Hypothetical Books That Would Be Controversial If They Existed #1

A Post That Will Be Updated As Soon As I Get Un-Lazy Enough To Photoshop More Covers.

Real Places in the Real World

So I recently discovered Facebook will no longer allow you to create fake hometowns on your main profile page. This is a downer. However, it is also a huge blessing in disguise, as it now helps you find the name of the town you are looking for. In the wrong hands, this is a hugely useful tool for finding the best place names in the world. Oh, and the flag of Mozambique is hardly related to this post, but it does have an AK on it, which is pretty rad.

List of Places (and some of these definitely aren't pronounced the way I think they are, but whatev)

Batman, Turkey
Shit, Iran
Fucking, Austria
Dead Chinaman, Papua New Guinea
Anuscat, Haiti
Hell, Norway
Tupac, Philippines
Dude, Pakistan
Assmanns, Poland
Zombi, Haiti
Igloo, AK
Satan, North Korea
Badasso, Côte d'Ivoire
Good Grief, ID
Nas, Philippines
Terror, Venezuela
Anger, Germany
Hate, Czech Republic
Love, The Bahamas
Slave Island, Sri Lanka

And for the man who has everything...a tie-rack motor!

OK, so if you've been on airplanes, you've probably seen Sky Mall, the magazine in which you can order all kinds of rad things.
