the chairs in their school classrooms with drawings of genitalia. I think it's a pretty bad look for the industry. Not to say there shouldn't be humour — there should be more humour. Personally, my most popular software projects are purely comedic, and they're also a little more coarse than this. To put it another way: I'd prefer the software humour to be a little more Sean Lock and a little less Beavis and Butt-Head. [0]: https://github.com/edankwan/penis.js/

There are a lot of busybodies on Github, sometimes these go viral on Twitter and other locations for the heated discussions. Here's a small collection of various levels of offence. Some are merely polite requests and some are "horribly offended". I think one or two of them may even be concern trolls but that doesn't matter since they still got the changes made. There are a few hundred other examples to pull from, these are just a few I chose at random while trying to select ones that are more about the code, or terms used in the code, than contributors or maintainers of the code.
