Hi, I’m Lianfairpwilgwyngyligogerychwyrndrobwilllantysiliogogogoch
It’s me, Loose Bottom
Is that where people from Nether Wallop retire?
Hey it's me, brown willy ;)
Meet me in Wide Open
Cool, rest and be thankful after?
Only if we go to Fattiehead first
I'll bring beer. Feel like I'll need to drink myself to catbrain
I’ll bring some of that Giggleswick ganja
Tthink we have a good chemistry. This is either gonna end nasty, or great snoring
Missing Penistone
This is the 16th century equivalent of choosing xXxSHitl3rxXx as character name for a game. Respect to the dedication though.
Rest and Be Thankful is a road here: https://www.osmap.nl/#16/56.1967/-4.7914
A lot of these don't sound that silly if your English is any good.
Spunkie is absolutely silly if your British English is any good
For Americans, that would be like a city called Jizz
Agreed!
Won’t you take me to… Donkey Town
I thought Donkey Town was in Tijuana
I'm sure every country has a list of these
It's not exclusive to the uk
You could have just said "Dull", it would have been quicker
I'm here to waste time, not to save it
Yes, I've seen plenty. I've heard here in Finland that one explanation for some of the bizarre and let us say rude names is cartographers going around asking people what this or that place is called and people having fun with it or just fucking with them. And I think a lot of people just find it amusing in general. "Hey, that hill looks like a tit. Titty hill. Hehe."
Great Snoring
Missing Cockermouth
Cockermouth
? I hardly know her!
And Penistone.
I travel through Boring Oregon (just outside of Portland) who's sister city is Dull, so I guess that's me
Not as long as OPs but has some real goodies.
I bet Horrid Hill is actually a nicer place that tried to keep people away. Like a real life Scooby doo town.
Lost is smack in the middle of the world's best whiskey.
Missing Wyre Piddle
You could your life story based on where you lived if you just kept moving about Britain.
There's always Westward Ho! which has to be spelled with an exclamation mark like that, as if they'd let boomer facebook name a town.
There's a town called Barrow-in-Furness which officially has the dashes in it.
Westward Ho!
Canada has Saint-Louis-du-Ha! Ha!
I'm a personal fan of Ham, which is located right next to Sandwich! Just don't confuse it with Finglesham, deal?
I'm from the UK and thought these had to be fake til I saw Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch.
Nope, all real.
I live in between Wide Open and Pity Me and have visited both those places!
Just so you know, that name is new and made up for purely tourist reasons.
New as in 1800s, pretty sure some of these other places didn't exist then too.
And for funsies what's your bank account number too!?
0303-457291!
I lost it at Ae
I'm going to Stranagalwilly tonight.
oh Im Catbrain for sure
