Postby HapSmo19 on Sun Jun 07, 2009 7:20 pm

There are some pretty funny city/town names out there. Let's name all of em'.

I'll name one and then you come back with one that ties in to the theme as best you can(and on and on).

Here we go:

Humptulips, WA

Remind me to visit Pennsylvania one day :)

I guess Virgin City, Utah would be worth a visit too.

Don't forget Come by Chance, Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. (Not to be confused with Come by Chance, New South Wales, Australia.)

You've just got to admire the english sense of humour, especially if you live in Shitlingthorpe (Yorkshire), tho' if you had to say "I'm from Dikshit" (India), I'm sure you wouldn't be smiling :)

I know. What does that mean?

At least we know what Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch means.
(I can pronounce it too).

Childs play :)

Try -
TaumatawhakatangihangakoauauoTamateahaumaitawhitiurehaeaturipukakapikimaungahoronukupokaiwhenuakitanatahu

And yes, I can pronounce it too (tho' my wife would say I'm bastardising her language with my pakeha accent).


means: (I kid you not), The hill of the flute playing by Tamatea,(who was blown hither from afar, had a circumcised penis, grazed his knees climbing mountains, fell on the earth, and encircled the land), to his beloved.

( a bit like me actually, excepting the circumcised bit ;) - whoops, too much information :lol: ).
