thabadMonth – top posts in the last 30 days
These are the five most popular posts on thebadrash this month... the Vagina Institute one is more down to odd Google searches than anything else, and the Nazi Pop Twins one was submitted by someone to StumbleUpon. The alternative poll was linked, as some may have guessed, to a comments thread on another Catalonia-based blog. Next week, I'll go into some more detail about how the Catalans are the most evil people in history and how their insistence on speaking Catalan is worse than the Holocaust. The people deserve to know the truth.
- thebadPoll - should everyone understand Catalan?
- Nazi Pop Twins Documentary
- The weird world of the Vagina Institute
- Alternative poll: is requiring a nivell C certificate for all civil servants "the same" as the forced tattooing of Jewish prisoners in Nazi concentration camps?
- thebadPoll - Who should be the next US president?
I will probably fin a WordPress plugin to do this automatically for me from now on.
By the way, thebadPoll has been a generally popular new feature. I wasn't sure whether I should write a post summing up each poll's results, or just let the numbers speak for themselves. For the moment, don't forget that you can access all the previous polls here.

Hey, I think this can help you to better understand this country , Catalonia. Make it run. Thanks.
TO THE TOURISTS AND NO TOURISTS:
CATALAN PEOPLE LOVE AT WHOLE WORLD, BUT I LOVE BEST IF YOU STAY AT HOME OR IF YOU GO TO OTHERS BEAUTIFUL PLACES FOR HOLIDAYS OR FOR LIVING.
YOU SHALL FIND HERE A DRY, CROWDED, ROUGH AND EXPENSIVE COUNTRY, WITH INSANE AIR, WATERS AND SAND UNDER A DANGEREOUS SUN. PLENTY OF CEMENT AND CARS. WITH BAD HUMOUROUS WAITERS, FULL OF PICKPOCKETS, BURGLARS AND GYPSIES, HOOLIGANS, GARLIC EVERYWHERE, AND BAD WINE AND FOOD IN TOURIST PLACES. A LAND WITH NO LAW. THESE ARE NOT LIES.
IF YOU COME FOR HOLIDAYS, THINGS WILL GO WORSE, AND IF YOU COME FOR LIVING YOU NEED TO LEARN THE DIFFICULT AND UNUSEFUL CATALAN.
AND YOUR MONEY HELPS TO KEEP CATALONIA COLONIZED!
HELP US ! PLEASE DON'T COME TO CATALONIA!
Catalonia is -cap de suro- the region where the Costa Brava is, and the land where you believe typical the sangria, paela, flamenco, toros. There are the Rambles full of mexican hats.
FES-HO CÓRRER! PÁSALO! SEND IT!

Ara és l'hora
Fins els pebrots de ser el pixadero d'Europa i que mig món es vingui a cagar a casa nostra; que no ens puguem banyar ni gaudir les plages tranquils; que s'hagi destrossat el nostre paisatge per quatre duros, dels que ens en foten tres. Farts de no poder passejar tranquils per ciutat i que els preus es posin impossibles a l'estiu, sobretot a la costa. I fàstic que sobre aquestes bases podrides del turisme massificat de quarta s'aguanti el país. Us imagineu les platges buides de guiris?
Si no entren divises i ens tornem "pobres" ja vindran a arreglar-ho els de Madrid, com ho fan a Andalusia, que viuen cent vegades millor amb la caritat del nord. Han esdevingut un país amb un entorn més agradable i un paisatge preservat. I sense fotre puto cop. Seria el moment que Espanya ens tornés -s'hi veiés obligada si no vinguessin turistes- el deute històric. Hi guanyariem per partida doble: No turistes, més tranquils, a sobre l'Espanya sol.lidària ens abocaria calers -sense fotre brot- i això de retruc faria encarar d'una vegada la solució a la situació d'expoli que vivim. S'ha entès que no hem de patir per la situació laboral que això provocaria? Primer perquè Espanya ja ajudaria, però segon perquè de treballadors d'hosteleria de catalans només n'hi han només dos o tres.
I dels turistes que es queden: fan baixar els salaris; gràcies a la necessitat que tenen d'habitatge els pisos han multiplicat el preu; les ciutats es tornen cada dia més denses, i no dic que provoquin la major part de la delinqüencia i problemes d'incivisme perquè em dirien racista, si cas ho diria.

A controversial point of view, Pafiam. I suspect you may find it receives some opposition.

Hey Pafiam, what's it like living with your head so far up your ass that people mistake the things you say for projectile diarrhea? It must suck! I'd be a bitter and ineffectual wanker too!
