in the middle of the map: church of ballwax (Pallivahan kirkko)

but it is near Turku so it isn't so shocking. reminds me of one turku- joke:
How do you know that Icelandic people have sex with all mammals living in the Sea? From people living in Turku.

Can we do that? Pressure Intel/Nokia that the name MeeGo is too stereotypical of certain accents that we're worried of racism calls and its repercussions???

I don't get it.

Anyway, we (as in Turku) also have "Twice" (kakskerta) and "Blowjobville" (Suikkila)

As I wrote three days ago on Fakebook:
""Happy End" was already ridiculous, but I'm missing words after seeing "La Grand Finale" as a brand name for cheap toilet paper."

The full label name was bu si niao (不死鸟), but on the bottleneck they just printed 死. I think it was Lidl. They had it in their flyers, too. 不死鸟 (undead bird, Phoenix) makes sense, but 死 alone means death.
