There's no way Pee Pee Township is a real place

Had a friend from Reading who always liked to talk about the dirty names in PA. I had to google to find them again. Intercourse is relatively tame among that list. There is also:

Big Beaver
Blue Ball
Climax
Puseyville
Rough and Ready
Twolick Valley
Virginville

[–] Cruxifux@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

How is rough and ready a town name

[–] LetKCater2U@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 years ago

2 town names. According to this map there’s also one in California.

[–] Daft_ish@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Spoken like someone who grew up in Virginville.

[–] PopShark@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

In Michigan there is a freeway exit 69 onto a road called Big Beaver lol

Can't believe you wouldn't go with Cumming, Georgia...

[–] Dagamant@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago

I saw butts on the list and knew someone didn’t check too hard.

[–] Nusm@lemm.ee 11 points 2 years ago

And Butts isn't even a town, it's a county.

[–] dalekcaan@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago

Seriously, just today I saw a billboard for Toyota Beaver of Cumming. Fucking iconic.

In florida there is this little known state forest called Withlacoochee

[–] Decoy321@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

I was gonna say! There are far dirtier places then Micosukee, which isn't even pronounced with "suck." "Mih-coh-soo-kee".

After all, we've got Chatahoochee, Boca Raton (" Rat Mouth"), Fluffy Landing, and the dirtiest of all, Hialeah.

That last one's name is innocuous, it's just a terrible place.

[–] FloMo@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Am from Hialeah. Feeling pretty called out LMAO

Can’t argue it though.

[–] Pirky@lemmy.world 16 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Dude, there's literally a Gay, MI. Or Gaylord, MI if you're noble.

[–] Stamets@startrek.website 10 points 2 years ago (3 children)

Where I'm from there's a place called Dildo

[–] Nepenthe@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago

Checking in from NC — we also have Hookertown and Hobgood

Bonelick, KY. Home of Big Bone Lick State Park, and no, I'm not making that up

It was a rather important salt lick in both Ancient, and Early America. Good place to harvest salt, and some of the critters that came to lick the salt lick.

Let's not forget about Fucking, Austria.

I'm going to have to disagree with their choice for NY. I would have gone with Coxsackie, but I also have a child's sense of humour sometimes.

[–] BB69@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (1 children)

There’s actually a Big Bone Lick in Kentucky

Pretty sure Cumming, GA wins over Butts.

[–] Grellan@lemm.ee 7 points 2 years ago

I used to live just outside of Climax, GA. It's surprising how far Cumming is from Climax, and also how much I get to use that joke.

I know it's Dick, but I'm more partial to Climax in Michigan.

Probably cause I had to see a woman in Climax for work once.

Beaver, Utah would like to know how Virgin ended up on the map instead.

[–] Rootiest@lemm.ee 6 points 2 years ago

Probably just something about Utah

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago

They missed out on Toad Suck, AR.

[–] 10_dollar_banana@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Missed out on Mianus, CT.

[–] DerArzt@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm sitting over here knowing that there is a Cumming, IA....

Okay, Cozy Corner is very G-rated and cute.

[–] kholby@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

They picked Ballplay, AL instead of Smut Eye?

[–] Hobbes@startrek.website 6 points 2 years ago

How do you go with Virgin instead of Beaver for Utah?

[–] ComfortablyGlum@sh.itjust.works 6 points 2 years ago

Surely Vermont can do better than "Cozy Corner". We do have "Middlesex", and (while not a town) "Ticklenaked Pond".

[–] HankMardukas@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Dix, Illinois.

Basically nowhere.

[–] Sewer_King@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

No mention of Goochland, Virginia in sight.

[–] teft@startrek.website 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Bangor isn’t pronounced like they do on the west coast. The city is pronounced like Bang Gore. Out west the same spelling is pronounced like Banger as in Naval Submarine Base Bangor.

[–] CarlsIII@kbin.social 7 points 2 years ago

Bang Gore

That seems so much worse

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 5 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Rough and Ready Island isn't as rough or ready as its name implies.

[–] anthoniix@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Cummings, GA is way more lude than butts.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Indiana also has Gnaw Bone.

[–] tonamel@kbin.social 5 points 2 years ago

And let's not forget French Lick!

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

Bigbone is right next to Beaverlick, which is ostensibly dirtier.

[–] Dr_Fetus_Jackson@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I grew up not far from Weiner, Arkansas, but Bald Knob always made me snicker more as a teenager.
