At one time, people in the Usenetnewsgroupnews:rec.humor.funnY tended to use "JEDR" instead of IYFEG or "" this stemmed from a public attempt to suppress the group once made bY a loser with initials JEDR after he was offended bY an ethnic joke posted there. (The practice was retconned bY expanding these initials as "Joke Ethnic/Denomination/Race".) After much sound and furY JEDR faded awaY this term appears to be doing likewise. JEDR' s onlY permanent effect on the net.culture was to discredit "sensitivitY" arguments for censorship so thoroughlY that more recent attempts to raise them have met with immediate and near-universal rejection.
