    Sure, but it’s understandable that there would be a misunderstanding in an interaction like that. Something like “this kind of language is not appropriate here at nasa”, or simply “this is unprofessional”.

      That’s what the first reply was saying. Someone ready to work at NASA would do a cursory Google, or know who Homer Hickam is in the first place lol.

      “Language” was carrying a lot of extra weight.

          Especially in an Internet setting where that’s the cultural norm. At work it’s different, but the internet is casual and defiant

            Yeah, it doesn’t even sound that out of place in informal conversation.
