No danger of any harrassment claim there. Bad taste and rude language, to be sure, but that's all.

What if, hypothetically, I added "And then let's get back to working on the case." With my arms and fingers extended like Steve Martin as the wild-and-crazy-guy? Would that have been bad, in theory?

True dat. One wonders if the federal courts will ever stop demanding more and more shit that they won't ever look at.
