“We just have to wade through a few creeks up ahead, but don’t worry, they’re all very normal and in no way suspicious. No, I’m not going to let you look at the map, but I promise, they’re fine.”

“Hey, wanna go for a hike? No, I know I’m always tricking you into going into haunted houses and graveyards, but I promise I’m over that now. There will be absolutely no ghosts this time. Just a nice pleasant hike up a hill I discovered.”

All the images in this thread are geographic features from the US National Map (apps.nationalmap.gov/viewer) whose names are officially recognized by the US Board on Geographic Names: www.usgs.gov/us-board-on-...

Theres a lil town in Tx called Uhland and i love to imagine the conversation that settled on this. "And what should we call this parcel of flat farm area?" Bill, who is fed up and exhausted from naming things on a Friday afternoon just before happy hour 'Uhhh Land?' "Bill youve done it again!"

Reminds me of the pre-Airbnb time we booked a cottage in the Scottish lowlands that the brochure referred to as something pleasantly along the lines of “Summerfield Farm Cottage” and when we arrived, it turns out it was actually called Foul Bog.

A short drive north of where I am in Vienna there are two villages Oberstinkenbrunn and Unterstinkenbrunn. Upper Stinking Well, and Lower Stinking Well.

Why tf does that road sign have square corners but is pretending with a white border with fake rounded corners? I can't cope with this.

I went white river rafting in Wyoming in 2022. There was one particularly terrifying rapid, a precipitous drop. I only found out afterwards that it's called "Sphincter".

I prefer my creeks with no flesh in them, actually.

I dunno, “fleshy creek” sounds considerably more concerning.

My "no flesh creek" t-shirt is causing a lot of questions already answered on the t-shirt

Pro tip: Camping along anything called Mosquito Creek is a big mistake.

I found a Nameless Lake and had to use it in a Lovecraft pastiche.

I think I’d rather go to “No Flesh Creek” than “Flesh Creek” though…

That second one is probably normal aside from the sulfur pit.

It has been several years since I have known the touch of another. I find myself up No Flesh Creek.
