Another technique - some systems that won't obey "agent" or "operator" will detect angry "fuck"s and other curses 😂 and route you to a human. Apparently it's basically "Is this caller frustrated enough to make trouble?". I have found it to work a couple of times when nothing else did...

Do better #coders #swear more, or does C just do that to good #programmers?
To investigate, Strehmel pulled around 3,800 examples of #code containing swears, along with 7,600 examples of code that did not, from #GitHub. #SoftWipe revealed that on average, code containing swears scored about half a point higher on its 10- point scale of code quality than code that did not.

Almost 20 years old but still a classic --- the famous legal defense of the F-word

#WTAF is going on at #Facebook(#Meta)? People can post #naked #videos #and #pictures on Facebook, but don't you dare #swear because a #child might see!

If #children can see #curse #words on #FB, don't you think they might be able to see those #dirty #pictures as well?? I'd like to know why #Facebook is being so #stubborn about this!

No shortage of these words in my husband's woodworking studio most days (venting, venting, venting -- where is that drill bit, etc.) and I'm increasingly familiar with the F-word when things tumble off my coffee table or end-of-chaise stack of 'stuff' and paperwork. (smirk!)

Do swear words sound the same across languages? Do they *mean* the same things? Scientists ask the big fracking questions, and write up their findings in great detail! https://link.springer.com/article/10.3758/s13423-022-02202-0#Sec19
