Also applies to school, of course. Usually, even being caught visiting casual sites like Website/YouTube, Website/{{Facebook}}, or Dailybooth can get you in pretty big trouble there; being caught looking at anything deemed "pornographic" can result in suspension of technology access, a trip to the (vice)[[note]]heheh, he said "vice"[[/note]] principal's office, detention, suspension, or even expulsion. When it comes to school, anything crude or distracting from the educational experience (though the latter may be relaxed during breaks and lunch) qualifies for this trope, in addition to the above.

Also particularly helpful to parents who are at home - some people do have small children and still find time to netsurf. These same people like to have a warning to wait until the children are in another room before clicking a link.

It does NOT stand for "'''N'''ow '''S'''how to '''F'''riends and co-'''W'''orkers," no matter what the local {{troll}} may say.

* [[OlderThanSteam This trope dates back to at least 1594.]] The English translation of ''Examen de Ingenios, The Examination of mens Wits'', a book on physiology and psychology, has a warning opposite a section on procreation that "This is no chapter for maids to read in sight of others."

A common internet warning, abbreviated as NSFW, usually denoting a picture or video that you wouldn't want to show up when you are surfing the web at work. It's one thing to look up the latest news, check your email or [[PlayingGamesAtWork play]] TabletopGame/{{Solitaire}}. It's another to be looking at UsefulNotes/{{porn|ography}}. Anything with nudity or partial nudity in it at all will often be labelled thus, on the off chance that a passing observer simply ''thinks'' you might be looking at porn.

So called because if you are caught reading these pages while at work, you can get in a LOT of trouble. For the more graphic [=NSFW=] pages, simply having them in the hard drive or cache of a work computer can get you fired. Even showing up in the server log files could be unhealthy.

NSFW is also frequently applied to overly vulgar, violent, and crude content. Also applied as a near-synonym for {{Squick}}. It may also be applied if the link requires sound, as not everyone has headphones at work (or should be wearing headphones, depending on the job).

* {{Filth}}, in general
* ''Film/FarmSluts,'' which is about a man whose life is ruined by looking up extreme pornography at work.
* This trope gets a name-drop in ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV'' during the mission "Friend Request", where Michael has to do a pop-up clicking minigame for Rickie Luckens because he got a virus after clicking a "totally NSFW link".
* ''Webcomic/{{Curtailed}}'' does occasionally descend into NSFW status. For instance, [[http://www.curtailedcomic.com/comic/sketchbook-nsfw/ this sketchbook entry]], which features, among other things, [[NoOSHACompliance a disconnected fire alarm and spilled marbles on the floor]].
* In ''VideoGame/Injustice2'', a possible opening battle dialog between Injustice!Batman and Injustice!Harley is that the latter had a NSFW dream with the Joker.
* Inverted by a book giving children various tips and "cheats" to get through school (memorization aids, easy arithmetic tricks, etc.): the front cover included a flash saying "WARNING: this book is not suitable for adults".
* The ''WesternAnimation/{{Zootopia}}'' Website/DeviantArt fancomic ''Savage Company'' has a page where DaChief reads Nick's search history aloud. It starts off innocuous enough, but then degenerates into NSFW searches.
* This ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'' NSFW [[https://www.deviantart.com/hero-t/art/NSFW-Tails-and-Cosmo-image-789528197 fanart of Tails and Cosmo]]. [[spoiler:It's just Cosmo pushing a rolling chair Tails is standing up in. [[LiterallyMinded Literally]] not safe for work!]]
