#2 He said: "Most of them can speak English, and when someone asks them where they come from they are a little ashamed to say it."

Heh, I just have to offer this little (8.24MB) mpeg video in honor of that statement. Note the opening credit, heh. One of the funniest commercials ever made, IMHO.

#5 TGA: Exactly! Jeez, do people really not see the commercial possibilities of this? I'd have already printed up a bunch of t-shirts that say, "My grandma went to F*cking Austria and all I got was this F*cking t-shirt." Or "Austria: Best F*cking Vacation Ever". Come on, people!

#9 An Austrian village called Fucking will not change its name despite sniggering Brits making off with its roadsigns.

I have a feeling that Alabama newspapers won't be syndicating this article.

#11 More :

It is near the city of Salzburg. The village is known to have existed as "Fucking" since at least 1070 and is named after a man from the 6th century called Focko. "Ing" is an old Germanic suffix meaning "people"; thus Fucking, in this case, means "place of Focko's people".

#12 Someone once told me, that the old (middle ages??) pronunciation of the word viking (or whatever the word they had for viking back then), is actually fucking.

So when the vikings attacked, the alarm would sound something like: "The fuckings are coming! The fuckings are coming!" (well, it seemed funny at the time I heard this)

They also have "MÃ¶sendorf" (translates as "c*** village".

And Bavaria has a town called "Tuntenhausen".

Translates as "Fag Town".

Oh, there is more:

Busendorf (Tit village)
Tittendorf (same as above)
Sexau (sex meadow)
Puffdorf (brothel village)
Puffthal (brothel valley)
Tuntendorf (fag village)
Wixhausen (wanking house)

#15 Makes Intercourse, Pennsylvania seem rather clinical in comparison.

#22 That'll do, .com. What I had in mind was "talking."

The joke's so old I actually forgot how it goes. The question should be: What's another word for "intercourse" that ends in "king"?

Glad to see nobody went for the "obvious" answer (particularly considering the subject of this thread). ;-p

#26 like the old joke: bishop doing the crossword, asks the priest what's a 4 letter word ending in "nt" for a woman". The priest says: "Aunt". Oh yes, says the bishop and quickly erases a couple letters

But then, I've led a sheltered life. ;-p

#32 Heh, Raj, Thx!

Y'know, I get the feeling she's going to be around a long long time and become one of the greats. She seems to have the temperament and, IMHO, the talent (not talents, heh) for those roles that demand subtlety and finesse. She could make some great flix.

Of course, in the three pix you linked she seems very aware and proud of her slutty high-end trailer-trash appearance, lol! Mebbe she's shallow and foolish - I hope not - I really think she's got (had?) class.
