- Portland is a city that exists simultaneously at three different locations, but you never know where
- There's no cities in Texas, it's just Texas.
- California, especially the golden gate bridge, is constantly being destroyed by aliens or monsters or Magneto.
- the US has it's own moon and its fake
- George Washington cut down a cherry tree once and that's why Washington D.C stands for Washington District of Cherries
- the heartland is full of violent groups of armed horses on motor bikes
- there is one man in Florida, he is unstoppable.
