Lake Superior?
Not a map, but things I've seen on the roads in Boston:
- Left turn only from left lane, straight or left from 2nd lane, straight or left from 3rd lane
- Green light and perpendicular traffic coming to me on the cross street, also going, because they also have a green light
- Two lanes, surprise! Lane markers go away it's one lane, not defined who yields, you guys can work it out
Navigated Boston a few times using only a road map (long time ago). My spouse and I always cite it as proof our relationship can handle anything.
~~Were you able to find car parking in Harvard Yard?~~
Couldn't even find Havard.
I'm from Boston and this is painfully accurate. Especially the last line. My last job was a delivery job and me and the other person were constantly questioning if it was one lane or two.
That website gave me cancer
In Kentucky, between Louisville and Frankfort, there is a city called "Simpsonville" and it's right next to a city called "Shelbyville".
It even clearly enumerates that they're rivals, right under Finchville!
I just like those moments on Google Street view when there are people looking right into the Google camera.
Oh, like me? When I saw it coming and threw my arms up and stared at it as it passed.
Oh that was you? I thought I recognized you on that corner of Figueroa and whatever
Florida
"This is Florida! The whole goddamn state is shaped like a gun! You can't walk to your mailbox without tripping over three of them. God forbid you sell one to a cop!"
There's a town near where I used to live called Garbutt, it has less than ten residents.
"I live at the intersection between pain and suffering. And no, that's not metaphorical"
Not "crazy" per se, but west of the Mississippi, cities are set up on a grid, whereas eastern cities look like their planning was established by throwing a plate of spaghetti at a wall.
Finland has many, but the big penis-shaped river is pretty good.

I can’t remember where it was, but I used to work at a title company. We processed a refinance on “Whiskey Dick Ln”.
