"Scholars of filthy language—meaning both Ph.D. linguists and
enterprising middle-schoolers—will want to study the agile profanity of Veep’s
dialogue with Talmudic intensity. Iannucci (writing with Simon
Blackwell, among others) has a great ear for rhythmic invective and
withering insults. He may well be the Werner Von Braun of the F-bomb (to
use that euphemism that Meyer stiffly employs in front of her
college-aged daughter)."
