WTF

WTF ... 3 pitiful English words, including one which is called a 'bad word' when all it does is to explain copulation in the vernacular.  Why not? I do not see any movement for a better, more expressive alternative so shall we let it be, and not make a capital case of it?

Cantonese cuisine in Vancouver has benefited from Hong Kong immigrants, both culinary professionals as well as gourmands. We were taken to a leading restaurant, which will remain nameless here and you will not believe what I am about to share.

On the corridor there was the de rigueur open tank to highlight freshness of the sea food, albeit freshness at a price.  In that tank were one hardly moving fish, one on its side clearly in rigor mortis as shown, and one belly up. Bad press, I said to myself and then in absolute shock I noticed a sign board with a bilingual display that said ... 'It is normal for healthy fish to be belly up, due to the difference in water pressure between the sea and the fish tank'.

Now, this is when WTF comes in. What the Fuck? Can you  believe this bullshit, at a rated restaurant, in down town Vancouver?
