    From Wikipedia:

    "Felching is a sexual practice in which semen is sucked out of another person's anus. The individual sucking the semen may swallow it or pass it, mouth to mouth, to a partner. The colloquial term for the latter act is snowballing."

    Used to live near Skunks Misery Rd

    Skunks Misery Rd Street Sign

    Now I live near Roast Meat Hill Road. I am told it was named after a barn full of cows burned in the 1800s. Whatever the story, its a really bad street name.

    Not weird necessarily, but I hated ordering stuff by phone and having to spell my entire address "1586 west placita rio pecos - Sahuarita, AZ" don't even get me started on giving directions to my house to people who weren't from Arizona, hehe. "i-19 south to Sahuarita Rd, west to La Canada, South to Via Muleje, West to E Calle Armonioso, south the placita rio pecos." Followed by short pause and "La can-what now?"

    I seem to remember a Roast Meat Hill from when I was a kid growing up down in CT. Same one?

    There is a road in NW Ohio that crosses over the I-80 toll road named Fangboner Road.

    The classic from the Detroit area is Exit 69: Big Beaver Road off of I think I-75.

    You see, in this world there's two kinds of people, my friend: Those with loaded guns and those who dig. You dig.

    Definitely Killingworth. Drive by it everyday. Small world indeed.

    There's also something odd about the "Lunt Road" underpass (or is it overpass) on the Maine Turnpike.

    strawjack - I still crack up when I see the Ten Rod Road exit. My wife finds it.....not so funny.

    There's a road out in the country in western Maryland that I always shake my head when I drive by - Dung Hill Rd.

    "Sharts Road", off of the Springboro, OH exit on I-75.
    I think that the human mind is unique among all other forms of life in that it can spontaneously create unique thoughts and provide unique behaviors. Instead of rewarding that uniqueness we, for some reason probably because of cultural and social necessity, we chastise unique behavior and reward conformity.

    Yeah, it's technically a town, not a road. Still one of the best road signs ever, though.

    I once dated a girl who lived on Easy street. She wasn't well off, but she was easy.

    Yes, the Big Beaver one is correct.

    We also have exit 168 Beaver Rd.

    And my favorite, it's really 2 signs... New Love Ln. Dead End. I'll snap a picture next time I go by.
    Since then it's been a book you read in reverse, so you understand less as the pages turn.

    The things you find on the net.
