MODERATORS
I've no idea why Croatia and Bosnia have 69 while Serbia and Montenegro have 8, when surely both "funny numbers" are well-known in the area equally. 420 is also known just about everywhere, not just Netherlands.
What's funny about 8?
When someone says "osam" (eight), you reply with one of the rhyming insults
"Nos ti posran" = Your nose is covered in shit
or
"Na kurcu te nosam" = I carry you on my cock
They're rather silly insults, I think nobody actually uses them beyond the age of 12, but everyone knows them.
