I am so shocked that Misty over at MontChan missed this juicy news item:

Villagers fjucked off with international ridicule

By Lester Haines → 18th December 2006 11:

The good burghers of the Swedish village of Fjuckby have decided they’ve had enough of being the butt of fjuck jokes and are demanding a rebrand, The Local reports.

The Fjuckers finger globalisation as the principal cause of their woes, which “has led to rude English-language associations that the villagers could do without”. To add insult to injury, Fjuckby also contains the Swedish word juck, meaning “hump” in the local lingo.

Misty please don’t say it…….don’t!

Oh man! It’s old news. The Local and The Register must be a bit slow on the uptake. Or maybe there ain’t enough wars and kiddnappings today.

So, if Fjuckby is so bad, then how about them good folk of Intercourse, Pennsylvania? I don’t see them getting overly upset.

Instead of changing the name the Fjuckers should embrace it, organize an annual fjucking contest, along with a gay parade for equality, and design a new tourist slogan:

we fjuck you like you’ve never been fjucked before
or
Fjucking you gently
or simply:
I “heart” Fjuckby!

Swedes can be such total fjucking morons.

And there you have it folks! Old news it may be BUT Misty’s response is as fresh as a cowpat steaming in a field of lush emerald green grass and bright yellow dandelions! She packs them huh!?

I suppose everyone at Fjucking has heard all the Fjucking jokes over and over again. But there must be one they have never heard before? Hell, if they are wanting to renmae the village then its open season on Fjucking jokes innit?

Oh, and as for the Fjuckers, they should ask Jack Black (Tenacious D) to write a song about them. He’d love it.

Are you thinking of the Hatikvah Delicatessen on Catherine Street?

The famous Hatikvah Deli as it is now
