As a person of Bulgarian descent I am somewhat put out by the reference to a rabid skunk as a "bugger under a bucket." Since the 12th Century Bulgarians have been stereotyped for their perceived sexual picadillos.

The article is stating that the skunk was captured under a bucket. There is no sexual innuendo intended in that article that I can see. Unless you're joking you appear to be hypersensitive about a non-subject.

Alex,

Frequently stereotypes are developed because certain groups of people exhibit stereotypical behavior. Please tell us what Bulgarians have been doing for the last eight hundred years to warrant an unfortunate reputation?

For example, people pretending to be men of the cloth often turn out to be pedophiles. Thus the unfortunate stereotype for Rev. Pimp.

Well, yes. This unfortunate stereotype brought us the question, "How do tell when it is midnight in the chancery?". That is when the big hand touches the little hand. The same question was asked of Neverland, Michael Jackson's compound.

'Skunk Captures Rabid Woman' would make a more interesting headline.

Skunks are buggers. They eat grubs. Bulgarians will have to live with this fact.
