Check Out the the Weirdest Town Names from Every State in America

I love a good weird name. Back when I was on the road a lot, I once passed a town called “Natchitoches,” and I’ve always regretted not going.

I also once wanted to start a band called “The World” just so we could have a tour that ended in Hell, Michigan – naturally, the tour would have been called “The World’s Goin’ to Hell!”

The folks at Estately put together a great infographic that shows the weirdest town names in each state in the U.S., and there are some absolute doozies on there!

These Photos of Matching Couples Outfits from the 70s Will Make Your Relationship Seem Inadequate

If I were to pick two words to describe 70s fashion, I’d go with “flamboyant” and “flammable.”

The bright, plastic-based fabrics made this the era of bold, almost outlandish style. It was also the era after the sexual revolution of the 1960s, and women were starting to ditch their skirts and dresses for more masculine styles. Good thing the men back then dressed like peacocks.

Behold, the results:

1. Who wants to look like who, now?

2. The couple in the foreground is creepy.

3. His ‘n’ Hers Bicentennial Fashion.

10+ Japanese Inventions That Are Ready to Change Our Lives

Japan is famous for being constantly on the cutting edge of technology. Let’s face it, some of the best inventions are Japanese, whether they’re actually useful, or just kind of ridiculous.

Personally, there are several items on this list that I’d absolutely shell out money for.

1. This thing that dries off your umbrella in a jiffy.

Internet Can’t Stop Laughing at Guy Who Mistook His GF’s Thermometer for a Pregnancy Test

When Izaak Torres of Costa Mesa, California got a text saying “Holy fuck,” from his girlfriend at 4 a.m. in the morning with a photo of a thermometer, he was understandably confused. That confusion may just have led to the “Most Hilarious Mistake Ever.”

His girlfriend, Vanessa Marie, sent him the picture and the text because she was running a 100-degree fever (seen in the photo below).

“I said ‘holy fuck’ because I was so frustrated that it was 4 a.m. and I was dead tired, but I didn’t want to go back to sleep until my fever went down some more,” Vanessa told BuzzFeed News.

Izaak read the text when he woke up briefly at 7 a.m. and he FUH-LIPPED OUT.

Photo Credit: Twitter

Oh, sweetie.

“I didn’t get his text until I woke up around 11 a.m. and I just died laughing,” Vanessa said.

As for Izaak, he realized his own mistake a couple of hours later when he was fully awake. He says he “felt like a dumb ass” but tried to just keep it moving.

Photo Credit: BuzzFeed

Still, Vanessa had to share the screenshot on the internet, because who can miss an opportunity to clown their boyfriend in public?

And Izaak got clowned, alright. Roasted, even.

People pointed out that he must have interpreted the reading as “100% pregnant.”

Photo Credit: Twitter

Which means that if the number had been lower, he’d still have a chance!

Photo Credit: Twitter

This unborn baby just can’t make up its mind!

Photo Credit: Twitter

Or perhaps Izaak thought that his girlfriend was having 100 babies?

Photo Credit: Twitter

One hundred babies is a lot. Even 0.7 fewer babies would be better.

Photo Credit: Twitter

Either way, this dude clearly is not ready for a baby. Not even 50% of one, probably.

Photo Credit: Twitter

Which is really fine because neither is Vanessa.

Photo Credit: Twitter

Luckily the two of them are on the same page and still going strong as a couple. Hopefully, Vanessa is down to a normal temperature by now – 98.6% pregnant.

10+ You’ve Definitely Thought About but Would Never Admit

I’ll admit it: I’m definitely guilty of having thought about most of these at least once. Then again, I’m a pretty open guy.

Most people, however, tend to keep their weirdness hidden away. These are the kinds of thoughts most of us would never admit to, because then people might see you in a different (and potentially negative) light.

1. Oooh stealing

2. Yarp

Dictionary.com Wrecks Transphobic Celebrity Who Insisted “They” Can’t Be a Singular Pronoun

Generally speaking, you wouldn’t think that Dictionary.com had a particularly exciting presence online. I mean, sure, everyone knows to go visit them when they need a definition for a word, but I never thought I’d consider their Twitter account a must-follow, and yet here we are.

One reason I’d make such a recommendation? Well, let’s take what happened when notoriously controversial actor James Woods recently put out a not-so-subtly transphobic tweet about gender pronouns.

Woods essentially argued that “they” can only be used as a plural pronoun, and that using it as a singular pronoun is just an invention of “hare-brained liberals.”

Well… it wasn’t long before Dictionary.com stepped in to drop some knowledge:

Photo Credit: Twitter

Boom!

This is hardly Dictionary.com’s first foray into the realm of trolling bigots. They’ve used their extensive knowledge of the English language to serve up tasty burns to all sorts of people. Like Vice President Mike Pence…

Photo Credit: Twitter

The word, by the way, is “sycophant.”

And of course, being the lovable language nerds that they are, they couldn’t let the president slide for his misspelling of the word “collusion.”

Photo Credit: Twitter

Generally speaking, any time the president needs to learn some new words, Dictionary.com is there with a helpful suggestion.

Dear Dictionary.com,

Please, never stop being who you are. Thanks.
