Never. Disgusting, not amusing. Only for perverts.

shoot. I was in Barcelona last week. Could have bought one... Didn't see them at the airport though.
Makes Manneken pis look like a classy one.

Bedar, as long as you're not judgmental. Didn't you recently threaten not to speak to others, if they disagreed with you about something inconsequential? You can always petition the Rajoy regime for a return to the Inquisition. They need partners to form a new government.

Have you read Robert Hughes, one of the more enlightening art critics of the past 50 years? He discusses the history of Catalan perverts, among other matters, in his book Barcelona. It was roundly well-received when published over 20 years ago and still remains a standard for many.

Pariswat, you can get them at other times, but it is like asking for Christmas decoration in July.

IMD - We had a very long thread on these little beasties last Christmas. Sure you can find it if you do a search. Hey, if you're into kitsch, go for these little nasties. I'm not. "Threaten" ? You are silly and perhaps don't read well. I merely said that people who use backpacks are not part of my social circle. Nor are the tattooed or pierced folks. Just the way it is.

Sorry, I do not memorize topics on Fodor's. And can you imagine someone starting a topic that already has been answered. That has happened since yesterday.

Let us burn all heretic threads.

I love people making such a fuss about things THEY don't like.
The world has more than one taste -fortunately, even if sometimes the additional taste is the bad one.

Here's to bad taste. May it long rankle those who think they do not have any.

Not sure I get the connection between caganers and <tattooed or pierced folks> but maybe I'm missing something!!!???

Sorry Bedar, but I think you said something to they effect that you wouldn't even talk to someone who wears a backpack.

I am hopeful you will be true to your word as I always wear one.

Really ?

I thought it was a joke for the backpacks, that I found funny and I answered in kind at the time !

I have to learn that people can be really stupid and say things that we have to take at face value, not at second degree. But boy, oh boy, I wouldn't have thought people could be THAT stupid.
