After admitting we're all cowards, we move the superthread to the Dutch town Doodstil. Literally translated, deadly quiet. The town of doodstil has 111 villagers, the current temperature 16,2 degrees Celcius and it's also the name of the bridge over the Boterdiep, a small lake near Eemsmond, Groningen, Holland. It's about 20 km north to the city of Groningen.

The name most likely originates from an old Dutch name for a guy; Doode or Doede. It's most likely from Friesland, and those guys are weird anyway, so why not have weird names aswell? According to the dutch wiki page Doodstil should mean Doode's bridge, but I've no clue where they get the bridge from!

There's another story and that says that this town once didn't have a bridge, and a coffin had to be transported by a small boat. The boat capsized and the coffin ended up in the water. To prevent this in the future they built a 'bridge for the dead'.

In may 2005 Doodstil was officially voted Holland's most beautiful name for a city. It beat names like Waterlandkerkje(waterlandchurch)and muggenbeet(mosquitobite)!

So guys, pay a little respect for the dead and be deathly quiet :wink:

Doodstil - Wikipedia

Doodstil, Doodstil is Meer Springlevend dan dood stil !

oh, and just for ownage, that little road sign says Trekweg, simply translated as wankroad :wink:

Ahh, I see. We've been to roads before, even addresses - 8 Hiscock Road here in Melbourne. Roads are probably a goldmine of hilarious Superthread destinations!

Guys don't know if you are aware but there's a road next to Hanover Quay called

Blood Stoney Road

Ha. We should keep that in mind for when something happens in U2 world. We already have a few up our sleeves: The Edge, Pitcairn Island; Bono, Arkansas; Clayton, Ohio.

... now I want to see if there's a Hercock anywhere in the world.

I bet it's got some perfectly innocent etymology. Like how Cockburn (pronounced "co-burn") gets the 'burn' part from a Scots word for a small river.
 
Mullen, Nebraska?

Ha, I knew there'd be one somewhere. And there are:

Müllen Neuried, Ortenaukreis, BW, Germany
Müllen Finnentrop, Olpe, NRW, Germany
Müllen Oberkirch, Ortenaukreis, BW, Germany

:uhoh: that'd be morally wrong....

:wink: they always claim it's innocent.. we know better!


does there exist a place called Whiskerburn?

:drool: I'd like to live there
 
Baaahahaha, Hercock is in fact a last name! I just found a William Hercock Ltd in Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire.
 
We've been to businesses before, e.g. the Boggus Motor Company, so I totally think we should go to William Hercock Ltd one day. Especially since it could be Bill Hercock. :uhoh:


Oh, and hey Wild! :wave:
 
Guys I had this huge list of Irish place names to show you and the page refreshed :sad:

Now we'll never go to
Crane Lane
or Little Ship Street
or Sheep Street
or Of Lane
or Mountjoy Prison :sad::wink:
