The picture is a screenshot of a conversation between two users. A user named “king-jesster” says: “Worldbuilders naming towns: I named this town Elygwe'meth which means "Where the Dearly Beloved King died next to his Lover" in the language l invented and also a combination of the Old English word for diamonds and the Maori word for apples since that's their main exports. People in real life naming towns: I named this town Big Falls cause big fall there” A user named “bumblebeebats” says: “me poring over a fantasy map: Shit I already used that name for a town, I can't use it again, that's such sloppy worldbuilding. real life maps: There are six rivers in Britain called the River Avon, which means River River, because when the Romans asked the Celts "what is that?" they replied "a river?" and the Romans nodded and jotted it down”
