How not to name your city/country for Beginners

After long and arduous study I have come to the firm conclusion that it is extremely unwise to name your city/country beginning with the letter B, its just asking for trouble.

Beirut, Bosnia, Baghdad, Berlin, Belgrade, Belfast, The Balkans…

Need I go on? The proof is plain for all to see! :eek:

Just wait, Barbados is about to decide into a bloody civil war any day now…

We’ve seen the chaos to envelop Boston in the past year.

Come to think of it, I’ve always had crappy service staying at Best Western hotels. Beans cause gas. Biker Bars are clearly doubly dangerous.

It’s the entire letter! Boycott (err, protest against by not using. Ha! Avoided starting a word with the cursed letter!) the letter B!!!

BELGIUM!!!

A beer for anyone who gets the refrence

… Burma, Burundi, Banja Luca, Bahrain, Banda Aceh, Bangalore, Bethlehem

… Bangkok, Beijing, Bratislava, Bogota, Bangladesh

… Britain, Bavaria, Belgium, Bahamas?

Watch your language!!!

Dang, beat me to it.

[slinks away, decidedly not hoopy]

If it makes you feel better, you can have the beer. I don’t drink :slight_smile:
(Unless Mycroft Holmes is willing to substitute fritten, in which case they’re mine, all mine!)

Excellent. So wolfstu here’s your patat met and a Grolsch for Only Mostly Dead for coming in a close second.

Thank you, thank you kindly. Dank u wel.

That proves nothing.

You hang yourself with your own words, Banda Aceh is center of the GAM seperatist movement and Burundi has been engaged in a vicious civil war since 1993.

Those other poor benighted places are trembling on the very edge of catastrophe even as we speak!

Oh the humanity

Another good reason to avoid Bakersfield.

Not that I really needed one.

Errrr…I think the whole point was that there’s no correlation, that some are hell-holes and some are paradise. Unless you know something about the Bavarian People’s Front that we don’t.

You may be afraid of pointing out the elephant in the room but I am not!

And again, the capital of Burundi is Bujumbura!

Those poor people, didn’t realise the malign forces of fate such a combination has conjured.

shakes head in despair

On the flip side, we have my hometown of Brick. Check the last paragraph in the Wikipedia writeup.

[Jay] Jersey, represent! [/Jay]

The Illuminati prevented me from previewing. :eek:

Baltimore and Buffalo are the ugliest cities in the United States. But then Newark’s a close third so the letter n is suspect as well.

Things have been going downhill on Betelgeuse for quite some time, and it’s only going to get worse.

Behold! Beautious babes, basking in bust baring bikinis on the Bermuda beach!
