Government

From the Ars Technica web site:

Reports from the Government Accountability Office always aspire to a certain bland uniformity. But like the Edwardian courtier who spots a snub in the syllabic stress of a formal introduction, a practiced reader learns to spot all the rich shades of meaning in that sturdy bureaucratic prose. If an agency "needs improvement," you may safely assume that it has been taken over by reptoid aliens plotting to farm humanity like cattle.
