How to disable certain phrases with Firefox? (10)

I want to disable certain phrases showing up when I load certain websites. Pure text ads which extensions like adblock won't catch. I know this is something you can specify in one of the .css files in your profile, but I forgot how and apparently the information on how to do that has been taken out of the official help pages.

Oh yeah, and if there's any way to use wildcards in this, I'd like to know, too.

"Certain Phrases"? What the fuck? What could be so horrible in text that you'd have to 'disable' it?

"5chan"

Okay. I'll have Squeeks set up a word filter which changes '5chan' and 'fivechan' into 'DONATE TO THOCK'.

Donate to Thock? The hell? What about DONATE TO SQUEEKS ?? I got my own damn server bills to worry about.

Privoxy (http://www.privoxy.org/) in additional to your usual popup/ad/annoyance blocking, has this feature that it can do string replacements, based on regexps, I think. Haven't played with it too much, but I once accidentally turned on some setting that made it do a lot of strange substitutions.
