    Really? Interesting behavior, you're the sir-ing DoD?! Of course I'm concerned about language civility in an organization devoted to making as many corpses as possible. I see, do you see? I don't think you understand.

    when I left my fun (but shit pay/no healthcare) outdoor physical labor job, I had to condition myself to a completely new set of phrases some might construe as "professional". I knew a guy who would respond to clusterfucks with a monotone "incredible" but if something was really indefensibly insane he would just say, flatly, "interesting". outside of work, he was much more expressive, but it can be a kind of amusing game to see how much of a flat affect and reserved demeanor one can maintain during the reveal of surreal corruption and incompetence. like who can keep a calm exterior going and trying to get others who recognize the absurdity to laugh first.

    makes me think of some scene from Ozark where Marty (the master of this) responds to some batshit admission with just the word "dynamite" in complete monotone.

      I toned down my language after switching from construction and wrecking yards to indoor jobs and still can't keep it under control lmao

      I just contaminate everywhere I work now instead.
