      I thought I recognized you.

      From the photos on your mothers walls.

      From when I visit her.

      For sexual relations.

      I have sex with your mother.

    If there isn’t a minor league baseball team in Pennsylvania called the Squonks, someone needs to get on that right away.

    There’s a lot of fun cryptids in that region. Apart from the Pennsylvania White Bigfoot, there’s the snallygaster and the dewayo. I think the former is because there’s a lot of herons in the area, and the latter is your standard “omg a weird bear” cryptid.
