And me who has applied for a University in Trondheim. Maybe I should go for the Unis I've applied for in one of the other cities.

Relax. The real hell is in England, only they spelt it incorrectly and its referred to on most UK maps as "Hull."

Hmm... we've got a Hull in Canada. It's the sister city (on the other side of a river from) our national capital.
There is also a Hell in Michigan, I believe. Maybe Missouri? What do I know about US geography?
Edit: It's in Michigan.

Hey, Hull's not that bad. There were these massive vicious seagulls there when I went about 10 years ago. And naturally, massive vicious seagulls who will take food from your hand (whether you like it or not) is a good thing. No, wait... it's a bad thing. You're right, Hull sucks.
EDIT: Hammerfest! I pronounce that to be the coolest name of any city in the world!

That (apart from being in Austria) would be the best place in the world to live. The opportunities for amusement would be endless.

.... And "He's the Fucking Mayor."
"Where are you now, dear?"
"In the middle of Fucking."
Or, if they ever have a population boost someone could start a reproduction decreasing campaign entitled "Stop Fucking Fucking!"
Ok, I'll stop now.

Proof - if any were needed - that the guys behind American placenames are dirty, dirty people.

Maggie's Nipples? There's simply no excuse for that.

I'm sure Maggie has one. An excuse, that is.

Well, sure. But they must be pretty impressive nipples to justify naming a town after them.

I recall there was a street called Cockburn street in Edinburgh.

I read a book by a guy named Alistair (or something) Cockburn.

In medieval London there was a street called Gropecunte Lane. It was called this for exactly the reason you would expect. Unsurprisingly, it has since been renamed (by the Victorians, I think), to Threadneedle Street, which is where the Bank of England is now situated.
EDIT: And I believe Cockburn is pronounced "co-burn". Hell, if it was my name I'd certainly pronounce it like that.

On the subject of changing your name's pronunciation, why do people with the surname Death pronounce it De'ath (daay-ath)? Death is a great name.
Fred Death. Very Rock.

Fred Death sounds like the name of a lead singer from a metal group. I think people should add apostrophes to their names more often. Dil'bert Ev'ans would be such an awesome name.

Re: the town of Fucking, Austria...
I have been told by someone I know that there's a town in South Africa called "Wanking", which, as anyone who speaks British English will realise, would be a reasonably embarrassing place to live.
But I don't know whether to believe it or not. A quick Google search for Wanking in South Africa only presented me with a list of gay porn sites, which I'm sure doesn't accurately reflect the tastes of that country as a whole. Can anyone prove or disprove this town's existence?
Mythril: Do my eyes decieve me, or is there a city on that map of Norway called "A"?
