Actually, profanity in comments *can* be interesting. It's
not interesting if it's from a programmer who utters the
word fuck in every fifth word he speaks. But a rant in which
the programmer reliefs his frustration (because of himself,
of some not well thought through API, or about some ambigious
worded spec/RFC/standard) can be very nice to read. If it
contains profanity, so be it.
But then, I like to read the scary devil monastry as well.
