There's a fun article by Eric Konigsberg at the New Yorker regarding a recent "scandalous" theme entry in a NY Times crossword puzzle:
http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/culture/2012/02/crossword-scandal-the-timess-mid-ass-touch.html (from Feb 10 2012).
Yes, you saw it right, they used "MIDASSTOUCH". Konigsberg reports that the entry SCUMBAG has been used during Will Shortz's reign, as well. I assure you that we will never use the latter word at World of Crosswords. I won't make any promises about ASS; that is a perfectly good word!
