27 of the funniest and most interesting entries from the brilliant ‘Terrible Maps’ on Twitter
We make no secret of the fact that we’re more than partial to a map. Good maps, bad maps, accurate maps, deliberately incorrect maps. It’s almost as though the Terrible Maps account – @TerribleMaps – has tapped straight into our browsing tastes.
They describe themselves as ‘The home of terrible maps with a pinch of humour’, and that says everything that needs to be said.
