The world’s most interesting place name
Fucking is a small town in Austria.
Imagine a tourist from that place coming to Malaysia, and the following conversation could transpire:
- Malaysian: hello, where do you come from?
- Austrian: hello, I come from Fucking, Austria.
- Malaysian: [startled, gains composure] You sound like you are not so fond of your country.
- Austrian: I don’t know what you’re talking about, I love my country very much.
- Malaysian: [even more bewildered] Then why are you talking like that?
- Austria: Talking like what? All Austrians like Fucking very much.
- Malaysian: [red faced now] We like Fucking too, but we don’t talk about it openly.
- Austria: What, you mean you’ve been there?
- Malaysian: Of course, most of us have done it, but we’d rather keep quiet about it.
- Austria: [his turn to be amazed] But I don’t think Malaysians like Fucking. It’s too cold for tropical people like you.
- Malaysian: I’m sorry? I thought Fucking’s the same for everybody - it won’t feel cold at all, unless you’re a necrophiliac.
- Austria: Malaysians are very strange people.
Also, it possibly holds the record for the most stolen place name in the world, and of course a most popular object to take your photo with.

What makes it even more interesting is, apparently there is *another* sign next to it, in Austrian/German language of course, which translates to: “please - not so fast”. That sign actually exhorts drivers to slow down due to the presence of a school across the road.
Other interesting place names:
- Climax, Minniesota, USA:

- Dildo, Canada:

On another note, I think most of us have seen this road name, supposedly taken somewhere in KL, but can anyone confirm whether it’s real or fake? If authentic, it surely is Malaysia’s most interesting place/road name.
