FUCKING

I once came across about this issue on Mariella's blog.

Apparently, there is a village in Austria named FUCKING

And the last few days, I keep watching Sound of Music again and again,

and start wondering If Im going to look like Julie Andrew at the age of 75,

amazed with Austrian folk dance, Laendler like I'm watching it for the 1st time,

talking to myself in front of the screen how Liesl has a wondeful eyes,

singing The Lonely Goathered at 3am,Lay ee odl lay ee odl-oo

So,Ive been doing my research, studying about Austria, Salzburg to be exact, where the filming of Sound of Music took place,

and again I came across of this Fucking village.

Apparently, the village was founded by a man named Focko, so Fucking means "Focko people"

Its road signs are a popular attraction for visitors, and they were often stolen by souvenir-hunting tourists until 2005 when they were modified to be theft-resistant.

Disebabkan road sign ni selalu sangat kena curi, diorang suggest untuk tukar the village's name. But the Fucking residents, refused. According to its mayor "everyone here knows what it means in English, but for us Fucking is Fucking — and it's going to stay Fucking." (LOL sounded funny to me!)

British and American soldiers who were based in nearby Salzburg noticed the name after World War II, and they began to travel to the village to have their photos taken beside the signs whilst striking various poses. The local residents, the Fuckingers, were considerably bemused as they had not previously been aware of the meaning of their village's name in English.Since then, the number of visitors to Fucking has increased.

In November 2008 the village hosted the Festival of the Fuck Bands music festival, which featured bands Fucked Up, Holy Fuck, Fuck and Fuck Button.

So the residents are called the Fuckingers?Ingatkan The Fuckers.

Also, a local resident sold t-shirts featuring the village road signs, with the slogan "I like Fucking in Austria" printed on them. Sumpah nak beli baju ni, pakai depan MakLong,MakNgah, MakWan, Paksu,Paklang,MakAndak masa raya. Sure freakout orang tua tu. hahahahhahaha

And there I thought Fucking is a funny name of one place. Then,I found out there are a lot of places with funny names all over the world
