Unintentional Penis of the Day: Dildo Island

Yes, Dildo Island.

So where is Dildo Island located? In Newfoundland, Canada.

No, it isn't shaped like a Dildo. It's shaped more like a kidney or a dead duck. So how the hell does a place get a name like Dildo Island?

According to Wikipedia;

The place name "Dildo" is attested in this area since at least 1711, though how this came to be is unknown. The origin of the word "dildo" itself is obscure. It was once used to reference a phallus-shaped pin stuck in the edging of a row boat to act as a pivot for the oar (also known as a "thole pin" or "dole pin.")

Wow, what a let down.
