Hugo Chavez: What A Dick

Once again, reality trumps fiction in the WTF department. Via the Telegraph:

The Venezuelan president, Hugo Chavez, has launched the Vergatorio, one of the world’s cheapest mobile phones and probably the only one with a rude name.

Costing $15 (about £10), and rivalled for price only by the very cheapest phones on sale in Asia, the Vergatorio’s name has its origins in a venezuelan slang term for penis.
…
“This telephone will be the biggest seller not only in Venezuela but the world. Whoever doesn’t have a Vergatario is nothing.”

Hmmm. “Whoever doesn’t have a *penis* is nothing.” One is left to wonder what the National Organization of Women is going to have to say about this.

NEWS FLASH! The Unwanted Blog has received a secret photo showing Hugo’s very own personal phone prototype!
