What do you think are the right places to deploy euphemisms, or should we abandon them altogether? How harmful is it to use euphemisms, and why not err on their side just in case? And, if we took all the euphemisms off the table, what do we do with language next?\xa0This week, Joey, Jess, and Aaron try out a new Exquisite Corpse segment where they pass along a conversation to each other one thought at a time. They talk about tech layoffs, pooping and peeing, the Space Shuttle\xa0Challenger, unreceptive audiences, buying used cars, the joy of playing with language, and protective speech. They don\u2019t talk about exquisite jorps.\xa0references\xa0* Explaining Exquisite Corpse, the Surrealist Drawing Game That Just Won\u2019t Die (https://www.artsy.net/article/artsy-editorial-explaining-exquisite-corpse-surrealist-drawing-game-die)\xa0* The Space Shuttle\xa0Challenger\xa0disaster\xa0* Revisiting\xa0Critical Nonsense 174!
