"Dark side of linguistic"
Looks like everyone in Europe knows Polish k-word. But hey, vulgarity in Polish is not just a single word (like in English f.e.). :P Actually you may find it quite interesting subject.
Click to enlarge. The last but one paragraph is very important here. I'm heaving talks like this with Icelandic locals almost every weekend:
You see, prefixes work with k-word as well and with every single one of them it means something else. Oh, and also I think if your Polish buddy uses this word really so often, you should choose better friends.

- Where are you from?That's so fucking clever. And when you ask someone where are they from and the answer is UK or USA do you call them a fuck?! What? They also say that word often, right?
- I'm from Poland.
- Oh, Poland. Kurwa, kurwa!
- Why did you just call me a hoe?
- I just said this because I know one Polish guy and he's saying kurwa often.
- Does he come to you, look in your eyes and say it straight in your face?
- Uhm, no.

Menningarnótt - Reykjavík Culture Night
Everything's different in Iceland. Even night begins before midday.
Downtown is closed fot traffic since today's morning, witch made all car owners to fight for The Biggest Pussy Behind The Wheel Cup. Oh yeah, I was fkn surprised by some drivers' creativity. Icelanders deserve Nobel Prize for making "artificial" traffic-jams.
So, the big night is coming. Actually it's the only night of the hole year anything happens in Reykjavík. I'm putting my camcorder into the bag and... try to call a taxi. You can laugh but calling a taxi in this city can be a very long-therm operation.
