Oxigen_Waste Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Ok, let's just get this out the way already, Liverpool is the dumbest name ever invented for a city. Anywhere. Anyway, name cities or villages or streets or whatever that have dumb or funny names, that you know of. You know, like Shitterton, Sexmoan, Nob End, Thong, Ugley, Bitchfield, Crapstone, Upper Dicker, Pratt's Bottom or Satan. And the classic: Here in portugal, very near to my and the don's hometown, there is a legendary village wich is called "Fail". Litteraly. That's the name. No translations or anything... just... fail. Then there's loads of lands with dumb names, like: LAND - MEANING Picha - Cock/dick/slang for penis. Berço Da Cona - Pussy Cradle Rata - Pussy Colhões - Balls. As in testicles. Raita de Pepino - Cuccumber pussy. Bicos - Blowjobs Anais - Anals Paus - Sticks Malhou - When someone falls down, we say he "malhou"(fell). Sarilhos Pequenos - Small Trouble Porreiras - Erm. Sorta like "cool", as if it's refering to a person. Matacães - Dog Killer Vale do Porco - Pig Valley Cornalheira - lol... Hornery (from horns, as in bull's horns) A-da-Gorda - "Fat lady's" literally Aliviada - Relieved Às 10 - At 10 Baleia - Whale Bexiga - Blatter Cabeçudos - Big Headed Cabrão - An insult that literally means "big goat" but is more like "motherfucker" or so. Cabrões - Same as above. In plural. Cama Porca - Dirty bed. Campa Do Preto - Black Man's Grave Catraia Do Buraco - Youg lass of the hole. Cemitério - Graveyard Chiqueiro - Pigsty Focinho De Cão - Dog Snout Garanhão - Stud HospÃcio - Mental Hospital Imaginário - Imaginary Mal Lavado - Poorly washed Mata Porcas - Pig killer, in feminine. Paitorto - Crooked dad. Passado - Past. Pedaço Mau - Bad Piece Pobreza - Poverty Pés Escaldados - Scalded Feet Punhete - Handjob (wich is a fem. word here) in masc. Quinta De Comichão - Itch Farm Rabo de Porco - Pig's Ass Terra Da Gaja - Broad's Land Traseiros - Behinds Vale Da Rata - Pussy Valley Vale De Mortos - Valley Of Dead Venda Da Porca - Pig's Sale Venda Dos Pretos - Blacks (as in people) Sale Violência - Violence Colo Do Pito - Pussy's lap. Herm... yeah, you got it by now. Contribute! EDIT: Forgot about Shittlehope and Shitlington Crags.
Ashley Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Theres a place near here called 'Suckley' which makes me laugh because it sounds like an awful place to live.
D_prOdigy Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 I believe Gary Glitter now resides on a small, densely bushed lane called Fanci'a Drive.
Gizmo Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 I believe France has alot of them. Brest, Bitche, Condom, etc. And I've heard of a plce called "Likswang" in China too
Charlie Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 There's a place near Loch Lomond called "Rest and Be Thankful" which is quite weird for a place name. In Northern Irsland we drove through a place called Ballybogey. Stank Road rings a bell too.
Aalborg Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Fucking ! legend.. Anyway here in DK we have a town called Middelfart... not that amusing to us as it translates into something like Middle Speed... but to brits visiting its probably pretty funny oh and not a place.. but a very know candy here in DK is called SPUNK.. you can even get a t shirt with the name.. hmmm
MoogleViper Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Pocket Handkercheif Lane near us always makes my dad laugh.
Jimbob Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 There is a small town in Crete called Pig, quite funny depending on how drunk you are really. And i am surprised noone as mentioned Scunthorpe
darksnowman Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 In Northern Irsland we drove through a place called Ballybogey. Were you going to Portrush I take it?
Falcon_BlizZACK Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Arsenal and Cockfosters...^^ Both on the same Piccadily tube line. Piccadily...Who come up with these names?
Ramar Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Arsenal and Cockfosters...^^ Both on the same Piccadily tube line. Piccadily...Who come up with these names? Arsenal station is named after the team, it's original name was Gillespie Road.. I guess as an Arsenal fan I really don't see the funny or dumbness of the name. Anyway, a little village near me is called Cockenhoe.. cock in ho.. O_o
stev2604 Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Horse and Jockey, not really funny, just strange. Cockfosters... Haha, the first time I was on that line on the tube the screen read "This train is for Cockfosters". I thought it was a joke at first and that someone had edited the screen!
Shino Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 "Puta que pariu" means something like Son of a Bitch, and its a neighbourhood in Brazil.
Dog-amoto Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 I take my dogs for a walk up to Nob End which is a field in Bolton
Strider Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 There's the 'Devil's arse' in the peak district, although that name's intentional. That's about all i know.
MoogleViper Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 You forgot Fail! Here in portugal, very near to my and the don's hometown, there is a legendary village wich is called "Fail". Litteraly. That's the name. No translations or anything... just... fail. Read the thread Hellfire.
The fish Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 There's the 'Devil's arse' in the peak district, although that name's intentional. That's about all i know. I've been in the Devil's Arse! As Ramar said, there's a village called Cockenhoe near here. I have a photo of my somewhere by a street sign in the Highlands somewhere. Road's name? Gay Lane Terrace. People always find "Berliner" (as in a person from Berlin) funny, once they find in German, "Berliner" means "doughnut". Personally, I find Essen (a city in Germany) funnier. Why? "Essen" is Germany for "ate". Well, I thought it was funny...
Charlie Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Were you going to Portrush I take it? No idea, it was years ago and we were staying with relatives who lived in the army part.
MoogleViper Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 ... Your mom! That's more of a scary place rather than a funny place.
Hellfire Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 That's more of a scary place rather than a funny place. Your mom??
Gizmo Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Arsenal and Cockfosters...^^ Both on the same Piccadily tube line. Piccadily...Who come up with these names? There were three Football fans involved in a plane crash. When they ran out of food, they decided to honour their clubs. The Liverpool fan decided to eat his Liver, and consequently died. The Hearts fan decided to eat his Heart, and consequently died. The Arsenal fan decided he wasn't hungry and consequently was rescued when a boat sailed past 5 minutes later. the old classics are the best
