Indulge yourself in all things immature with this fantastic interactive world map featuring vaguely rude place names. There really are some humdingers in here…
Mark Twain once said that ‘truth is stranger than fiction’, and judging by this interactive map created by the self-confessed ‘map geek’ Gary Gale, it can be a lot funnier too. Especially when you learn that ‘Shyte Brook’ and ‘Minge Lane’ are real places over in the UK.
We all know about Muff, up in Co. Donegal and Nobber, in Co. Meath, but what other vaguely rude place names do we have in Ireland according to Gary Gale’s map? Well, we’ve listed them below for your enjoyment…
Ringrash Road, Co. Derry
Cum, Co. Mayo
Hackballs Cross, Co. Louth
Termonfeckin, Co. Louth
Meelick, Co. Galway
Effin, Co. Limerick
Bastardstown, Co. Wexford
Ringville, Waterford
Dripsey, Co. Cork
While there are some pretty funny place names in Ireland, there are some absolutely hilarious names dotted around the world, and you don’t even have to look too far to find them.
For instance, there’s ‘Butthole Lane’ in Leicestershire over in the UK and ‘Weener’ over in Germany. We also feel like ‘Shag Point’ in New Zealand deserves a mention too…
