Offensive language
Colourful language provides a lot of the comedy in the first episode. A number of characters tell people to “f*ck off”, “f*ck it”, and use “f*cking” for emphasis. There are funny scenes where characters swear a lot because they’re annoyed at the situation or a person: statements such as "suck his dick Greta Gerwig", “masturbating f*cknerds”, and “f*ck-clump cosmic anus human hambone prick.”
