In elementary school, my friend Nicola (later shortened to just “Nick”, because he realised “Nicola” was a girl’s name) excitedly told me “I know how to swear in Italian!”

I thought, “wow, we barely know how to swear in English!” and said “Tellmetellmetellme pleeeeeaaasssseee tellme!”

He taught me “Vaffanculo”, and it’s stuck with me to this day.
