Is this just a reference to The GIMP or are there other common apps with dodgy names? I'm struggling to think of any.
The app starting with K is probably a nod to how KDE names many of their projects something that starts with K. (Konsole, Kate, Kdenlive, Krita).
The litoris part probably refers to how linux apps often name things after random weird stuff, e.g. gimp, but it's not always genital/sexual related I guess.
Latex and that one other thing which I forgot
Latex is just a kind of rubber, and a material produced by some plants used for making rubber. Sure, if you're not careful when googling, you can get dodgy results with "latex" in the terms, but that seems to me to be of a different calibre.
LaTeX is the #1 Material used in fetish clothes. Its pretty much the only use for it.
I'm sorry what? What about:
All of these are made (partly) from natural (i.e. latex) rubber.
Latex wall paint
Yes I'm dumb, I didn't express myself well. I meant to say that its the most prominent use for it.
Hmm, fair enough but I would say latex gloves and latex condoms are equally prominent (the latter obviously not helpful as far as avoiding dodgy results on Google)
I suppose, maybe im indoctrinated, when somebody says Latex i think of fashion.
Maybe you need to accept our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, into your heart, to cleanse such sinful thinking!
(j/k if it's not obvious)
