Oh, well seen and captured, David! :)
Funny that y’all should bring up language, particularily how our mother tongue
seems to spawn all manner of usage in global consumer-fashion and culture. I
saw this article recently and I guess David’s warning/disclaimer ought to be
considered with this as well. :)

With a buildup like that, how can you NOT click on the link? Interesting sign

Xavier pointed out that it is actually the sign & logo of a well known

I imagine the main saving grace for them is that not all Hungarians speak

A word of caution. While most people will not be bothered by this image, if
you are sensitive to somewhat crude language, or the implication of it, then
I suggest you NOT click on the link.
