Orange, NSW ( AU )
Nominated as one of the shittiest towns in Australia.
Does it also have one of the shittiest climates in Australia ?
Probably the snowiest larger population center in the country...central western NSW at altitude betweem 800m and 1000m asl.
Shit Town: Orange
Australia’s most ungoogleable place, Orange is an utter waste of space famous for just about everything except oranges, with the only problem being that all of its claims to fame are about as impressive as a pair of soiled undies. While Orange is clearly a terrible name for a town, it’s not quite as terrible as its original name, Blackman’s Swamp. The city was initially named after an early settler, but following outrage from inner-city lefties, it was renamed to honour a Dutch religious extremist.
Orange is known for producing a range of fruit including apples, pears and grapes. It is far too cold in Orange to grow oranges. The name is at least appropriate in another sense as Orange is home to a staggering number of rangas, which the city celebrates with an annual Ginger Pride festival. Conveniently, this event is scheduled for 31 October, which allows it to double as Halloween for normal people who are rightly terrified by masses of gingernuts.
Aside from fruit and firecrotches, Orange is also renowned for its thoroughly unpleasant winters which make it the snowiest city in the country, the amount of snow rivalled only by the amount of ice. Meth-heads and morons are as bountiful as apples in Orange, with torching stolen cars doubling as a popular pastime and the only way to stay warm.
For those not of a ginger or criminal persuasion, there are no attractions or entertainment options in Orange. Disappointingly, the city has squandered the opportunity to erect a giant novelty orange on the main road through town, an unforgivable and frankly un-Australian oversight. Googling ‘things to do in Orange’ returns the result ‘Did you mean: things to do with an orange’, which turns up some very disturbing images. Adding a ‘NSW’ results in ‘Did you mean: things to do in Bathurst’. Orange you glad you don’t live in Orange?
haha...see these pics ? we don't think they're 'cool'....we think its 'shit' ! lol
