It's a fine line remaining hip and relevant, while appeasing the grouchy. 。
Typo is treading one such line -- balancing between being attention-grabbing and not offending parents of young kids. Like, by covering merchandise with swear words for example. 。

Thanks for signing up!。 One complainant took issue with a notebook emblazoned with the phrase "F*ck it. Let's Disco!" telling the 。Herald Sun 。

The stationery stores have since modified a handful of the "offensive" products with bright yellow censored stickers. 。
A spokesperson for the brand sort-of apologised for the incident, saying "whilst some of our products are more irreverent than others, we do appreciate that as a gift retailer, our customers fall either side of our target audience of 18-35 so where relevant we use censor stickers on products not appropriate for a younger audience."

Comments have started piling up at Typo's Facebook page, with many laughing off the complaints and applauding the company's carefully crafted apology. 。On and on the outrage cycle spins.
