I admit, I thought this was going to be Australia with those names.

Pretty sure that's a set item in Diablo 3

Or maybe it was the name of a medieval masturbatorium

I can't really recall my High School history textbook

Mani, of Chelakkara

You know it's a small place when everybody in the story is referred to by their first name!

near Wadakkanchery. Photo: Manorama News  Thrissur: On Monday, a massive explosion was reported in a firecracker shed in Kundannur near Wadakkanchery.  One person was critically injured in the incident. Mani, of Chelakkara, was rushed to the hospital following the blast. He was the only one in the shop at the time of the explosion. All the other workers were out, thereby averting a major disaster.  According to local residents, tremors of the explosion were felt kilometres away. Some even reported feeling the impact in Ottupara near Athani, which is around 8 km from Wadakkanchery.

Um, wut?

Your high school history class covered Diablo 3 and medevial wanking, and you don't remember it?

It's not that small---it's a town in southern India of about 29,000 people, in a Thrissur metro area of about 320,000. The nearest city most Farkers will have heard of is Bangalore, about 300 miles away.

How many pantomine horses are in this picture?

Absolutely none. If you see the one I see it's a total illusion or you should check your glasses and look closer.

I'm thinking Mani wasn't well liked.  "Hey guys, let's go get some curry." Zszszezszszzzzszzzzzzzzzzssssss

Given India's population, I'd call that a hamlet.

That's actually a perfect onomatopoeia for the situation.

FTA: According to local residents, tremors of the explosion were felt kilometres away. Some even reported feeling the impact in Ottupara near Athani, which is around 8 km from Wadakkanchery. The doors of shops in Ottupara were closed shut due to the blast's pressure. The tremor, as per the accounts given by locals, lasted for several seconds.

An odd detail.

Decent odds the reason you've heard of Bangalore is due to a certain eponymous explosive device.

Which seems appropriate.
