Ridiculous (or ridiculously pretentious) street names plague suburbia. A few examples from the Chesterfield, MO area suffice to illustrate: Graystone Manor Parkway, Manor Creek Drive, Royalbrook Drive, Towercliffe Drive, Chateau Village Drive. (The obsession with manors and royalty is telling.)
This example from Memphis, TN, however, really takes the cake.
Boeingshire Drive. As in the airplane manufacturer and a quaint locality in Great Britain. Could anything be sillier?
