I'd probably do something like have them check the words in disbelief and then say something to the effect of "Well, that's offensive," and then charge for racially offensive spelling errors or something.
I'm trying to get back to my current mission, and was just reminded of why I put it aside for a break.
At the current point, Indiana Jones and our Sue are going through a poorly-written set of traps. A repeated spelling error is replacing the spikes in the floor with an ethnic slur. My first reaction is to just skip this one -- I don't find ethnic "jokes" of this kind funny, and there's plenty of other spelling errors to pick from. On the other hand, I can't charge for the offense if I don't include it, and I'd really like to charge for this.
Anyone have ideas?

... have them say so. You don't even have to print it if you don't want - I'm pretty sure I had Dafydd and Constance discussing the Goblin King's pet chicken during Clbr__n. People will either figure out what you mean, or just assume It Is Bad.

You don't have to explicitly state what the spelling error is, even. Just say that it manifests as a racial slur and have the agents comment on it.
