When we look back in history, most of us seek past knowledge, or perhaps ways of living. It could be protective measures to ensure that our families are safe and sound, so that we can continue the lineage. We could be seeking higher ground and simply a better way. Let’s look at some funny city names from North America. They include Chicken, Alaska, named because residents couldn’t spell “ptarmigan,” and Hell, Michigan, a town that embraces its humorous name.
Other notable examples are Ding Dong, Texas, named after bells on a sign for a store, and Accident, Maryland, whose residents are ironically called “Accidentals” Many North Americans think that they have the patent on this kind of shenanigans, but, no surprise, they’re not the only ones. Are you ready? Ladies and gentlemen, behold the funny names of Chile. We will leave the deciphering to you. Cumpeo = Semen fart. Peor es nada (worse is nothing) and it’s a really beautiful little town next to a huge reservoir. Super ironic.


Next, Panty-Dropper. Need we say more? A reader writes “I always laugh when I see they have a place called Bio Bio. Similarly, one contributor offers Whenever I go down 5 Sur, I remember “Peor es Nada” (Worse is Nothing a horcajadas entre dos discreciones….) And finally, capacity to pass judgement” the person’s freedom seems to depend on a joint decision of the doctors and the jail. We’re sure it’s worth the chase.
