    I apologize, but I must simply parse this most excellent post.

    They should be working on fucking planes that go into fucking space!

    Thanks to the wonderful diversity of the word fuck, I believe there are at least three acceptable interpretations of this sentence.

    1. The engineers should be fucking planes that go into space.
    2. The engineers should be creating planes that are capable of going into space and are capable of fucking people or things.
    3. The engineers should be creating planes that go into space.
