Economical Talk, Florida edition

When I made fun of Atlanta earlier this year, I hadn't yet heard of this crazy place. I suspect it of secretly being a corn maze concept taken too far, or something from a puzzle book.

This is hilarious, and the longer you spend with that map, the more hilarious
it gets.

That had to be done on purpose. By a sadistic OCD urban planner.

On the one hand: Wow!!

On the other hand: I think this is a little... less bad. They're better organized into clusters. All the "Hiddens" are in the same place, for example, mostly parallel to each other. All the Cliffs are in one compact cluster, all the Ridges in one north-south swath, etc. At least once you know which group of street names you want, you've limited it to one small area where they all are. It's also less mazelike: In many cases, you can find almost all of the streets of the same name class just by taking one or two cross streets and going all the way through the cluster.

The parties responsible for this abomination need to be put into a cage death match with Frank Gehry. Winner gets shot.

Three-way cage death match. Winner still gets shot.
