The whole geo-location thing has always bothered me - for security reasons so obvious only someone with their head buried in the "cloud" doesn't understand.

This phrase stems from the film "Anchorman". During the seen where Ron is giving his new co-worker a tour of San Diego, he tells her that the city's name means "A Whale's Vagina" in German. This was such an obsurd suggestion that things to this level of proposterousness are therefore refered to as "Whale's Vagina."
Seems the name has stuck, at least in the TwitterVerse.
