No it wouldn't. The first word makes the point clear right from the start.

- jgrahamc 17y agoI disagree. If you look at my comments on this site you will notice that I rarely use profanity. In this case, the claim the C was unsuitable for multi-threading coming, as it did, from someone as well known as Joel Spolsky merited a strong response. I could have responded: "I strongly disagree with the statement in the title of this Hacker News post. It is simply nonsensical". I decided to use the word 'bollocks' as a short-cut to that meaning. To quote Wikipedia, 'The word is often used figuratively in British English, as a noun to mean "nonsense",' I carefully decided to use that word.
