I've recently been watching episodes of the original "Lost In Space"
tv series.

So that's what I would naturaallys mention if I got on the radio since
it's my recent activities.

Except FCC amateur rules say nothing offensive is allowed to be said
over amateur radio.

Now, I myself don't find anything at all offensive about the original
"Lost in Space" tv show, which by
the way was a family tv show aimed at family audiences.

However, certain ham radio operators who were offended that the call
letters W5TIT were said over ham radio
because the last 3 letters are tit would also be offended by the
phrase"bubble-headed booby" being said over
ham radio
..
Or "blithering booby"

or even "the boob tube" which is what several people I personally know
always called tv sets back then.

Another classic tv show you can mention on cb, but can't on ham radio
because the same certain hams who get offended by the words

W5TIT", "bubble-headed booby", "blithering booby" and "boob tube" also
get offended by the words Hooterville" and Hootersville"

Ham radio is a dying hobby composed of mostly tightwad old
protestant or jewish white men who's usually can be found
getting sauced on cheap beer at the local VFW or Am Legion
Hall taproom during the daytime and raising crap on 40 or 75
meters when they get home. The average ham is 67 years old
so it will be about 10 years at the most before 75% of them are
taking a well-deserved dirt nap at the local cemetary. Just be sure
to check the obituary listings to see when these old *******s drop
from cancer due to excess smoking or liver disease due to excess
boozing. They you can clean out their ham radio gear for dirt cheap
from their widows who are glad to finally see their deceased hubby's
radio crap go out the door for often next to nothing. Listening to 40
meters during the daytime is like visiting the local senior care rest
home and 75 meters at night is like a huge on the air KKK meeting.
20 meters during the day is full of rich jews with boats on the
Intercostal
Waterway looking for free phone calls from sorry saps who offer them
phone patches. In a word, pathetic! Ham radio. Truly a throwback
hobby if there ever was one that needs to die off faster than
slower.

True, however some "hams" that allegedly post twisted sick pedo-
japanese lollicon
hentai pr0n cartoons on blogger dot com blogs along with their
callsign shamelessely as a 'subtle moniker' of their alleged approval
of the same trashy filth really does not help things very much for the
overall image of ham radio either. Not accusing or suggesting just
making a generalized point. (Those who feel guilty should be.) Cheers.
