it's the level of vulgarity you'd expect from a guy called S***ov.
But seriously, it's nothing you won't see on basic cable or the Linux
Kernel mailing list.

I really like this guys style of writing and examples
for Perl6.
But he can be a bit vulgar at times, which I ignore.
Is he doing it on purpose?
Todd, I took a quick glance at the link you gave and all I saw was
reference to the Brain* language (whose author I believe should be
ashamed of himself for that name--something like "Braincramp" would
have been better).
I have all Andrew's books and read many of his blogs and never noticed
any trend of vulgarity (which, I too, am sensitive to). I do see
evidence of several Perl and Raku people whose speech can sometimes be
quite crude and blasphemous, but I'm afraid that's the modern world:
good manners and civility have all but disappeared in public places. I
will say, though, that the #Raku IRC channel has much less coarse
lingo and much more kindness than most other places I visit.
I have had several email conversations with Andrew and he seems like a
nice person to me. I sometimes think non-native English speakers pick
up bad speech habits because of the absolutely sewer-mouthed "popular"
folks on Twitter.
Best regards,
-Tom
