No issue with fixing F-bomb (though one comes from upstream sources I
think) and the Pitch typo, but seriously "damn" is not a swear word.
I have to suspect you ran a corporate word checker over the sources.

Hi Adam,
in order to prevent me from using swear words, could you please upload
your webrev to cr.openjdk.java.net :)
As you may have realized webrevs are a collection of HTML files and it
makes no big sense to provide them as a zip file.
Thank you and best regards,
Volker

Hey All,
I've spotted 12 instances of swear words in OpenJDK source comments,
and
it seems appropriate to remove them.

I've created a webrev and attached to the bug.
Also, I've mentioned in the bug that there are additional swears in
more
excusable locations. It would be good to get the community's take on
those.
Reviews and opinions welcome. :)
