The world's (or at least the US's) longest realistic address
Xho Jingleheimerschmidt
After submitting the form, it came back and informed me that the
address could only be 24 characters long.
Really, who the fuck are you to tell me how long my address can be? If
it told me that their retarded lame-ass system can only handle 24
characters, that would be annoying but not infuriating. But who the
fuck are you to tell me how long my address can be?
No matter how much I detest DBAs and their butt-clenching ways, there
does have to be *some* limit on address lengths. Clearly it isn't 24
characters. But what should that limit be?
What is the longest address (not counting parts put on the second line,
like apt number or suite number) that address standardization tools
(like the one on the USPS website) will return? (I really hope that
this is more than 24 characters)
And no, Iceland doesn't count.

I like my unit number on the main line. Stuff on the second line
tends to get missed.
More than once I've had pizza delivered cold and an hour late because
the driver never looked at the second line of his printout. My
address is too long to fit into the first line of the software Pizza
Hut uses. The driver is always really apologetic and offers to cancel
the order if I don't want the now-cold pizza, but I'm still hungry and
the pizza is there...
It took almost an hour to order my DSL because my telco used an odd
abbreviation for my street name and it didn't come up on any of the
agent's searches.
#137 - Martha's Haven Park NE
....-....1....-....2....-....3
The apostrophe is part of my formal address. In Calgary, the NE is
part of the street name and not a suffix after the city name.
Dropping the unit number, the address is still too long for some
databases.
The whole line is 29 characters with spaces, apostrophe and unit
number.
Without the unit number, it's 22 characters. I expect that my telco
is trying to get by with 20 characters.

I'm sure all of variations on Martin Luther King Jr.
Road/Boulevard/Avenue aren't the longest around, but it's probably the
most common long street name, and 24 characters counting spaces is
impossible unless you shorten his name one way or another.

Huh, they do these things? Wonders never cease. I'd assume there must
be some names out there, though, which can't be safely truncated like
changing the above to NE KY Industrial Pkwy, unless you have a lot of
customized rules.

I've read the names of people with one letter last names, and no last name
at all.

It might be silent truncation, like the DB lookup function only
comparing the first N characters or something. Although, you'd think an
organization so concerned with addresses would make darned sure N was
larger than any conceivable need.
It is my impression that such truncation is out there, but of course
until someone finds a case where (eg) "Sixth Street NE" and "Sixth Street
NW" map to the same thing, we'll never know.

That's what zip codes are for.
I expect that if I gave my address as:
#137
T3J 3Z6
That's all they need to get it to me. Since my actual address is 34

Isn't there a pizza place in your area that can both handle your
address and provide good pizza? Unless Pizza Hut in Canada is
entirely unlike Pizza Hut in the US, its pizza strives to rise to
mediocrity.

As I've said elsewhere, I don't really notice the difference. Pizza
Hut sure beats Pizza 73, whose claim to fame is a memorable phone
number (though not as good as the memorable-phone-number company in
Vancouver.)
73 is worse. Panagopolis is worse. The little indie place in the
strip mall is about the same. Everyone else is enough further that
the pizza is cold by the time it gets here. The Pizza Hut stuff is
OK, so long as it's delivered the first time without the driver going
back to the store saying "There's not enough address here."

There have been lots of movies with 1-letter titles in our own
alphabet. The best-known are probably M (1931) and Z (1969).
[Z was set in Greece, but filmed in French, so it counts as our
alphabet, not the Greek one.] A fourth well-known 1-character
title, although not a letter, was $ (1971).
On the other hand, people named Ng would be still more numerous.

At one point in the early eighties, a German magazine picked up my
address from somewhere and listed as a user group for Commodore 64
computers. But for some reason they put the country as South Africa.
So I would get mail from Germany via South Africa in four days.
Typical cross-city mail would take four days.
I suspect that the mail sorting machines in Germany recognized a
Canadian-style postal code and that the mail never went to Africa.
But still, mis-addressed mail in four days from Europe?
If I type my postal code into Google, it shows an intersection a
half-block from my house. I don't know if it's using the fact that my

Dunno. Calgary's naming standards are (pretty much) that every
street within a square-mile "neighborhood" is either numbered or
starts with the same three letter prefix. Because Marlborough already
existed, Martindale meeded the same four letter prefix "Mart". I
suspect that the "Martha's Haven" corner of the neighborhood just took
a name that the developer thought sounded cute.
"Martha's Haven Park" is the name of the street that ends at the park.
So far as I know, there's no name for the park, though I guess
everyone would know what you meant if you called it that too. At the
T-Junction halfway around the park, there's a life-size statue of a
teenager pushing a preschooler on a swing while a puppy watches. I
guess any of the three of them could be "Martha". There was a tree
planted that could be conceptually where the swing is "hanging" from
after a decade or so, but the tree died a year ago and we have another
tiny sapling there again.
http://goo.gl/maps/YE0C Martha?
(That's the old tree. Tne new one is no taller than the teen)
(The access panel in the forground is for storm drain control. This
area of Calgary has many sunken parks that are used for flood control.
In times of severe rain, they fill the parks to reduce strain on the
river and the plumbing leading to the river. This flood storage
concept is why the circular park is sunken like that and thus why I
call it "the crater".)

That's my neighborhood. I'm a half block to the northwest from there.
The circle is half "Martindale Blvd" and half an extension of
"Martha's Haven Park". The Boulevard continues east and south from
the park.
So that establishes that the postal code design identifies the
country.

I doubt they used automatic postal machines back in the 80s, even
in Germany. They were probably sorted by humans, who may or may
not recognize the code out of memory.
I remember one time in high school, my friend and I sent a bunch
of post cards to a third friend. Wrote down his address and all,
but then added a random country at the bottom. Postage was standard
domestic.
All but one got delivered the next day. The last one took a few
