Whichever floats your boat unless you happen to be "on the Coq" aka the Coquihalla Highway and then it's pronounced "coke".

It's a problem with American derived profanity blocking software as many of the words that we find "offensive" are not to them and vice versa.
There are many examples i could cite but firstly that's not the purpose of this thread and secondly this one is probably the most fruitless of the censorship it creates as there are so many words in our version of English that use this word such as pea-, shuttle-, stop-, -erel (known as a rooster stateside), -tail and so the list goes on.
