'Sup, pogs!
Let's all go to the movies, and let's all see the same movie, and let's discuss it here.
Gabe loves fan fiction. You Can Make It Up features his own personal alternate adventures starring some of our favorite characters.
After watching Death Sentence, a terrible movie starring Kevin Bacon as a father in search of vigilante justice directed by Saw's James Wan, Gabe embarked on The Hunt For The Worst Movie of All Time. This is his sad journey.
Dreams really do come true!!!! I am going to buy a house there, and I am going to put pink flamingos out, and I am going to wait for the magic!
Me too! Let’s be neighbors.
I will steal your flamingo in the middle of the night.
Those flamingos better be beige, otherwise the garbage monster will come for you!
I want to believe this wasn’t photoshopped.
My mother lives around there! My best friend from high school actually lives on Mulder. TOOK A WHILE, the internet.
You know they are not the only characters with their own signs:
True story time: My for-real name is Jerrad, and I have a brother named Parker (a Parker Brother, if you will). There is an intersection close to where I work, Jarrod Ln and Parker Way. My mother denies that the parking lot on the corner is where we were conceived, but I have my doubts.
I think we’ll be able to verify her story once we check out the guest book at The Facetaco Hotel.
i thought facetaco was your real name
See… you ARE a faceLIAR!
Does that mean I’m not getting the “cake” option?
Your parents made facetaco in a car?
Since Can’t Hardly Wait, my favorite movie (NEVER FORGET) has been a topic of discussion lately:
You know, William, in this light, you somewhat resemble David Duchovny.
William, trust no one.
NOBODY DRINK THE BEER! THE BEER HAS GONE BAD!
It means I gots a ninety-two percent chance of embarrassing myself. I roll up on that shorty be like, “What’s up yo?” she be like, “You don’t know 20 different ways to make me call you Big Poppa” cuz I don’t yo.
Yo, I must have died and gone to heaven, ’cause I see an angel sittin’ right in front of me.
Are you cryin’? Oh, no, baby, please! You are far too fine to look so sad.
I better double bag it! I don’t know where that girl’s been!
Damn ! She’s gonna think I got that premature evacuation.
I…am…SEX MACHINE!
When I first got an unlimited texting plan, I’d tell my friends (with the accent), “I…am…TEXT MACHINE!”
I guess you had to be there. It was hysterical, I promise.
If this street corner is for real, it is in Ottawa, my city of birth. I recognize the city logo. But honestly i’ve never heard of/seen these streets before.
Then again, I spend most of my time on the internet. So thank god there is a medium where a street corner’s pop culture references can reach its targeted medium.
*audience.
jesus christ.
You’re just a secret Patricia Arquette fan, as we all are
I don’t know if it’s really awesome or really lame that I could tell that from the street signs.

Well Google Maps says you’re right and this intersection exists in Ottawa. Apparently the truth is out north.
Didn’t they film in Canada? (Eh?)
Yup, in the Vancouver area, until Season 5. And before you ask: yes, I am a nerd.
Whoa! I’ve lived in Ottawa forever and I’ve never seen these either. Weird seeing the Capital on Videogum.
Me and my girlfriend monster, areyoucereal, are also from Ottawa! THERE ARE LOTS OF US.
It’s true everybody!
You want to believe…. AND NOW YOU CAN, cause I, Official Videogum Monster Representative for Orleans, Ontario, Canada (self-deemed right now), can verify that I have seen these signs, and even that my best friend from high school still lives on Mulder.
About a half a mile east of there Mulder Ave. turns into Pervert Way, which intersects with sexual addiction Rd.
So, if I understand you right, your directions would begin, “Now, if you just go down on Mulder…”
“Now, Mulder’s a little long, so you’ll be on it for awhile. But if you’ll know you’ve gone too far if you come to a twist.”
Leoni Way used to be inaccessible via Mulder Ave due to a roadblock, but they’ve patched it up.
This is a really bad part of town. With Red Shoe Dr on the south side and Californi Ct on the north, it’s absolutely lousy with hookers.
In my defense Notsewfast, I was pretty busy with my hooker for about three minutes.
You:
true story also. my whole family was on vacation once, driving on country roads. we once got out of the car to take a picture of the intersection we were at, just cause it made us laugh – the corner of Woodcock and Kitchendick roads.
I once employed a Mulder and a Scully who worked at two different places, we never successfully got them to work together, total fail on my part. Failed in a similar fashion with two kids with the last names “Smallwood” and “Woodcock”. #badboss
I, however, was successful in getting people with the last names Gay, Butts, and Johnson to put their names down together on a signout sheet once. It was a proud moment.
I hope it was Seymour Butts.
Tom Lantos used to be my congressman. He served from 1981 until his death 2008. As the only Holocaust survivor to serve in the US Congress, he died after a long life marked with strife, but also political and personal success. He has two daughters, both of whom are married to successful men and have several children. Those son-in-laws names? Timber Dick and Dick Swett.
In my hometown, there’s an honest to goodness Hindquarter Court.
My dad and I always just referred to it as Horse’s Ass Street.
There’s a town not too far from me that is actually named “Buttzville, NJ.”
that sounds about right.
The Boss does not approve of this comment.
Man, I used to be so into Scully Way when I was a teenager. I remember staying up night, rummaging around the then puerile internet for a picture of this street without any cars on it. I haven’t thought about Scully Way in a long time.
This was me with Captain Jane Way.
I thought I found a picture once like that, but someone just photoshopped the sign onto another street’s pole.
That sounds dirty
CONFIRMED
You’re my fact checking cuz
(barely audible) Awwww..
Pavement reference? Geddy Lee?
oooo posh neighbourhood
Is the guy creepin’ over the fence an X-files character?
That man is way too large and photoshopped to be real
Becoming a Canadian. I will move there now.
Oh man. I was born in Ottawa and was the biggest x-files nerd in the world. This is clearly my destiny.
Funny side note, I’m pretty sure Scully is the reason my hair is red and the reason why I’m a gay. God, so smart and hot.
This blog should be required reading for headline writers everywhere. New target audience for the videogumeverywhere mission.
Wait – that intersection exists in my hometown and I’m only just finding out about it now?
It’s a newer subdivision, so they would have named the streets after the show came out.
Oh. Wait. It’s in Orleans. [Pause while I wait for the one other Ottawa person to get it].
Nope. Not moving there.
But, dang, someone managed to sneak that paperwork by the government?
I must find this person and marry them. Because they are awesome, but also because if they can get away with that I bet they could totally make it so that I could get a grant for my great clothing line for chimps (that I just came up with now, but am already in love with more than my actual job).
In Nashville, apparently. Choose wisely.
Here in Toronto, Church Street IS Gay Street.

In democratic Canada, Church Street IS Gay Street.

In Soviet Russia, this gets way more upvotes YOU.
There is a neighborhood that has the following streets: Hickory, Dickory, Dock, Mouse, and Clock.
There is also a street near my house called Manasses. It is the best street.
New Orleans is truly an amazing place to live.
Oh hey, Ottawa! There’s an intersection near my house that is “Festive” and “Celebration.” It makes me sad that I don’t live there, though my only solace is that I live on Gotham Private (I’m secretly Batman). Ottawa clearly has the most messed up street names. Case in point: Paul Anka Drive.
Hey Ottawans — there’s also a intersection of Bonnie and Clyde in Nepean… didn’t know so many of us were gummers.
