# there was a game on the spectrum
with a little knight who had to do stuff IIRC and one of the things you had to pick up was some rowlocks for a boat. if you spelt it wrong, aha ha, on purpose then god came down and smote you.

which i thought was a little harsh

# I remember
on the BBC micro, that really crap Welcome game you got with it, the response to swearing was suitably middle class and haughty.. 'Please don't use that kind of language, it's not very nice and not clever'

But yes, I was suitably ashamed!

# There was one that reset itself if you swore.
But the programmer hadn't realised it was based on a feeble parser that only used the first four letters of each word. So if you typed 'BREAK WINDOW' it decided to crash on you.
