Did Grover drop the F bomb?

That's Grover? I thought it was a hipster jogging Oscar, all cleaned up.

What other word could it be in that context?

Listen to and try to hear it say: "that sounds like an excellent "

After a few tries, it won't sound like he's saying f*cking anymore.

Agree with R2

Listened 4 times and heard “fuckin” each time.

Part of the problem is that by the way the question is posed, you go into it expecting to hear "fucking." Without going into complicated explanations about how we hear what we expect to hear, try this:

Play to video and say along with Grove, "yes. yes, that sounds like an excellent idea" in the same cadence with him several times. He'll seem to stop saying "fucking."

When I first played it I heard "that sounds like". I listened again after I read the comments and then realized it sounded like fuckin' when I wanted it to and sound like "that sounds like" when I wanted it to.

I agree I heard both. If I concentrated on listening for “sounds like an excellent idea” that’s what I got. But at first because I was told to hear fucking, that’s what I heard.

I didn't hear it at all.

I heard him say “laurel.”

I’m with r7. Heard it both ways based on what I expected to hear.

All I heard were slurping sounds.

This reminds me of the time people mistook the priest's knee in The Little Mermaid for an erection:
