Texas checking in... We don't have as good of names like that but we have cities like Paris, Athens, and Odessa, TX. I think there are maybe 20 to 25 international city names that would make a fascinating road trip and probably be over 1K miles/1600 Km.
you can claim you traveled to all those cities and hope people don't have a follow-up question
You can go see the Parthenon (full scale) and a Pyramid (not accurate) in Tennessee
There are some random things around the U.S. that often get overlooked.
Since I've seen this route i constantly came
You missed out Minge Lane.
I've always liked that one. On a scale of fanny to gash, how impolite is it considered over there?
It was very popular in the mid-2000s but I don't think I've heard anyone use it since then. I'd say somewhere in the middle.
The best part about Shitterton is that the name comes from "sewer town." Not another language, no alternate meaning, it is just as it sounds in modern English.
The sign for Shitterton had to be carved out of a big chunk of local stone, because the normal metal ones kept getting nicked. Obviously.
"I tried out that shit barber shop, not bad!"
Still avoids Scunthorpe. There is no good reason to visit Scunthorpe.
I’ve only learned the name “Scunthorpe” recently because I was reading up on a band I really like from there. I remember noting that it was about the ugliest name for a town I could think of that doesn’t actually contain any recognizable words… but I would assume it’s a perfectly lovely place regardless of that
I always thought Twatt and Shitterton were so close to each other... Shows what I know
Quick, someone print out and photocopy this photo
I am equally impressed that the journey is over 1k miles, considering the entire island is about 600 miles top to bottom. An extra 400 miles of no straight roads.
I heard the phrase, "as the bird flies" recently in reference to the 600 miles type of measurement and thought that was neat
"As the crow flies" is a pretty common expression on this very isle
I just confirmed that all of those places are real as depicted
Nothing beats, Fucking, Austria:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fugging,_Upper_Austria
"Fugging (German: [ˈfʊkɪŋ] ⓘ), spelled Fucking until 2021, is an Austrian village (...)
Augustina Lindlbauer, the manager of an area guesthouse, said that the area had lakes, forests, and vistas worth visiting, but there was an "obsession with Fucking", and she had to explain to a British tourist "that there were no Fucking postcards".
I refuse to spell it any other way than Fucking.
"needlessly facetious comment from when I was in a bad mood edited to this"
No Bell End or Wetwang?
If you want a shorter trip you can go from Blue Ball to Paradise. The road goes through Intercourse.
Lots of side trips available to places such as Upper and Lower Dicker (East Sussex), Scratchy Bottom (Dorset) and Minge Lane (Worcestershire).
Lmaoo Glasgow
Ass Hill, you say 👀
Hey Assman!
Here in Ohio you can go from Dayton to Marion in four hours but it's a commitment
I'm from Engagement Ohio. It's right between Dayton and Marion

They have twatt swag too!
Ooh, I should be near a few of these in a couple weeks. Might as well make the stop.
