A friend recently moved from their address at Faggot Yard Braintree London Good luck ordering pizzas and taxis… Here in sweden there are a good few rude ones due to how language changes over time. Met a woman yesterday who lives on “Hump a Roach Road” (as in the fish) and there is also a Snot Mountain Street and a Yank-My-Nutsack Road. Then there are also The Menstural Marshes etc too. Bizarre 🙂 ---

There’s a street in Boise called Goldenrod. It’s the punchline to the joke, “What do you get when King Midas masturbates?” 😃 In a town called Fruitland there’s an intersection known as the Gayway Junction. ---

Mörtjuksgatan Snorbergsvägen (or something similar) Ryckepungsvägen Mensträsk Ryckepungsvägen was once upon a time (might still be) a dangerous place to walk, it was very likely that someone would “yank your sack” and take all your money 😉 ---

When I read them I remeber having come across Mensträsk earlier. There is also Pungpinan and Kräkångersnoret (feel free to find translations). ---

The Agony of the Nutsack? The Bastard Regrets the Snot? Or the Snot of the Regretted Vomit perhaps? I always wanted to go to The Dyke Bath (Flatbadet) in Stockholm, but mrsIteki wouldn’t bring me _pout_ ---

Oh! And at the front of McGill U. here in Mtl may be found the Roddick Gates. Yes, and in addition to that whenever I say the name for some reason people who don’t know them hear “the Erotic Gates”. ---

My friend lives in Hillcrest, and there is an Essex road near her house. Needless to say, someone is always vadalizing the signs to say “sex” whenever they put up new signs. I guess that one’s not quite inadvertant as far as the vandals are concerned. ---

Dykeland road, in Richmond. I’ve seen all of the others in Richmond, but backlick is up near DC right? Centerville area? slight hijack Speaking of Cox road, a good friend of mine has the last name Cox. I’m trying to get her to marry my friend with the last name Hucker, so she can Hyphenate it. Cox-Hucker. Beautiful 🙂 /slight hijack ---
