Truly offensive files should be removed with a snippet rather than a
funnily named phase.  I'm not sure if this applies to all of off, but
let it be said, that there's plenty of fortunes that'd violate the CoC
in files not labeled as such.  Some files could probably be salvaged if
we only removed some quotes – for example limericks about numbers are
probably fine, but other limericks aren't.  Furthermore, we should also
revise the list of fortunes not in off, men-women is just an alternate
spelling of sexism.

Cheers
