Use the paragraph to answer the question.

Tom is a pretty okay guy. Sure, he’s a bit style-challenged, and his humor leaves a lot to be desired—but at the end of the day, if you dropped a twenty on the ground and Tom saw, I’d say there’s a fifty percent chance you’d get it back.

How does the author use euphemism?
