What offended you - 'Communist' or 'friggin'?
You might say it's our own damn fault, you might say my parents' generation and mine are to blame, I won't argue about that.
You may criticize the communism, the backwater mentality, the ingrained sense of entitlement and lots of other things about (ex-)Yugoslavia. A lot of that stuff is the reason why I left.
But please, keep it civil, for the sake of us poor schmucks that loved growing up in that place and then left it, disappointed.
Sorry you got your feelings hurt.
BTW a friend of mine actually bought a Yugo. We made fun of it at the time, but in terms of gas mileage and how much he paid for it, it was a big winner.
By putting "friggen" into the middle of a word, you're verbally underlining / emphasizing it. Really emphasizing it, as is underlining it multiple times.
For instance, in the movie Pretty Woman, when one of the two friends is trying to figure out someone for whom a relationship worked out, she responds with "Cinder-friggen-rella". ( http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0100405/quotes?qt0466870 )
I know this is an overly-long response to a minor issue, but I just didn't want you thinking that someone was making fun of your country. Instead, I believe the person who originally said it was essentially trying to say "a really, really, really communist country" had a more appealing entry system than today's America.
Thanks!
And I'm off to wikipedia for a while. It's Friday night and I just learned something - the weekend is off to a great start.
