Delaware doesn't exist.

There have always been people who thought it existed. They have written about its presence in the jungles near fabled Kuala Lumpur, in gold mines infested with scorpions on the outreaches of Timbucktoo, of a verdant oasis somewhere outside the howling winters of Tierra del Fuego.

Some have even speculated that it was an insignificant place to the east of Maryland, a place that does not exist on the eastern seaboard of the United States (which also does not exist).

But in fact, Delaware is only a chimera. (And no, it does *not* have any stats, so don't bother to ask, @Veh.) It is an illusion, a desirable object that may in fact take form in a better world, but which has no substantial, concrete reality in this one.

In short, give it up.

*stares at Word* Why shouldn't I know where it is? Didn't I just mention Timbuctoo? I may be insane, but I have useless knowledge up the wazoo, over the road and to grandmother's house we go, bubba.

Timbuctoo was an ancient capital of a great African kingdom ruled by Muslim kings in present day Mali. I'm quite good with useless knowledge. ask me a question and I'll bet i'll know the answer (or not but if not I'll b.s. you)

What colour tie do I have on today?

Isn't Delaware where Georgey Washington crossed over with his cherry tree and bought some wooden teeth from a minuteman?

And don't they do cheese? Or is that Wisconsin?

Um, the question wasn't whether you knew where it was, after you looked it up. You posed the question to me, chief, for no apparent reason.

Sorry fable, I'm not sure what you meant but I didn't look it up.
@Gruntboy your tie is green, you're talking about the Delaware river which originates in north delaware but he crossed it into pennsylvania after raiding trenton then he ran to freeze his buttocks at Valley forge. Delaware is famous for nothing but there are alot of chicken farms.

Tenochitilan was the capital of the Aztec empire and according to legend the aztecs were wandering mexico in search of a home and were promised by their gods that they would be given a sign and on that spot they should build their city. One day on the edge of lake the saw an eagle catch a snake and land on a solitary cactus in the middle of the lake(the symbol in mexico's flag). And the built the city there using an artifical island creating strategy they built an amazing city of reeds. Mexico city now lies on its ruins. Anybody else, c'mon, bring (struts around like a fighting rooster).
