"SlepΓ‘" which means blind. With "street", it would become "SlepΓ‘ ulica", meaning "Dead end". Ultimate troll.

Darcelle Street

For context, Darcelle was a the oldest drag performer who passed away recently and he was a huge part of the city

There's a law in place that we have to wait 5 years to change a street name to be named after someone who passed away and the amount of support that street name change already has means it'll likely happen

Root Mean Square.

"Cul de Sac Street" which would also be a state highway. Just to confuse people.

Seems like the sort of thing my city would do.

Baker Street. And then I'd buy the block of land numbered 221, subdivide it, and turn 221B into a tourist spot.

Neighbouring town has a street called Pig Lane. Where the police station is. Perfection.

Street Rd. It should intersect with Road St.

Oh, why yes, I'd like to see the world on fire. Regular gasoline is fine, thank you.

I'd like to see an old classic brought back. Gropecunt Lane.
