Impossible.

What is inappropriate or indecent to you, 
can be quite appropriate or decent to me.

Even if you take only yourself as a guide, 
are you an expert on what you think to be so
in the sense that you can make an 
inclusive list of what to expect?

Perhaps neural network code or babesian code could learn from your 
reactions of real world experiences in due time [10 years or so?]

What abbreviations are offensive btw, surely that depends on context.

["btw" is value added tax over here, in some contexts, that is offensive]

Methinks "abbrevs" is unneccesarily offensive in a sexual and racist way, 
do you?
