The city limits signs are both on the same post. The city jail is called The Amoeba; it only has one cell. The McDonalds only has one Golden Arch. The 7-11 is a 9-5. The mayor had to annex property to eat a foot long hot dog. The New Years baby was born in October. Main Street is one block long and dead ends in both directions. There's no place to go that you shouldn't. A "Night on the Town" takes only 11 minutes. All the kids are members of 3-H. There is no need to alphabetize the phone book. There's nothing doing every minute. At the last beauty contest, nobody won 2nd or 3rd The ZIP code is a fraction. Second Street is in the next town.
