I couldn’t help but roll my eyes at their attempts to make Hell Money (as in, the actual joss paper, not the episode) sound more spookier than it should be.

this might be taking things too far just to join in, but it *is* based in truth, so…

I live in the City of Townsville and it is nothing like how it is shown in The Power Puff Girls

Yes, seriously.

1) it doesn’t snow here
2) when Fuzzy Lumpkins^ beat Mr Mayor^ in the election, Mr Mayor^ had a unsuccessful go a federal politics and eventually left politics. Fuzzy^ was re-elected mayor at least twice (I think) but retired at the last election.
3) The City of Townsville is actually in Australia
4) we don’t have that may tall buildings

etc etc etc

^ yes, I’m serious – ok, I’ve changed the names *but* the long long looooooooong time Townsville mayor *was* beaten by the challenger from the ‘rural’ parts :-p

I lived in Northern VA when the show was on so I was constantly nitpicking the setting. Too funny (and maybe a little sad) now that I look back on it.

I’m the same way: Criminal Minds has done several episodes in Oklahoma (Oklahoma City, Enid and Durant. Yes, I remember them!) Not a ONE was even remotely like what Oklahoma really is! Hello, Durant does NOT have a public transit system!

I can’t decide if panel 6 makes me want to read more or fewer Jason Shiga books, apart from the one I’ve already read.

In reply to Tom. Yeah, but you can't bury anyone new at Mission Dolores, and the Presidio is a strictly for veterans. There's also a pet cemetery.
