Ytterby?
there is a place in f*nland called bear’s asshole. it is in no way the only place w/ a name like this. why yes i have in fact experienced schlong lake.
js the country is a shit hole BUT having just one scientific thing named after a bizarre location there would do a lil bit to redeem it maybe
this is also the only redeeming feature of terf island, it has an unlimited quantity of extremely rude place names.
but then again, there is a place in spain that basically translates as “the fuck”, as in the act of fucking
In Denmark there is a town whose name can be translated as “dick”. The next town over is named “intestine”. If you drive south you can cross the border to Germany in a village named “semen”. Don’t go north though or you might end up in the joyful village literally named “darkness”, you will have a better time in “beer place”.
