jonathan frakes fact or fiction but itās about internet discourse and drama
ādid the puppy girl in the portland polycule really use an opossum to do the dishes? Nope, we made this one up. But a similar incident was rumored to have occurred years ago, our writers couldnāt find any evidence of it.ā
"You've heard the whole story, now what do you think? Did ND Stevenson really moderate his own panel? Did the Welcome to Night Vale crew really pay for their own rooms that night? Or have our writers spent too long in the ball pit?"
"Time to put this architectural nightmare to the test. Did an internet forum user really build an elaborate death trap with nothing but gumption, his own two hands, and almost certainly the wrong tools? Was that drywall really load-bearing? Or is there Something Awful about this story that just doesn't add up?"
is that they almost NEVER actually explained WHERE they got the fake stories!! even that "there was a rumor of it years ago but we couldn't find evidence for it" is incredibly generous to the show itselfā90% of the time, Frakeycakes would just say "Nope! We made it up :)" and THAT WAS IT
