对邻居、旧情人、政府乃至整个社会感到不满的希腊人现在可以登陆一家新开设的专门网站免费发布“诅咒贴”，发泄自己的不满情绪。

该“诅咒”网站向人们发出邀请：“你被抛弃、感到烦恼、生气吗？何不来e-katares.com 诅咒一下呢！”目前该网站上的“诅咒贴”已超过150个。

Most postings on the site are from jilted lovers but there are also contributions aimed at Greek taxi drivers,banks, the public sector and even Prime Minister Costas Karamanlis.
多数发贴者都是被恋人抛弃的人，也有一些发贴者诅咒出租车司机、银行、公共服务部门，希腊总理科斯塔斯•卡拉曼利斯也成了网咒的“靶子”。

一名用户发贴诅咒他：“希望他下次吃饭时沙门氏菌中毒。” 科斯塔斯总理对于美食的热爱经常成为反对党媒体攻击嘲讽的对象。

In Athens, locals usually relieve stress through a variety of offensive hand gestures, most frequently whilst caught in one of the capital's trademark traffic jams.

社会学教授乔治•皮佩罗普洛斯在接受《民族报》的采访时说：“欧盟数据服务中心（Eurostat）开展的调查显示，如今，希腊人自信、放松的生活状态已不复存在，由于工作不稳定和传统社会结构的瓦解，希腊人现在已成为欧洲压力最大的国民。”上周六的《民族报》刊登了该诅咒网站的宣传广告。
