Boothill has to fucking cackle at the question of whether he's hurt or not. He's feeling great. It's like having an irritating sliver removed - he made the best of the beacon situation, but man alive did it get on his nerves sometimes. "Nah, Rico, I'm doin' just fuckin' fine. Those IPC shitbags fucked with my synaesthesia beacon a while ago so whenever I tried to say a naughty word it turned it into somethin' 'clean', so if I said fuck it'd say fork or fudge or what the fuck ever, if I said shit it'd be shirt or sugar. I have to tell you, it made me sound like a fuckin' idiot. Now for some reason we're talkin' in a different language and it ain't workin' and I can say whatever the hell I want."

Some might suggest that Boothill could have just stopped swearing, but that would be too much like knuckling under to the IPC, something you'd never catch him doing. Besides, sounding like an idiot was useful for making people think he was an idiot, and being underestimated could come in very handy.
