I've hear McCall cawing with such linguistic eloquence about his great
grandmother's pokadot blummers, that I've rewarded him a position in
a select list of orators whose blathering will never again reach my
screen.


When Musk announced this project, he said that they couldn't find a name
for it so were calling it "BFR" for now and said something akin to "I'll
let you guess what it means", so yes, everyone thinks it is big ****ing
rocket" in that context.


The 'F' in BFR is the same 'F' as in "RTFM".
