On: Ask HN: Do you swear in your code?

This is a line from our tag unit tests: @tag.name = "this is a really long tag name that exceeds the maximum length which is set at 65 characters, that should do it! no wait, we changed it to 128 so now it needs to be significantly longer so I guess I'll just throw some more text into here and maybe a gratuitous 'fuck' for the next time someone greps for the f-bomb"

I'd enjoy seeing that in a long file of otherwise stale code. I like creative/surreal comments as well, if they fit the code.

That said, a sloppy file full of f-bombs can be annoying and repetitive, too.
