    I love how “fuck” is the the only word censored when it’s literally a map of swear words

      English speaking countries are among the few obsessed with censoring swear words, but yeah, it’s ridiculous, isn’t it.

    A friend of mine gave a Mexican woman a lesson in Norwegian swear words after she rear-ended our car outside Vegas. I think she was impressed.

    I’m kinda disappointed. I always thought “kurwa” is exclusively our Polish thing.

      Even some german people start using it. You cannot go arround making 80% of your language one word and then expect that no one will pick it up.

    Where’s the source on this? Porra being Portugals most used swear word seems wrong. Caralho or fodasse seem a lot more likely.
