Honolulu

There’s a state park in Kentucky called “Big Bone Lick”

There’s a village not far from me called Shitterton. It’s actually quite nice despite the name.
Tracy, California.
All I know about it is when my friends car broke down there for two days. Sounded awful.
So yeah, a terrible place for a road trip destination.
Similarly, I’d also say Monroe, Louisiana. To quote an old B-movie from the 50’s “There’s nothing off of I-20!”
There’s no unfortunately named landmarks, just unfortunate people in unfortunate towns.
Can confirm, Tracy is in the middle of nowhere and there’s nothing to do.
Very accurate. But don’t worry, there are worse places along the way!
it sounds so innocuous. What’s wrong with it?
Middelfart in Denmark.
That said, we also have Lolland
Toad Suck, Arkansas. Got a cool pic at the lock and dam, missed the park and the town itself.
Transylvania, Louisiana. Got a pic of the bat painted on the water tower, but the general store/Post Office was closed, so no souvenirs.
I wouldn’t force Louisiana on my worst enemy. The coast is probably fine, but in deep Louisiana, I saw more trash heaps, cars on blocks, and churches than actual businesses or non-dilapidated homes
The coast is just as bad. I’ve done the east arkansas to new Orleans drive. Never again.
There’s a UK road trip that goes from Twatt to Shitterton through Cock Bridge, Dick Place, Cock Alley, Bitchfield, Whores Wood and Ass Hill.
But why is it terrible tho?
Ah I read it as terribly named places for some reason
I think that’s what OP did mean given the examples.
You’re fine, OP’s question isn’t terribly clear
We should… we should kill OP, correct?
Athol. It’s in Mathachuthetts.
Jokes aside the town does suck.
I’m from Massachusetts. I don’t think I have ever heard anyone say they were going to Athol for any reason.
Precisely. I used to drive through there on my way to/from college. It sucks there.
Hawaii

??? Nobody gets blown up going to NK. And tourists frequently enter by land.
seems like that’s a scenario that’s most likely to happen in burgerland actually
North Korea, you’d get blown up and killed
