Ready to evangelise: Club kalebeul’s favourite Chilean whip

Mr Chappell chose a weekend when everyone is out of town to announce his intention to serve the Catalan nation by marketing cuntino filet with white sauce (do click this link) to the world as una catalana. I’m not convinced that he will be able to evangelise with conviction: Barcelona may wear Bar Cuntis on its sleeve, but (purely anecdotal) evidence suggests that yodelling in the canyon of love is less popular here than in other parts of the world.

Unfortunately hat jobs–as they are also known–did not come up in Durex’s 2004 global sex poll (“more than 350,000 people in 41 countries”). However, various others of interest did; here are some results that I found interesting:

Are only 28% of the French interested in handcuffing and blindfolding because they prefer real, live, political ignominy? Does the Spaniard’s indifference to “let’s pretend” games help explain his country’s apparent inability to get over its civil war? When did les Américains purloin le vice anglais, and what kind of punishment can they afford with their puny dollar?
