    1. I remember reading a very lengthy and scholarly book about the development of the atomic bomb.  In the middle of it, there was the sentence, “It reaffirmed his view that the atomic bomb was shit.”

      That definitely jumped out at me.

      Should have said fecal matter, but shit does get the point across in fewer words. That probably saved like 20 cents on printing 1000 books.

      Making me read the paragraph to figure out what you’re talking about AND having the ends cut off is pure evil

      This looks like a pamphlet for the public or some sort of public educational book since it says “be sure your children are vaccinated.” In bold.

      Probably used the word “shit” because its plain language that people of all reading levels can understand how infections can spread.
