Pick of the week: How to say Fabulous in 8 Different Languages

A travel phrase book for gay men

The Olympics are coming and that means one thing: hot poon tang.

It’s a little known fact that during the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, 100,000 condoms were distributed to the 10,500 athletes in the athletes’ village for those who wanted to blow off more than just steam.

If you want in on some of that action, How To Say “Fabulous” in 8 Different Languages by Gerard Mryglot and Ted Marks will help you lasso an athlete or two, as long as they speak English, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian or Spanish.

Unlike most phrase books, this one provides lines that gay men will actually use — from “Can I buy you a drink?” to “You’re splitting me in half.”

If VANOC wants us to be a hospitable city during the Games, they should send some athletes to Davie St. Bedding gold medalists is a challenge we were born for, and 2010 is our year to shine.
