In the profanity list in our mail server at work one of the phrases that are blocked for being profanity is "antique farm equipment". Anyone ever heard of this as being profanity? If so, from where did it originate?!

its a slur towards Blacks, as it is refering to Black Slaves.

The only reason I know it is because of some racial slur database.

So I Googled, and in the first 100 hits I see NO reference to "antique farm equipment" being used as a racial slur.

This is absurd.

Look at the letters in between the words.

"¡Que farme!" is one of the worst racial slurs you can say in Spanish.

For some reason AltaVista translates the single word 'farme' to "Officers' Club of Revolutionary Armed Forces to me". 😕

It's not a question, it's an exclamation. 'Que' is "that", 'Qué' is "what".
 
Yeah...I was bluffing guys. Sorry 😉

Babelfish says "¡Qué farme!" means "what Officers' Club of Revolutionary Armed Forces to me!"
