Apparently Mr. Bas just recently had some idle time at work. Like most other lazyadmins he decided to use this time to surf the web for some self-enhancement content, and also for blessing supremebeings.org with some information about The F*cking Village. Located in the Austria (Note: I know is hard for many of you to believe, but English is not the official language in Austria) and founded over 800 years ago, the village people first found out about the English meaning of the name in 1945. Everything "ain't" for everybody.

Interesting quote: "Hauppl explained: "We had a vote last year on whether to rename the town, but decided to keep it as it is. After all, Fucking has existed for 800 years, probably when a Mr Fuck or the Fuck family moved into the area. The 'ing' was added as a word for settlement."

Interesting how villages/town were named based on factors such as the name original settlers, cultural practices, events that often occurred in the area, so on and so on. Can you say Lynchburg Virginia? And yes, English was/is the native language there. There is even an Lynchburg University.
