Fraccers

Some of us live in cities or towns with silly names. We chuckle at names like Ta Ta Creek (Canada), Boysack (Scotland), Trim (Ireland), Clap Hill (United Kingdom), Tittisee (Germany), Cockintake (United Kingdom, Ballplay (Tennessee), Caulkerbush (Scotland), Bohner’s Lake (Wisconsin) and Backside (Scotland).  There are towns the world over, with names that cause someone, somewhere to break out in the giggles. 

Towns with names like those pictured in the street signs below…

Would you tell people where you live? Would you wear it on a shirt?

How about these?

If you live in one of these towns, stop and say hi… tell us whether you’re proud to live in a town with such a name, or if you’re embarassed. What do you do to avoid the giggles?

For everyone else… here’s a question…

If you had to choose one town from this posting, and move there… which would it be and why?
