[ WP ] A new law is passed that states a particular phrase must be incorporated into every book , movie , TV show and poem

It was the late 1950's and the Federal Communications Commission ( FCC ) started to regulate the television broadcasters. The obligation of each broadcaster provided that the broadcast must serve the interest of the community in which any signal was broadcast. 
 
 Bob was one who loved rules and regulations, reading and studying, looking for loopholes and misprints. He was a collector of sorts. 
 
 Today was not a good day. Although he read regulations for fun, it was more tedious to read and understand the rules and the workings of the relationships of those rules for work. This was his dream job, but today was a hard day. Bob looked at the clock. He was just assigned to the RKO case and was just brushing up on the rules and regulations. So much paperwork, too many rules; reading them on his own, as a hobby was completely different from reading them because he HAD to; it took all the fun out. He walked over to the mini-bar in his office and poured himself a scotch and then lit his eighteenth cigarette of the day. He threw back the scotch in one shot, grabbed his coat and walked out the door. 
 
 The next day, while in the shower, he found his mind wandering. What if someone said “ damn ” on television? He'd be fired. What happened if Lucy's pregnant belly were to show; it would n't be his fault, we did n't work for Desi-Lu. What if some rich white senator used a racial slur on camera? What if someone said an offensive word? 
 
 Offensive word. What words are there? The words are: shit, piss, fuck, cunt, cocksucker, motherfucker, and tits. What did they want? The FCC wanted to bleep them out. Bleep them out? What? That ruins the artistic integrity of the program. How can we substitute those words with something else that does n't … hmmm. 
 
 Bob thought about it for a few days. He figured out that you can not just bleep the words because it takes away from the show. BLEEEEEEPPPP! It rips the viewer from the script and plunges them into a train of thought wherein they begin to wonder what was actually said during the bleep? What could we use to counteract this? 
 
 Taking this a bit further, Bob realized that he would have to censor other words, words that are not swear words, just to give a sort-of consistency to the script – if you bleep only swear words, then little kids will research to find out what was bleeped – so we need to bleep words that are not swear words, just to be a little consistent with language and flow. 
 
 But what can we do? Bleep does n't really work. 
 
 And then Bob had an epiphany. He would be able to re-write the scripts so that every time the main characters were fucked and something offensive was about to happen, the on-screen character would scream “ We've got company! ” instead. And that is what Bob did; he wrote the new rule. 
 
 This is Bob's legacy. Sixty years later and every book, movie, TV show and poem now has this goddamn phrase in it. We've got company!
