It can. It is mainly a performance issue though, as how the line is
delivered is critical in this case. But "I'm so fucked up" is capable of
conveying the meaning that the scene requires. And I do believe that Spike
pulled it off.
The issue then becomes "Is it a good subtitle choice?" On that regard I'm
conflicted.
>I feel like a nuance is lost, myself.
Nuances are always lost in translation, the goal is to keep as many as
possible.
