Have seen that before and got a laugh. Unfortunately it's just a good photoshop image. Not actually any such place. My real favorites are places like Condom in France and Gofuku in Japan or even the Bavarian town of Wank

.

Of course we've still got Intercourse, PA!!

Figured it was a fake....but a good one. I'm sure you know that Blue Ball is before you get (to) Intercourse and not far from Leacock & Bareville. Some of the Amish had fun with names!!!!

And you passed through Cumming to get there!

An old joke in these parts is that Alpharetta, the town closest to Cumming, was going to change its name to Moaning...

Someone needs to map out a road trip of cties and towns with stupid or dirty place names.

If you want strange name for cities. How about Tight Wad, MO & Peculiar, MO or last but not least Noel, MO. Tight Wad is just a little spot on the road in central Missouri with a population of maybe 300 people. They have a bank called the Bank of Tight Wad. They have huge number of checking accounts, in the thousands, because people like to have check that say " Bank of Tight Wad" !! LOL

Have been through all those. Peculiar is right on the highway to Kansas City and Noel is less than an hour south. It's pronounced Nole but still every year there little post office gets inundated with Christmas cards from all over to get the Noel postmark. Tight Wad is my favorite city/town name in the state though. It makes me smile just thinking what the people who founded the place must have been like.

Now back in the 70's when I lived in the Big City of Roswell, Cumming was a dot on the map while on the way to Lake Lanier and Bald Ridge Marina.

Of course back then there was Junior Samples and his used car lot.
