Curses!

I heard Jim Webber (chief scientist of neo4j) give an intro talk for neo4j at the Sela Dev conference in TLV on 2014-07-01. I tweeted about Jim’s profligate use of expletives and was requested by his coworkers to elaborate. Though I can’t remember every single one (he averaged one curse every 2.5 minutes, though they tended to come in bursts), the graph below tries to reconstruct one sentence that stands out in my memory.

CREATE (jim:Person { name:"Jim" }),
       (shittiest:Curse { name:"Shittiest" }),
       (neo4j:Target { name:"neo4j",type:"graphDb" }),
       (cypher:Target { name:"cypher",type:"queryLanguage" }),
       (targetName:CurseTarget { name:"name quality" }),
       (jim)-[:USED_WORD]->(shittiest)-[:APPLIED_TO]->(targetName),
       (targetName)-[:OF]->(neo4j),
       (targetName)-[:OF]->(cypher),
       (cypher)-[:USED_FOR]->(neo4j)
RETURN jim, shittiest, neo4j, cypher, targetName;

If you can try to reconstruct the sentence that this seeks to represent and enter it in a comment below, I will let you know how close you have come.
