Apple has had to tweak a web page to make 'click' look less rude

Oh, grow up

Apple has had to tweak a web page to make 'click' look less rude
26 February 2016

Cats and naked people. That's what the internet is for, right?

It might explain why Apple has had to alter a seemingly innocent phrase on its website: an awkward kerning issue that saw too many mucky minds take an hilarious Freudian slip.

A page for Apple's OS X El Capitan held the seemingly innocuous statement: "There’s more to love with every click". But lack of spacing and a grey-white background caused the word 'click' to look a little bit too much like 'dick' - which somewhat changes the tone of the sentence.

By way of solution, Apple added some extra space to allow the letters of 'click' to breath a little more freely - and to pull everyone's mind from the gutter.

Now, stop giggling. You look like a right click.
