AND NO RUNNING THE RED LIGHT, EITHER!

'We are a very traditional community and we find this sort of public display shocking,' the F***ing resident added.

So they set up a kind of "red light" camera so they can, what ... watch?

No F***ing way! The man's in love.

Will there be a streaming High Fidelity web feed? I wonder if there's any kind of market for that sort of thing.

The Snopes article on the town, Welcome to Austria, has pictures of the signs. The second one is fooking funny.

I'm thinking they watch the cameras and only give tickets to the ugly ones...

It's good to see American culture coming to other countries.

Allen, they rate them like Olympic diving or gymnastics.

"Ooh, nice reverse cowboy there. I'll give them a 9.5."

I'm surprised they only have a population of 104.
Perhaps the signs are incorrect.

lol @ Horace. Please not so fast, indeed.

NotSherly - maybe they went here, too.

Change the town's name to Blow Me. It's the only way.

I really need to stop reading these in the office. People are staring.

The quickest way to Fucking is through the Tequila Expressway, but if you follow your woman's directions you'll spend forever taking the scenic route on the Foreplay Interchange.

I did not know you could have a asterisk in a URL.

According to Snopes, the Bergermeister wants bigger screws.

Growing up in southern Wisconsin, I thought all the Illinois tourists came from a town of the same name.

In fact I believe I can still buy a t-shirt there that says GBTI* on one side and FIB** on the other.*
