We also have a city in this state by the name of "City of Industry." Not simply "Industry" but "City of Industry." And "Carmel by the Sea" as opposed to just "Carmel" or "Carmel by the Dumpster Fire off 99."
Leaving out the ʻokina and kahakō changes the sound significantly. The ʻokina represents a glottal stop, the sound in the middle of "uh-oh". In Hawaiian, it's a letter of the alphabet. The kahakō (macron, the horizontal line over a vowel) means the vowel is long - as in pronounced for a beat longer. What we call long and short vowels in English should be considered different vowels because they are different sounds.
Hōnaunau-Nāpōʻopʻo
Is
Hohh nah oo nah oo Nahh pohh ohp oh
It's hard to transcribe, I hope that's of interest to someone. He haumana a ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi au. I'm still early in my learning.
Washington has Tillicum and Georgia has Cumming. This map was not well thought out
I love Cumming, ^GA
North Dakota had better have absolutely nothing else even slightly risque, in order to have any hope of justifying its theft of GA's rightful entry.
"Tulsa" is just "a slut" spelled backwards.
Yeah but Oklahoma has a small town called Peggs
We have plenty of funny town names here, but my favorites are Hooker, Slapout, Stringtown, and Hoot Owl.
"Peggs" is just "Sggep" spelled backwards.
I refuse to believe there is a town in America called Rough&Ready
I was literally there today 🤣

Thats crazy. I mean my country has some goofy names for small towns and villages but this takes it to another level entirely
Here you go!
it takes less than two hours to get from bonesteel to gayville.
That's what I like to hear
Only Ohio would have pee pee township lmao
Pee pee is my favorite township
What about Cumming, GA
I'm guessing it's because the map already has Cummings.
But Butts isn't even a town; it's a county.
This map is wack. It should be Cumming!
men can never seem to find it
the states containing Dry Wood and Lubers are bordering each other, yet the wood remains dry
Curious
Bigbone, KY is home to a nice state park called Big Bone Lick.
They have Bison. Went there a few weeks ago. Pretty cool park!
That's the best lick I've heard of.
And if we’re going with parks there’s world famous Gobbler’s Knob in Punxsutawney, PA! (as in Punxsutawney Phil and Groundhog Day)
“Cozy corner” isn’t actually that bad of a town name
At night, it becomes wanker's corner
There is a Gross Tête, Louisiana too
Napo'opo'o isn't 'Na poo poo'
That makes perfect sense
Right.

Americans understand glottal stops challenge (improbable 💪)
We use them all the time but we're generally unaware of it. Like in "uh-oh".
That's leaving aside that Hawaiians ARE Americans, thanks to the Dole fruit company.
"HOE-NOW-NOW NAH-POO-POO"
no horneytown NC?
Goochland, Virginia is underrepresented here.
there are more lewd souding towns in Virginia than short pump
The road from Blue Ball to Paradise runs through Intercourse.
As it should.
They choose Kiester over Gaylord, Moorhead (morehead), or Climax‽
Tbf Climax was already on the map. Moorhead is pretty good though
Tbf it's technically just part of a town and not an actual town but there is Mianus CT
Mary’s Igloo is too much for me.
Yeah it's a quality igloo
Bald Knob Arkansas is way more lewd than Weiner
I mean, Dry Wood is good for Kansas, but Seaman also makes a strong showing as does Great Bend and Cawker City.
I don't know man, I live in Iowa and we have balltown and cumming (not sure which is better)
What is Humptulips...

For New York: Butternuts is funny but how could they pick it over Coxsackie?
They're just tired of it probably
Texas should have corpus christi written on it 🥵
hot Jesús body
Vermont has also Essex Junction, Proctor, Middlesex, Shaftsbury, and Hardwick.
Shaftsbury is pretty good
Glaze City, TX should be a contender as well.
Ding Dong or Bangs I think are both better too
Oh god essex really has gone through a new meaning
Someone explain ballplay to me
Oh, PA probably gets way weirder than Intercourse.
Also doesn't MI have Exit 69: Big Beaver Rd? Also there's Hell, MI. Those are both way better than Dick, MI.
Is no one gonna talk about Splunge?
