A record number of people in Malta have written the word ‘fuck’ in their Facebook and WhatsApp group chats.
The vast majority of the 125,628 ‘fucks’ were written in reply to that one person who always posts the number of new cases of Covid-19.
The fuck clusters were found in hundreds of friend and work chats, as well as a handful of family group chats.
The fuck tally also includes phrases such as ‘fucking hell’, while a number of fucks were sandwiched between the words ‘Jesus’ and ‘Christ’.
Since the start of the pandemic, a total of 5,750,934 ‘fucks’ have been written.
Meanwhile, a smaller number of fucks were written today by people who learned that their cars had been swept away by floodwater.
