See "man 7 regex". I would suggest something like:
(large.*penis|penis.*large)

However I doubt that this is really a wise mean of blocking unwanted
URLs. It's just nice for experimenting with ACLs and regular expressions
maybe. If you can spend money, then get a commercial URL blocker.
Otherwise try something like squidblock. Hacking your own regexps will
get you mad. Believe me - I've tried that. Muahahaha... ;)
