Pervasive Language

So apparently Sacha Baron Cohen's Bruno has been rated NC-17 by the MPAA, and if anyone wonders why the NC-17 is still taboo, the media sure doesn't help change this. Using verbs like "slapped" and "hit" by an NC-17 rating just aids the notion that the rating is a bad thing. Of course, the studio will adjust the film to get its desired under-17 crowd; I just wish online "journalists" could update their vocabulary.
