It's not a case of being easily offended or other places being boring, but they do add a bit of fun to things, and if you have a problem with it, you can just move... :P

I want to do a cross-country road trip visiting as many oddly-named towns as possible, starting with Humptulips, Washington.

That's about as stupid as demanding only boring vanilla ice cream be manufactured. Who knows? That might be coming up next.
It's fun traveling and seeing different odd names, even tho I don't care for this one posted, but, nonetheless, that's the town's name.

Besides, it makes for a really interesting road trip to hit as many of the oddball-named towns as you can in a certain period of time.

...not because most are boring, but because there is usually a history to the name, a reason for it. Not always, but usually.
And Rape Whistle is not offensive, but I would not want to live in a town with that name, myself.

The names of towns are not quite as weird as the different selections for Answer Choices to this Question . . . But, anyway, I have driven near enough to Jackass Flats that I recall reading the Town Limits Sign . . .

No, it was my spelling - I was laughing so hard. So it's real? Imagine the conversation:

"I come from Mianus" - ROFL
Love it!

Also Christmas - It's in the Upper Penninsula, it looked cool in the past, but it's all run down now, has headless Santas and a casino. Kinda is creepy in the summer.

It looks English to me. It may have started out as a place people went to get it on. You should read some of their poetry from the 1600's. Some of it was filthy. Wouldn't surprise me if it turn out that that was where people went to have sexual relations, kind of like our lookout points where kids park and get it on.

I'm English myself - I'm pretty sure we would have giggled about it in Geography class at school if it was for real! I may have to do some research on this one! Can you imagine if I google the name - what suggestions will appear!

Yeah I googled it, may be photoshopped.

That is a good example. Intercourse was founded in 1754, when intercourse meant, "intercourse," should they change their name now? Why? They picked it for some reason.
I;m just sayin'.
Not that it is not a little funny.
