who names a street 'arbour butte road'?
My favourite was one in upstate NY called Devil's Den Road. I'd have lived there. We have bizarre enough place names up here that we don't need weird road names (but we have them anyway). Would you like to live in Chibougamau? How about Abitibi-Témiscamingue? Or on the shores of lovely lake Memphrémagog? St. Clet? St. Chrystostome? (A lot of them are French variations on Native names, they're still a bit strange. And they'd dig up the most obscure names for saints to use, too).
I don't know about the French pronunciation; I've always heard it pronounced "byoot". It's popular in the southwest of the US. It means a hill, basically.
There's a county in California named Butte, and Butte College.
Don't forget about Butte, Montana! Actually, I think everyone forgot Montana. It basically doesn't exist.
I live in Arbor Crescent...
My favourite is still Butt Hill Drive.
Yeah that's kinda like living on "one tree hill" same general meaning and its pronunciation is nothing like butt
In my town there are two off roads that intersect called Pelican Drive and Seagull Rd. Obviously named after the ancient rivalry between king Pelicanos and and King Seagullos in the ancient times.
There's a street in my city called "Shinglecreek". I have no idea why. Nothing about a creek full of shingles sounds enticing.
My gastro doc is on belcher rd. I asked him if he did that on purpose
My cousins live on booger hill road. It always made me smile coming to their house when I was young.
My town has two streets called roadrunner and coyote. And yes, they intersect.
Canadians, apparently.
Meh. It's not that weird compared to some road names I've heard. Heck, I used to live in a town that has a "Slaughterhouse Lane", "Murdering Creek Road", and "Butt Street", and once went on vacation near a place called "Stinking Beach". And near my current home is a crematorium on "Killers Road"...which I hope wasn't intentional. o.O
My Dad used to be a trucker, and in the 90's he drove a truck with a CB radio in it. Since most Quebec truckers don't speak English (or if they do, they have some trouble understanding a Southern accent over the radio), Dad spent a lot of time redirecting lost Americans, including a guy from Tennessee who was driving around for an hour and a half looking for 'Pee Noof'. Dad told him "Look for Pie, Roman numeral nine, IX. Pie IX. I can't believe they told you the French pronunciation but didn't spell it out for you." - The guy found it within five minutes, because Pie IX is a main road in Montreal. He also got to redirect a lot of people looking for 'Dorchester' to 'René-Lévesque' - they renamed the boulevard and some older maps still had Dorchester on it then.
There's a road near where I live called Jackass Lane. Narrowest, steepest, windiest road you'll ever drive down, so it deserves it's name. There's also a place called Pratt's Bottom I used to drive through to get to school.
My town has a street named Snoddy Road.
I live on a road called crab apple way
my friend lived on 'banff lane' for awhile
He's also asstronomicly stupid
He sounds like an asscandle
he needs to be assassinated
I'd have bought it just SO I could fill out "Arbour Butte Road" every time I had to write an address.
Yes, I still watch that show every Saturday! I'm not the only one to think that!
Haha, it's a great show!
14 - vicar. And he doesn't want to drink tea with you.
Just because you don't agree with him does not make him stupid. He has a valid point. You can't deny what the road's name sounds like.
It still isn't a good enough excuse to not buy the house that was perfect for them.
"Butte" is not pronounced like "butt" though. So yes, the husband is an idiot.
The husband's concern is what I was talking about. It's an idiotic excuse.
Since your husband hasn't said anything important on the house, you should buy it. I mean, who's going to care?
im guessing the husband
Arbour Butte sounds sexy as hell! You know--Your stripper stage name is your first pet's name and the street that you lived on. ***I'm Frisky Nightingale. (:
8- Aspen Maples over here. ;P
My stripper name sucks. I'm Goldfish St. Andrew. If it were my SECOND pet's name? Then I'd be Bee Jay St. Andrew.
Idk, it remind me of Ryan Reynolds, who would make a fine stripper ;)
Max short... Doesn't sound very good does it? sort of contradictory with just a hint that I have a small dick.
Well suddenly decide your goldfish is female and be goldy Madison
Tiko Deerfield. kinda exotic I like it!
Moza rayhanat al jazeerah :/
Missy buffalo!
Little Foot Cornell ...Ok, maybe the second pet will be better: Ms. Piggy Cornell ...Nope, let's try third pet: Goldie Cornell ...That's it, I'm not allowed to name pets, anymore.
Well I'm booboo oak
fluffy lasalette. yup pretty sexy if you change it up a bit to fluffy laslut lol
Simba Poinciana Bubbles Poinciana Azure Poinciana Padfoot Poinciana Mitch Lucker/Lucky Poinciana Aurora Poinciana I think I'll go with the last one.
Huh. Somehow, "Peaches 100 East" doesn't sound too catchy. I guess that's why Mormon's don't make good strippers - Utah's street names are decidedly un-sexy.
Jewels Darby. Hmm, not bad...
Maybe it's talking about your chest, I hear some guys are into that? I'm sorry even I can't find a way to redeem your stripper name.
Hmm. Fluffy Empire
Gandalf méttanie. That just doesn't work. :U
Actually, I forgot about my cat as a baby, einstien empire, eh, I like fluffy emire better
Sophie Byron...well darn I guess I can't be a stripper now!
I'm not sure of the solution here.. I guess I'm stumped!
