| 1)the work "" is actually an acronym meaning to "Fornicate Under Command of the King" back in the older days of england... at that time, england was seriously underpopulated due to plagues, fires, war, etc etc, so the king issued an order for the people to and re-up the population... |

Well, while we're on the topic of fuking:
Here's a news quote that includes a random fact about the use of the word :
Brits steal carloads of F**king Austrian roadsigns
By Lester Haines (lester.haines at theregister.co.uk)
Published Monday 15th August 2005 13:06 GMT
An Austrian village called ing will not change its name despite s******ing Brits making off with its roadsigns.
Mayor Siegfried Hauppl has asked visitors to lay off the signs which began to attract outside attention after British and US soldiers passing through in 1945 illuminated the locals as to the English meaning of ing, Ananova reports.
Hauppl explained: "We had a vote last year on whether to rename the town, but decided to keep it as it is. After all, ing has existed for 800 years, probably when a Mr or the family moved into the area. The 'ing' was added as a word for settlement."
We reckon that ing has been around a lot longer than 800 years, otherwise there wouldn't have been any s to lend their name to the village in the first place, would there?
Be that as it may, the disappointing news is that the residents of ing are - according to Franz Duernsteiner, an expert on preposterous Austrian village names - very "conservative" people. He said: "Most of them can speak English, and when someone asks them where they come from they are a little ashamed to say it."
That's fair enough, and certainly something the residents of Milton Keynes can sympathise with. ® |

You tend to look at items directly infront of you about 150 ms before you begin to formulate and speak the name of the object of interest. Good stuff to know.
Also, damage to Broca's area (found typically near the left frontal lobe) in the brain causes agrammatic aphasia. Good stuff to know. |
