I just about fell out of my chair the first time I saw that, but I can’t say that I’m now shocked by seeing the expletive in an abstract.

I’m thinking the word we’re discussing would be a good title for a linguistics paper, one that, for all I know, has already been written. I’ve heard that “jack” is the most overworked word in the English language, i.e., the one that can be and is used in the most ways, but methinks anybody seriously claiming that doesn’t know, um, WTF they’re talking about (as said linguistics paper would prove) . . .

But I have to admit, after reading the abstract, I’m intrigued and I want to read the whole thing.

Also, the term “f*** jurisprudence” has probably never been used before, except as an expletive in a crowded bar full of lawyers.
