"The settlement’s most famous feature is a traffic sign with its name on it beside which English-speaking tourists often stop to have their photograph taken. It is a commonly stolen street sign. Lots of ***** money is spent on replacing the stolen signs. In August 2005 the road signs were replaced with theft-proof signs welded to steel and secured in concrete to make the signs harder to take."
Lots of ***** money! BAHAHAHAHA - ohcoaster, on 10/12/2007, -1/+83Well the ***** mayor should order a ***** sign that isn't so easy to gank.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+63i just found my retirement place, Where do you live? ***** Austria thats where...
- elnerdo, on 10/12/2007, -2/+51Also according to the translation underneath.
- chris9902, on 10/12/2007, -0/+42I've seen Mianus, nothing but a big dump.
- feucht, on 10/12/2007, -6/+42and believe or not, "America" means "bag of *****" in German
- gharding, on 10/12/2007, -6/+38I'm getting really tired of all this self-censoring. Everyone knows what you're trying to say so just say it. Especially when it's a PROPER NOUN. ***** puritans.
- pirana0, on 10/12/2007, -0/+30Another one: Mianus, Connecticut.
- djm91, on 10/12/2007, -0/+25no.. ther called *****
- xobecide, on 10/12/2007, -0/+21There's a test at the end of every year going over the happenings of the internet. This is just a review for the final exam, which will include such goodies as All Your Base, lonelygirl15, man with elephantiasis of balls, and a college student taking a flaming shot and he catches fire.
- Paroparo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+22I was really confused because I initially read it as Australia. Makes more sense with a country where the main language isn't English. =P
- kefkastudio, on 10/12/2007, -0/+19.. and here's a picture of me at the ***** museum, and here's a picture of me at one of the ***** parks, and here's a picture of me at the ***** airport..
- abid786, on 10/12/2007, -7/+25(Unfortunetely) pronounced Fooking though...
- blackjack75, on 10/12/2007, -1/+19There is one indian immigrant there.
He's a Sikh *****. - ClayDragon, on 10/12/2007, -1/+18@ampop: no it's not, it IS in Austria. RTFA & Wikipedia
Dugg because I live in Austria. (wipes a tear from the corner of his eye, deeply moved with national pride) - Canute, on 10/12/2007, -8/+24Haha! On the sign it says (according to my rusty german):
"*****"
"Please -
not so fast" - EBFoxbat, on 10/12/2007, -1/+15"Mianus has the most Sox fans per capita ;)"
Move to *****, *****. :) - starvo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+13Having just moved to New England, I think I'm going to have to arrange a road trip from Boston to see Mianus.
I'm sure that it's wonderful... - thumbup, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14Meet the *****.
- chris9902, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11and then the British came... http://www.theregister.co.uk/2005/08/15/austrian_signs/
- Kingmichael, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Place_names_with_English_meanings
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+11Can you imagine the look on the face of people living in that town. They constantly see a flock of tourists stopping by just to have their photograph taken with the sign. They say to each others in German: "What the ***** is so special about that ***** sign?"
- eurofooty, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9An oldie that still gets a few giggles...
- CeeJayDK, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9neither do you it seems.
- rpg405, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8It's a noun, a verb, an interjection... HELL, it's everything!
http://www.funlol.com/funpages/historyoffword.html - WayneMan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7There's a Cumming, Georgia.
I live just outside, so I guess I'm always close to Cumming... - JuyLe, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7From wikipedia: “Ing” is an old Germanic suffix meaning “people”; thus *****, in this case, means “place of Focko’s people”
But well, let's call them the ***** ! - mathewjm, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Man, I totally need to get a t-shirt announcing myself as "The Mayor of *****"
- michir, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kissing%2C_Germany
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petting%2C_Germany
very funny - Dennern, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Are the people who live in this town called *****?
- vlurk, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Although few people here speak French, you have also a town named Montcul in France. In French, you pronounce that exactly like "mon cul", and that could be translated literally to "my arse". Just as funny as Mianus if you're bilingual. :) I like to think that in a parallel Universe, Mianus is Myarse's downtown "business" sector. xD
- technoticau, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5there is no ***** airport damit
- redfishbluefish, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Why yes!
http://images.google.ca/imgres?imgurl=http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f2/DildoNewfoundland.jpg/280px-DildoNewfoundland.jpg&imgrefurl=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dildo,_Newfoundland_and_Labrador&h=373&w=280&sz=22&hl=en&start=1&tbnid=ohNG-nzIVmbNRM:&tbnh=122&tbnw=92&prev=/images%3Fq%3Ddildo%2Bnewfoundland%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26sa%3DN - Jugalator, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5And I don't find far fetched arguments where one thinks too hard insightful.
- Jugalator, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4... and as legend tells; the laughter was heard all the way to *****.
http://www.dribbleglass.com/Jokes/town-names.htm - pirana0, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I disbelieve your phrases about once being in ***** [are] credible.
- p0ss, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4have you ever visited australia?
I was ***** surprised it wasn't here, i mean, we have towns like "didyabringabeeralong" in Australia - rvkennedy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4I know they're easily confused: "Welcome to *****, Austria", with the Australian Tourist Board's 2007 slogan "Welcome to ***** Australia"
- picciano, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Look at the street names!!!
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=*****+Tarsdorf,+Austria&ie=UTF8&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=49.176833,80.947266&z=16&ll=48.067541,12.862523&spn=0.010209,0.026801&om=1&iwloc=addr - eimersaufen, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3@LINES: Seavas nach Kärnten aus Oberösterreich ;)
***** is about an hour away from my hometown, but since it has nothing but those sings and 91 inhabitants it's not really worth a visit... - LINES, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3It's true, I'm from Austria -- St. Paul to be exact. I recently went back-packing with my girlfriend through Europe and we stopped off to stay in Austria for a few days, and she had to literally approach the sign to see if it actually were the letters "F-U-C-K-I-N-G". Funny how foreigners from North America believe that English is rampant throughout the entire world. Ah well...
I still get a laugh from this whenever i see it. Glad to see it on the front page of Digg :D - Vinthian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3xD xD xD... i love the humor on the 2nd picture..
- daimposter, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3so there are cities named Kissing, Petting and *****? what order where they established?
my guess is that first came Kissing. then Petting. After that, all that's left is *****. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2i've seen that ***** a hundred times before. but never with the sign underneath (please, not so fast). thats adds a whole new dimension of funny.
- skoops, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Wohoo, whats that? The Austrian Club? :) Welcome fellow diggers, or should I say "Griass eich" :)
- rupaw, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Why? Because we don't have anyone who dies because of a Wee contest?
I would say: Time to move in! I just did ... Fresh from the United States... and I love it! - GloomyYardGnome, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2The funniest part about Intercourse, PA is that it is an Amish town.
- CatalystGhost, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Personally, I prefer Intercourse, Pennsylvania and Sexmoan, Pampanga (Philippines) to *****. But whatever. I'm off to found Masturbation, Minnesota.
- Canute, on 10/12/2007, -5/+7Well there you have it. My german ain't so rusty afterall :)
And also, clearly (like probably most digg users) I couldn't have cared less about reading the actual text. -
