Some politician was campaigning in Australia this weekend, and the following occurred:

But the pesky media travelling with the Labor leader continued to ask questions, leading Mr Rudd to say, "one more local question and then we'd better zip".

When a journalist asked if he could ask a national question, Mr Rudd responded with: "Zob zob zob."

Okay, that's funny already. But it gets better:

"Zob zob zob" is apparently French vernacular for a man's genitalia, and is also the name of a French hardcore movie from 1977.

Whether Mr Rudd, who conducted an interview in Mandarin for a Chinese television news channel, is fluent in French is unknown.

Hee!
