		<description><![CDATA[People called Laetitia or Massimo can't use their own names as user names on Lego.com. Why not? Because they're perverts. At least that's what Lego seems to think...]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At Lego.com, people with perfectly innocent names like Massimo or Laetitia are considered perverts.</p>
<p>As soon as your chosen user name contains certain, shall we say &#8216;improper&#8217;, letter combinations Lego delicately points this out to you. And then forces you to choose a different user name. </p>

<p>It&#8217;s good to be careful. Just don&#8217;t be too careful. </p>
<p>And ahem, Lego&#8230; if you&#8217;re really that worried about your squeaky clean image, maybe you should pick a figure with a less suggestively crooked smile. Just sayin&#8217;.</p>
<p>Many thanks to <a href="http://www.youreca.be/blog/">Anthony Bosschem of Youreca</a>, who put us on to this beauty.</p>
