If you were to Google the word caganer (I know my audience and I know you will) you would discover the lovely tradition started in Northern Spain by villagers who decorated their yearly nativity scenes with The Shitter.
If you were to investigate further (again, I know you will) and click on the Images section, you'd see caganers of all shapes and sizes, including many celebrities, political leaders and even sports heroes, all hunched over and "Launching a lifeboat off the SS Assitania."
About three quarters down the page you'd see this entry:
It comes from my original posting about caganers way back in 2010.
And if you were to click it, you'd be redirected to my blog. I know this from doing a careful analysis of my recent web traffic. Turns out an astounding number of people are now coming here because of something I wrote nearly 5 years ago.
No small achievement.
Particularly for someone like me, an advertising copywriter, who can only look back at a pitiful series of small 30 second and 1/4 page meaningless lifetime achievements.
Nevertheless, I couldn't be prouder.
I am winning the Internet.
RoundSeventeen has now become synonymous with people pulling down their pants in public and taking a big curly dump.
Oh wait, that didn't come out right.
