   It turns out that the Armenian alphabet has a letter “ս” that looks almost exactly like the Latin “u”. So you can write tսrd and only the very observant will notice that the “ս” is a little shorter than the “r”.

   I believe lowercase upsilon instead of the “u” camouflages a little better. tυrd.

   By the way, I checked with the intended word and the comment nanny is indeed working. What a bіtch.

   Hmmmm…. A moment ago I saw a comment on another strip (Big Nate) with a highly banned word. Maybe he tricked the comment nanny (for example using a Cyrillic letter), but I suspect they turned the nanny off.

   But interestingly the comment nanny allowed him to post it. Of course it could be that he tricked her by using a letter from a non-latin alphabet, but it could mean they turned the nanny off.

   Ok, I found the clip:

   It is indeed “shoulder of Orion”. Now, remember that the Orion constellation supposedly depicts a hunter, and he has two shoulders, on Betelgeuse and Bellatrix. Batty the replicant may be referring to either of those stars.

   Well, I was afraid I would not be able to remember the exact quote, so to be safe I copied it from IMDb. But on the other hand, the also make mistakes, so for all I know you may be right!

   The wreath on Clayton’s shirt temporarily transmuted into the logo he usually wears, but only for the third panel!

    I’ve seen things you people wouldn’t believe… Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion…  […]  All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain… Time to die.
