stopwords

What I would like to do (in Clojure):

For example, I have a vector of words that need to be removed:

(def forbidden-words [":)" "the" "." "," " " ...many more...])

... and a vector of strings:

(def strings ["the movie list" "this.is.a.string" "haha :)" ...many more...])

So, each forbidden word should be removed from each string, and the result, in this case, would be: ["movie list" "thisisastring" "haha"].

How to do this ?
