Maybe Antarctica (updated)

Creating a surface-to-idiot missile is actually quite simple*. Testing it is next to impossible because the guidance system is constantly overwhelmed with targets. * No, really. It is! I designed one and had it about 95% working. I think there was a problem with a switch though, because every time I turned it on the darn thing would blow up on my workbench.

Update: Thanks to Zoe pointing out the spelling error (now fixed). Maybe it wasn't the switch...

1 We had the same problem when we were developing the MSG (Moron Sensitive Guidance) system, but a few hours on the Capital Beltway gave it lots of exercise.

2 Suface? Rhymes with Doofus?

I've found in my own case such things were usually caused by a problem between the headphones.
