PIC: Just one place in Ireland has made this magnificently rude map of world place names

Conor Heneghan

You can probably guess what it is.

Did you guess Bastardstown in Wexford?

If you did, you’d be dead wrong as the only place in Ireland to warrant a place on the ‘Magnificently Rude Map of World Place Names’ is, of course, a small town in northeast Donegal called Muff.

That’s right, the town with its own diving club joins the likes of Titz (Germany), Fucking (Austria) and Bollock (Philippines) on a remarkably rude map that can be yours for just over twenty quid.

The map, which is being sold by a company named Strumpshaw, Tincleton & Giggleswick, is the reward for some eh, extensive, research that covers some of the rudest sounding names on Earth, including Ragged Ass Road, Horneytown and about 50 places ending with the word ‘knob’ in Australia.

Check out the amount of rude names in Europe and north Africa alone…

You can check it out in more detail here and if you act fast, you could probably purchase one to make the perfect gift in time for Christmas.

If you’re going to do that, it’s probably a good idea to get it for an unsophisticated mate of yours as opposed to say, your mother-in-law.
