Fugging hell: tired of mockery, Austrian village changes name
Mayor says residents, known as ****ingers, ‘have had enough of visitors and their bad jokes’
Residents of an Austrian village will ring in the new year under a new name – Fugging – after ridicule of their signposts, especially on social media, became too much to bear.
They finally grew weary of ****ing, its current name, which some experts say dates back to the 11th century.
I wonder if other towns will do likewise:
Or Muff in Ireland and the inevitable:
Muff Diving Club
Or going Cuntis, Spain.
But if you couldn't be bothered, there is always the always lively, buzzing town of Dildo, Newfoundland.
