Hugo Chavez names new Venezuela cell phone after his penis. No, that is not a typo.

May 16, 2009, 4:40 pm · 4 comments

Hey, Hugo, is that a Vergatorio in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?

Looks like there’s no one left in Venezuela brave enough to tell Hugo Chavez when one of his ideas is stupid.

The Venezuelan strongman (we can’t bring ourselves to call him “President”) just launched one of the world’s most inexpensive cell phones. At just $15, it rivals the cheapest Asian phones.

The stupid part is that he named it the Vergatorio, which is Venezuelan slang for penis. He even made penis jokes at the public product launch.

Why, you may wonder, is the Venezuelan leader introducing a new cell phone and giving it an offensive name? Because he can. He recently nationalized the company that developed the phone, which makes him its new chief executive.

Makes sense to us. And we look forward to seeing Barack Obama introduce the exciting new 2010 Chryslers in the near future.
