I never watch shows where Rumpflacks get to talk, with no pushback. Bad for the blood pressure.

But 'blasted' reverses my tendency toward increasing my number and intensity of cuss word use, when discussing their side.

I'd sound like I had tourettes, once I got started. Blasted gives some emotional distance, and conveys the feeling perfectly.
