About
Google Maps Parodies are a template popular on /r/dankmemes in which a person posts a screenshot of the Google Maps directions between two points with humorous, often lewd names.
Origin
On June 17th, 2017, Reddit user paralyyzed[1] posted the first of the jokes to /r/dankmemes, showing the distance between Benis, Iran and Bagina, India, the gag being how "Penis" and "Vagina" would be spelled when their first letter is replaced with the B Button Emoji. The post gained over 31,000 points (shown below).
Spread
This was the first of dozens of posts on the subreddit which made similar jokes, such that when a person reads the destination points, they see a lewd phrase. For example, one of the most popular jokes, posted by BB76, finds the directions between the towns "Succ,""Mahuge," "Dick," and "Biches." The photo gained nearly 5,000 points (shown below, left).[2] Another post by admgnn[3] combined the meme with the Skyrim Skill Tree meme that was also popular on the subreddit at the time and gained over 10,600 points (shown below, right).
