They swore on the Skylab repair mission too

The Skylab 1 (or 2 depending on the reference) crew that went up to
repair what would become their home for the next month (one main
solar panel and the sun shielding on the station got torn off) swore like
sailors when they were trying to fix America's first space station.

Thankfully all was fixed (or at least successfully jury-rigged). Too bad
they couldn't have saved Skylab liked they hoped in 1979 and that other
than Apollo-Soyuz, these were the only direct applications of Apollo
after the Moon missions.
