Quoting your quote of this picture.
I WIN
Existence is a series of catastrophes through which everything barely but continually survives.

Moose Factory was once Fort St. Louis. Imagine if the Cookout were there. BRRR! I didn't find anything about making moose there (probably a secret). Without Law and Order and Jonathan Cheechoo, no one would know anything about this place.Ahaugen wrote:Okotoks, Olds, Moose Factory (where they make the mooses), Dildo, Medicine Hat, Wetaskawin, Lloydminster, BarnwellJesusabdullah wrote:EVERYONE KNOWS, huh?
So what other totally screwed up town names are there in Canadia?
Florida and the Southeast have screwed up town names, too:
FL: Ochopee (OUCH!), Christmas, Lake June in Winter, Howey-in-the-Hills (ALWAYS on TV), Two Egg, Yankeetown (in DIXIE County), Perry, Wetumpka, Micanopy.
GA: Ty Ty, Cumming, Jesup, Midway (to what?)
SC: Kingstree, Barnwell, Ninety Six
NC: There was an offensive one (to Italians anyway) in the western mountains that I don't remember (EDIT: It was Cullowhee). And Statesville, too.
VA: So many in Western VA that it isn't funny. Fancy Gap comes to mind.
WV: Nitro, Hurricane (hurricanes in WV?), Mingo Junction
KY: Hazard, Sturgis (no motorcycle races here)
TN: Chattanooga
MS: Biloxi is weird to me.
AL: Nothing comes to mind.
LA: Pumpkin Center, Part of St. Martin, Iowa, Sulphur Springs (yuck!)
(eastern) TX: Hitchcock, Orange (Oranges in Texas?)
AR is southeast, too, but I haven't been there. Same for the Boot Heel of MO (AKA Kolterland).
...doesn't Canada also have Swastika, Hearts Content, Moosomin (and Moosonee, but that's on the page), and, of course, Alert? It once had Snowdrift, too, but that was changed.
Moosomin- have embarrassing antler marks? Try MOOSOMIN! It'll remove those pesky antler marks fast!
The rest of the US has weird names, too.

I got a shotglass from Intercourse, Pennsylvania. Other fun names from the same state include Blue Ball, and Bird-In-Hand.
Isn't there a Hell, Michigan?

My dad and I ran across this one when my brother had his oath ceremony:

Not funny, or anything, but I thought it was interesting.

We took a pit stop in Santa Claus, IN and of course drove pass Shelbyville and Simpsonville.
Re: Alter Egos 11: The Way I Are.
Um Iowa isn't an odd name for a city. The city itself though is a crap hole.
But we also have Iota
Butte Le Rose
Baton Rouge ...red stick...seriously wtf (I know WHY it's called that I was forced to take an awful lot of Louisiana history you know)
We have a city named Robert....really...Robert...like a person or something
not to mention the plethora of Native America named cities we have....or the French...or the Spanish...
and as I always wrap up a Louisiana related post
NEVER COME HERE

Re: Alter Egos 11: The Way I Are.
Texas has quite a few weird ones. But of course I can't remember them now that we're talking about it. The famous ones that I can remember are: Sugarland, Killgore, Loving... I can't remember the rest.
Killgore was really famous during the election with Al Gore. Every one in Texas at some time or other heard the dumb joke, "What's George Bush's favorite town in Texas?" (pause for the pun) "KILLGORE!" Then the guy that told the joke would laugh a lot while every one else chuckled at him for being retarted.

I'm glad 90's style forum signatures don't exist anymore.

As far as I know, most of the weird names around here are taken from native words. Nothing too clever like "Hell, Michigan" or whatever. The only place I can think of right now is Honolulu Creek. Not particularly weird, but the name's still rather nifty.

I have a friend at Insomniac Games, who got the team to sign my copy of Ratchet and Clank: Future.
AWESOME.

You know, i should work on this.
Re: Alter Egos 11: The Way I Are.
I have a webcam now, so to celebrate:
Hmm... Something doesn't feel right today.

What could it be? And why is it so cold in here all of a sudden?

Hang on...

MY HAIR! OH NOOOOOOOOO! Deep crow.

Mystery solved
