Dutch Word of the Year

Today the Dutch word of the year was announced and the winner was 'swaffelen' which means to sweep the male organ from side to side while banging against an object such as a building. The word came to prominence when a young man posted a youtube video where he 'swaffled' the Taj Mahal. Since then most of the world's major landmarks have succumbed to the same fate. Rival football fans have been known to 'swaffle' the opposition's stadium. This is obviously a human variant of territorial pissing and though I am sure the partakers are having a 'swaffily' good time I am not sure that this will be a stayer. Maybe next year the youth will just go back to mooning.
