Comment win. It irritates the hell outta me when some of these require additional information that isn’t provided. Then again, maybe I should just chill out and look at the funny pictures.
This is sort of a double fail. The other street name on the side reads “Smoketree Rd.” Smoketrees are native to the southeastern United States. The actual tree in the picture, though, is a type of palm tree, which is native to the southWESTern United States.
That’s not true. Palm trees are native to tropical and sub-tropical climates. There are native palm trees along the Eastern coast that goes up into the Carolina’s at least and all along the gulf coast.
“Be sure to check out the Quibbler’s shocking expose’ of conditions at Azkaban under Warden Fudge. The Dementors may be gone — but the torture still goes on!”
Wow! I read “Nine Tailors” as a college freshman in an elective literature class that analyzed mystery novels. I was hoping you’d see that comment and recognize its significance.
You don’t disappoint!
It’s my understanding that it was banned in the same way that any book that offends someone is. Which is pretty much every book in existance. I think that it was banned from all religious type schools, frowned down upon by churches (witchcraft is the devil blah blah blah), etc etc. I know it wasn’t banned from mine…but, then again, I went to a public school with less then 50 people in the graduating class, and less than 200 students in the entire high school.
I’ve told them: call it Orobanche, but no, they wanted to have it the “uncomplicated” way. Everybody would pull jokes about Orobanache. Why is nobody listening to me? That was the last time I’ve been to the city council of Fuckingtown, Bonerland.
BFF! Quit showing off your head(s)! Did you ever get the universe back together? I’m kinda bored hanging around in nothing with nothing around to do, plus I’ll need to go to work tomorrow to get a paycheck pay for all the new Christmas presents to replace the ones that no longer exist, (thanks to you imploding the damned universe), and I’ll be damned lucky if the stores have anything left except for primordial gases and a few wisps of hydrogen plasma otherwise.

Well, if you find “broomrape” interesting, what about “naked broomrape”, “hairy broomrape”, “carrot broomrape”, and “ox tongue broomrape”? Gets the imagination going, doesn’t it.
Probably too late to reply, but this gives a new meaning to that “Find your porn name” game. First pet and street name. Imagine, I’d be Daisy Broomrape…….*shudder*……..
Welcome to the bottom of the comments section. This section is devoted to all those geniuses who scrolled all the way to the bottom of the page to add a comment without reading what had already been said, only to say something that had already been said. You will find no wit or humor down here, just redundancy.
Well, according to Wikipedia, there’s a place in England called Gropecunt Lane, and is apparently one of the first times the c-word was used in the English language.
Ah yes. Good ole Broomrape. I lulz every time I drive by it. Sadly, this is only one of many horribly named streets in Lake Havasu. I guess it’s not surprising coming from a town in Arizona that inhabits the actual London Bridge…because the London Bridge holds so much significance here…

It’s real. It’s the corner of Broomrape and Smoketree in Lake Havasu City, AZ. You can pull it up on Google Maps.
Avoid brooms at all costs in this street!!1!
And the other street name is Smoketree… that explains a lot.
Why, yes, that *is* where the jail is. How did you know?

What were they thinking?!
Probably “hmm… this is different…”

Comment win. It irritates the hell outta me when some of these require additional information that isn’t provided. Then again, maybe I should just chill out and look at the funny pictures.
But is it completely different?
This is sort of a double fail. The other street name on the side reads “Smoketree Rd.” Smoketrees are native to the southeastern United States. The actual tree in the picture, though, is a type of palm tree, which is native to the southWESTern United States.
who in the right mind think its ok to call a plant broomrape?
That’s not true. Palm trees are native to tropical and sub-tropical climates. There are native palm trees along the Eastern coast that goes up into the Carolina’s at least and all along the gulf coast.
You are dumb.. the southeast palm trees are native there too… and btw, this picture was taken in Lake Havasu City, Az… retard
I believe this street was named in tribute after a spell went horribly wrong at Hogwarts.
“Be sure to check out the Quibbler’s shocking expose’ of conditions at Azkaban under Warden Fudge. The Dementors may be gone — but the torture still goes on!”
I thought Harry Potter was banned in America? Heehee.
You’re thinking of Hari Puttar.
Is this better?
*blink blink*
MUCH better!
*POUNCE!*
That rings a bell!
That first post of yours just didn’t ring true.
I’m resonating strongly now, though!
P.S. I just saw your reference to Sayers’ “Nine Tailors” on the other thread.
…Trying to describe my reaction, but…
Words won’t do it.
But then, I’ve always been more of a “show, don’t tell” kinda gal.
*grin*
Wow! I read “Nine Tailors” as a college freshman in an elective literature class that analyzed mystery novels. I was hoping you’d see that comment and recognize its significance.
You don’t disappoint!
I hope I never do! But I just about fell over when I read that.
You constantly surprise me…in the best possible way.
(Hee…! I just realized that “Nine Tailors” agrees with us, that tintinnabulation results in a “little death”!)
It’s my understanding that it was banned in the same way that any book that offends someone is. Which is pretty much every book in existance. I think that it was banned from all religious type schools, frowned down upon by churches (witchcraft is the devil blah blah blah), etc etc. I know it wasn’t banned from mine…but, then again, I went to a public school with less then 50 people in the graduating class, and less than 200 students in the entire high school.
But the word “Sorcerers” was banned in Canada, which shows with ZERO doubt that we are still in the dark ages. Watch out!! Words are evil!!!!
What, seriously? I don’t think the US ever got around to banning particular words…
There are plenty of words you can’t use, Sporkie. You can only refer to them by using their first letter, like “the F word”.
There ought to be a writing nearby on a toilet wall that says: The broom accidentally me.
Were you washing your hands? Didn’t you see the warning sign?
Yes, but, see, he…uh….accidenty fell back on it while washing windows in the nude.
Wow. This is the name of a real plant, but … sheesh. Seriously? They named a street this?
It’s like a weed. They keep changing the name but it keeps coming back.
The usual suspects have denied the charge.
I like the “Smoketree” street better myself. Id much rather go down smoketree then broomrape

“Uh, I’m sorry, Ma’am, can you repeat your address one more time?”
I told you 100 times! I live at 420 Smoketree right on the corner of Broomrape! Pay attention!
Notice how the other sign says “Smoketree.”
Remember when she fell on her butt.
I’ve told them: call it Orobanche, but no, they wanted to have it the “uncomplicated” way. Everybody would pull jokes about Orobanache. Why is nobody listening to me? That was the last time I’ve been to the city council of Fuckingtown, Bonerland.
This is really disturbing. The intersection of Broomrape and Smoketree. Where is this town anyways? I need to avoid going there.

It’s not rape if you ask for it!

The broom had come hither eyes.
And was swept away by the attacker.
Unless the broom WAS the attacker–in which case, somebody was broomhandled.
And if the broom gets pregnant as a result of the rape by a broom, will she give birth to a litter of dusters?
They breed like dust bunnies.
But keep in mind the broom probably hit a dead end.
Those bristles in my hair
That sly come hither stare
That sweeps my conscience bare
Its broomcraft
On the corner of Broomrape and Smoketree,
I met a besom so comely;
Whilst I stood quite dumb,
She thrust up my bum
Then I hobbled away quite glumly.
And was dressed provocatively.

you do know that this is how Jeffery Dahmer bit it in prision right. He was ambushed in the prision bathroom while cleaning and two inmates took his broom away, stuck it in his anus and kicked it into his upper torso.

really?
This one is a WIN actually. After all, Broom Rape was a dead end for him!
Brings to mind that Linda Blair movie…
For me, it brings to mind Blair. Full stop.
brings to mind the blair witch project (?)
Oh no! This is wrong in so many ways.
Actually, according to the fail, two ways.
Two ways to FAIL.
is that down the street from “Smashing my head with a 2X4 to gets me hot” Avenue?
No, actually it’s a block over from “Stickfuck Blvd & PuffWood Ave”.
I won’t dignify that question with a comment.
… aw crap.

i imagine somebody spelling his address to, say, courier
Someone must have misheard the phrase “Get a room!”, which resulted in this street being named as it is.

Is this the opposite of a clean sweep?
depends on your definition of clean
columbine was a clean sweep
WHAT. THE. FUCK.
YOU. SPEAK. LIKE. COMIC. BOOK. GUY.
OR. MAYBE. LIKE. WILLIAM. SHATNER.
Broom ‘ER rang
I’d have to say, as ways to keep the tourists out go, this is a WIN!
Anyone realize the other street is Smoketree?
THAT was some really “Crucial” information!
Yeah, we all knew that.
Well, if you find “broomrape” interesting, what about “naked broomrape”, “hairy broomrape”, “carrot broomrape”, and “ox tongue broomrape”? Gets the imagination going, doesn’t it.

As per Google Maps, Broomrape Ln. is in Lake Havasu City, AZ. Please note that this is the same city where they transplanted the London Bridge.

It’s more properly called a “cul de sac” (the butt of a bag).
Its in Arizona.

Not fail in here. The both, smoketree and broomrape, are a kind of plants.
Probably too late to reply, but this gives a new meaning to that “Find your porn name” game. First pet and street name. Imagine, I’d be Daisy Broomrape…….*shudder*……..
Welcome to the bottom of the comments section. This section is devoted to all those geniuses who scrolled all the way to the bottom of the page to add a comment without reading what had already been said, only to say something that had already been said. You will find no wit or humor down here, just redundancy.
First!!! (reply ever!)
can I get a pizza delivered to 69 broomrape ln please
HAHAHAHA!! Did you know that broomrape is a type of plant??
And that Smoketree is too!?
It’s fitting that Broomrape Ln is a dead end.
Hey, this is in Arizona!
Quidditch!
No no no. it’s a kind of a plant.
pretty much grew up in havasu. the whore of the town literally lived at the end of this street. it made it so much better.
smoketree is also a school. and if you go all the way down it ends at the park/lake. random facts for nothin.
Mmmm! Maybe you should have taken a pole.
Does anyone know where this is?
No, and no one else does either!
But, how about Everyone Else? *makes the sign of the cross*
Why would you say that?
*hides behind cross*
I see what you’re trying to do there.
Well, according to Wikipedia, there’s a place in England called Gropecunt Lane, and is apparently one of the first times the c-word was used in the English language.
WAHAHAHAHAHA!
This is the BEST named street in Lake Havasu City, AZ!!!
Living on the corner of Smoketree and Broomrape?
Giant Gummy Bears. On a steeck.
lake havasu city, arizona prevails again
i’ll be its hard to get a pizza delivered to the corner of Broomrape and Smoketree.
Unknown to most, this is how J.K. Rowling originally envisioned quidditch.
Ah yes. Good ole Broomrape. I lulz every time I drive by it. Sadly, this is only one of many horribly named streets in Lake Havasu. I guess it’s not surprising coming from a town in Arizona that inhabits the actual London Bridge…because the London Bridge holds so much significance here…
This is in Lake Havasu City, Az
Havasu has two weird street names..
Broomrape & Charring Cross
It actually makes sense, because when you smoke trees it makes you want to rape brooms. Right? Am I alone on that am I?
Okay, but the cross street, Smoketree, RAWKS!
lol “dead end”
if it didnt say dead end it wouldnt be as funny lol!
raping brooms is a dead-end road, my friend.
The Corner of Smoketree St and Broomrape Lane are in Arizona, viewable from Google StreetViews, but there aren’t any views clear enough.
sounds like a place to avoid -swerves car into another road-
The name of your street!
I grew up on Broomrape Ln. in LHC, AZ
Behind Broomrape is Smoketree, no doubt the people who made these signs were smoking some bad-ass tree.
OMG I LIVE IN HAVASU. I KNOW WHERE THIS STREET IS. LOL.
Am I the only one who noticed the other road was Smoketree? that has to be a Win
How could they?
its in Lake Havisu City- I saw it and could not believe it
OH MY GAAAAH
better keep my eye on the broom for a while…before someone rapes it!
